Wonderful friends...

 ...blessed moments of joy,

birthday energies,

Winter´s draught outside,

and inside warmth between humans...

*

Far away from Agios Stéfanos...

...but similar message,

piety, humility 

and the light from gothic  arches and romanesque walls,

Trinity Church and the mighty cathedral of Upsala,

towers of 119 meters,

and burial site for saint and royals...

*

Bumpy dirt road later...

...brings us to another quiet world of yesterday,

a bygone time of past hellenic days,

and touches of modern times,

yet scarce with humans around,

but a landing site for refugees...

*

Inside "restoration" is...

...something we all need to keep an eye on,

but is easily forgotten,

and since it is there where life begins and ends,

it is worth considering,

like Agios Stéfanos being resurrected...

* 

In the night of the blue...

...boats and ships at rest,

we being the late diners,

familiar faces have left,

going in for landing...

*

The ordinary, precious moments...

...not so much on anyone's priority list,

but staying with you always,

from morning view before work 

and early messages of tomatoes and rucola,

serenity by the sea and siesta time tranquility,

to meetings with friends and sharing joy...

*

The big sea, skerries, friends and tranquility...

...living by the sea is not new to me,

new shores everywhere

but all seas are connected,

like the humans we are...
