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
little fish swimming

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
Going back to the room I had a sandwich, and juice and watched T.V.
I try to relish every moment of my life as time is precious. So I swam went up to eat and rest and get some T.V. entertainment, then, time for a walk. I can tell you and you may have guessed by now, I love love love Oroklini. Peaceful, calm, picturesque, a variety of homes: old homes that take you back in time, new homes with tiny colorful gardens and little pools to soak in the sun, small apartment buildings and yes villas too. Take your pick, I sure would like to. I feel this kind of place can cleanse your soul the way a desert would. After the walk you somehow feel lighter, stress can be quite heavy.
Well that’s it folks, time to say goodbye until we meet again, Sayonara
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
Sea side heaven
As waves roll and frolic
Trying to see if maybe
They can reach
Shore
This time
They almost reached
The playing toes of a child
Waiting Waiting
For the wave
To come
And play with her
Next one,
She says to herself
Next one
Will reach me
If not
Maybe I might
Go in
Or out
A bit further
And play
The wave
And
I
