I hear a bird’s song
I look to see where he is
Then I see sweet bird
His song is music
His notes bring joy and sweet glee
I am happy now
He flies away, then
I am alone with my thoughts
I wonder once more
I hear a bird’s song
I look to see where he is
Then I see sweet bird
His song is music
His notes bring joy and sweet glee
I am happy now
He flies away, then
I am alone with my thoughts
I wonder once more
i love the beach breeze
that blows all over my spirit
i am a new soul
it’s good to be new
energy abounds and how
i fly like a bird
i close my eyes now
and behold the freedom sweet
i leave satisfied
little fish swimming
tail moving fast and then slow
swim away to be free
don’t nibble me please
nibble on small weeds
they offer much more for you
swim fast little fish
fast enough to carry you
safe and sound to home
sea shells are heaven
because they sit and relax
all different shapes
sitting in the sun
only knowing peaceful times
happy to enjoy
i sit in the sun
the shells and me happily
enjoying in Peace
water brushes coast
coast is happily cooling
smooth coast once again
i can feel the glow
the soft sand lying in glee
water carressing
i close my eyes now
i am the sand happily
feeling the water
Into the sea
slowly entering
a welcoming coolness
of moving jelly
now and again
a fish
sliding
across my
squirming leg
A lonely dog
walks along
a lonely shore
lonely gulls
only two
still fly
in the hope
of more to
come
and lonely no more
sea shore
I love visiting places of worship and I was thrilled to find a very old church, St.Lazarus Church. I also got to see the old city market, both a must see. The seaside is something else too, there is a very long road with shops and cafes , then opposite is all sea, the whole length. Well I can tell you I was not far from Heaven!
I went back to the cafe at the bus stop and had a “mixed” sandwich for 1.50 pounds. “Mixed” means ham, cheese, and a lot more, hunger can really make food super delicious. I went home tired, happy and broke. YES! Other than that shoe shop, it is expensive in Cyprus. Money actually flies out of your wallet, not too much self control when you are happy.
Happy to be “home” , a cool shower, a good book, coffee and AC, is a great balm for the hot sticky Mediterranean summer.
Oh, I almost forgot, it began to rain and I went into the pool, very relaxing indeed. The owner was near by and said, ” Well ,it didn’t rain in winter, now it rains!”
To be continued………
Heaven to me
white washed buildings
small homes. rectangles of life
leading down white washed steps
and Heaven
looking down
with another blue heaven
waiting for my footsteps
the gently lapping sea
Two blue and white chairs
Keeping company
with a blue topped table
near to a blue gate
that opens
to the blue sea just
below,
wind gently blowing
the sweet salty smell
all over my senses
