Seashore, Paphos, Cyprus

Paphos is a city on the southwest coast of Cyprus, the Mediterranean island. Inhabited since Neolithic times, Paphos has several sites relating to the cult of the goddess Aphrodite, whose mythical birthplace was at Old Paphos (Kouklia). New Paphos is the modern city that incorporates the harbor. It’s also home to Paphos Archaeological Park, encompassing ancient ruins of tombs, fortresses, theaters and villas.

“The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea” Isak Dinesen

Water

The water spitting seal
Made out of steel
It’s teeth will reveal
Mouth agape
It takes its shape
Against the landscape

“This life is like a swimming pool. You dive into the water, but you can’t see how deep it is” Dennis Rodman

Water

In the deep blue pool
There are no rules
Just dive in, like a fool

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water” Rabindranath Tagore

Water 

When you take a dip into the cool ocean
Your body’s surrounded by nature’s lotion
While your mind fills up with pure emotion

Red

Seeing red?
Hoping for something else instead?
What can I say
I like to play
Red is red is red
Maybe you should have stayed in bed
So like it or not
Here are the shots

“There is no sincerer love than the love of food” George Bernard Shaw

Snack Time

A meal most perfectly balanced
Rye bread, cheese and a plate of salad
Almost worthy of a ballad

Simple food for complex minds
The lunch break perfectly timed
Nothing unhealthy here will you find
