rosined bows weeping
small ballerina leaping....

>On our local radio they are talking about getting seats on trains. Greater Anglia who have been awarded the franchise for running trains in East Anglia, are promising great improvements. This reminds me of a couple of incidents that happened many years ago. But hey...

Whilst the huge auditorium focused on the plushness of seat,
Lost little children were dying in a street
Far away, out of sight
Out of view of money’s might

Whilst the missionary was struggling to make ends meet
Well-dressed ushers reached out to greet
The sheep that in droves every Sunday...

I throw my exhausted body
Drained of all its strength,
On the small blue seat of the big yellow bus
My body loosens it’s muscles tense.

As I push the window open,
The strong wind gushes in,
Engaging my russet hair in a sprightly dance
To it’s enchanting hymn.

The auric sunlight falls...

Stacked against the odds 
in a gamble things go well - 
I make the only play I have,,, 
with the cards I’ve been dealt 

I’ve never been one to settle,,,
 for sitting in the cheap seats - 
when the bright lights of the good life,,,...

Front row seats to an exciting hit show
Especially coveted by their biggest fan
An enormously popular 1960’s fellow,
Or a talented group like Wu-Tang Clan
Not noted for singing soft and mellow.

The squirrels scamper in the snow
So when they climb the tree,
A dust of whiteness flutters down
Like lace embroidery.

It settles back from whence it came
Until the game resumes
And once again, the threat of havoc
From each squirrel looms.

I'm watching from the windows
On a bright white sunny day
And...

Seats in Starbucks seem quite scarce
‘Cause laptop users hog ‘em.
Dirty looks won’t make them move – 
Perhaps it’s time to flog ‘em.

Sitting in a precious seat
For hours seems quite piggy,
Even if they’re doing work
Or tryin’ to get jiggy.

Other people want to sit
When sippin’ brews or...

I feel through senses
You feel common sense 
I avoid the fences
You embrace the suspense

It wasn’t a choice
To follow the leader
I too, want a voice
Not just a repeater

But we have assigned seats
In this overpopulated class
I can look, but not touch
I’ll always be last...

THE MOST SEATS

Sitting left and sitting right,
For the silence moment you must be quite,
Being a citizen is the most seats.

You must be called a king, sitting on the throne
You are not, if people die because of you
You must be called a leader, leading forward 
You...

Hail, the vale aches from retraced tattered feet going hither and tither the rambunctious brood, as dawn's golden sleigh race into a sanguine morn, of languishing warmth to sheath from the fleecing errant breeze, of yonder mountaintop, amidst a blanketed respite snow made heavy from...

A perimeter with firm block seats 
For teenagers patrolling the streets; 
More needed to strengthen their gossips;
Jokes about Dads who wash plates in ships!

Seat blocks for kids from the Broken Home.
They might on them lie: consoling foam, 
Dream of saving marriage blessed in Rome: 
Their...

Stained blue seats lay docile
Awaiting to be snuggled 
They give it their all
to be very comfortable
But lingering heat kills it....

Check all the seats in the front of the bus.
Check every seat, and don't make a fuss.
Check the back seats and the front ones.
Check all the seats for lost daughters and sons.
Check under the seats when the day has ended.
Check on the seats, don't leave...
