Locals do not make headlines...

... the island of island is in pain,

but not giving up,

it's splendour still shining, 

all between light and shade,

but locals are suffering and pulled up with their roots,

the outside world not paying any attention,

 should be ashamed,

but anarchy remains...

*

While many refugee workers...

..... prefer to act as if they were heroes,

 standing in the water up to the waist,

helping refugees ashore,

(because it sure looks better on photos),

they leave the waste to the locals,

and one can ask who authorised the dumping,

and when thinking was abandoned...

*

Stilleben Street....

... in Molivos,

and Theo's door is closed,

but inside there, 

busy hours, busy days,

by a very creative mind...

*

Walking...

in a watercolour world...

* 

Looking for Xmas....

...and coffee time with friends,

during busy days,

are great things at this time of the year,

in the peaceful village,

watching December swimmers cooling...

*

Time to gather...

...on yearly Xmas market,

young and old, 

from many places around...

*

A walk by the shore...

...such a strange silence, 

like a dream walking here,

 when knowing the dramas,

taking place every day

*
