World Wide Wednesday in Evia, Greece

Posted in World Wide Wednesday

“We travel,
some of us forever,
to seek other places,
other lives,
other souls.”
– Anais Nin

Evia

No sun a shining
When the storm clouds
Fill the horizon
Time to sail ashore
Before the all mighty Thor
Hits his hammer

The wind’s subsiding
The mist arising
It’s all calm
After the storm

Blue skies
Blue waters
No need,
To go any further

Yell it on the Mountain (five)

“It isn’t the mountain ahead that wears you out;
it’s the grain of sand in your shoe”
Robert W. Service 

Yell it on the Mountain

A picturesque scenery
Real postcard material
Awaiting most eagerly
So immortalize this miracle

Yell it on the Mountain (three)

it’s the grain of sand in your shoe”

Yell it on the Mountain

Blue
Is the colour today
Keeping
The cold grey at bay
Listen
To nature’s music play
Move along
With your hips in sway
Take a load off
For a while stay
Surely,
This
Is the best way
To spend
This gorgeous day

Yell it on the Mountain (two)

“It isn’t the mountain ahead that wears you out;
it’s the grain of sand in your shoe”
Robert W. Service 

Yell it on the Mountain

From the deepest of valleys
To the highest of mountains
For what better place to dilly-dally
With your heart a pounding
Just move along the shaleys
Enjoying nature and its surroundings

Yell it on the Mountain (four)

“It isn’t the mountain ahead that wears you out;
it’s the grain of sand in your shoe”
Robert W. Service 

Yell it on the Mountain

Rain
Filling the plains
Rain
On the mountains

Pounding
The dry ground
Leaving
Permanent stains
Wherever
Rain remains

Yell it on the Mountain (one)

“It isn’t the mountain ahead that wears you out;
it’s the grain of sand in your shoe”
Robert W. Service 

Yell it on the Mountain

On the highest peak
Of the tallest mountain
You will find what you seek
So go on, give us all a shouting
When you finally dip
Into that youthful fountain

The Lighthouse

Photography and Poetry

“Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors” African Proverb

The Lighthouse

The Lighthouse
A white house
A shining beacon
If you’re seeking
It will guide you safely
When venturing bravely
While following that breeze
Through the unknown seas
