As a-battered-by-the-storm ship Desperately seeks a peaceful harbor to find So A wondering mind, lost in a sea of opinions Strives with truth to be realigned! © Demetrios Trifiatis 04 April 2019

Always find something new to ponder in your musings Demetrius. I am half way through my chemo with no real side effects. Fingers crossed I can stand for Mayor again and get E-scooters off our footpaths to give blind and visually impaired hope. None of us are sprite as we think. Best regards David in NZ

I hope your health is improving and you are as good as new. I pray you be as strong as before and to win over the elections! Myself, too, runs for the European Parliament! Even I have posted a poem you may find interesting : Defending Democracy. You might like it for I explain what Democracy is all about! God bless you! Take care of yourself dear, David!

I try to depend on God to decipher the true meaning of what is false and truth for me. Very good verse my friend and the photo is just lovely

It is peaceful and serene my friend, Vijay! It is a beautiful spot that I visit often and during summer I swim and go to an open movie theater there! Very beautiful. It is also a beautiful spot to see the moon rising out of the sea! Thank you!

Oh such wise words dear Demetrious but it is often so difficult to become realigned with so many opinions whirling around in ones mind. You always instil such peace and tranquility with your poetry - thank you so much, with kindest thoughts Ann xx

With so much fake news and half truths out there it's difficult sometimes to find out what is really the truth, but we form our opinions on what sort of person we are and the life we lead. Then we have found our safe harbour. Love the picture, is it Myrtos beach by any chance? Tom
