Come Closer To Me- Love At First Sight A Music Video Collab with Maria Williams

This is a true-life celebration of love ballad. A chance meeting on a Greek island becomes a whirlwind romance. From Athens’ vibrant Monastiraki markets to a Taverna where you can experience the lively traditional, passionate Greek culture and music. Join Demetri and his spirited Sismo Dance Company to the strains of his Bouzouki. This Original bilingual (English/Greek) musical experience blends the magic of love at first sight with traditional and Mediterranean flair, to moonlit beaches, it’s a tribute to all those who’ve ever fallen in love fast, felt deeply, and dared to dream.

I spent just one day in Athens and naturally I visited the Acropolis. As we walked down the hill, we found a cave with restaurants and Greek food and wine. Delicious and not to be forgotten.. You wrote a love romantic poem with astounding music and Maria and Ron constructed a beautiful video. Great work. Much appreciated. Hugs to all.

Jennifer did you write this song? This is just brilliant, definitely the best song I have heard in one of Maria's videos.. In fact the voice doesnt even sound like A! Love the beat and the lyrics.. The video as always is done so well.. Ron is getting very good at these.. You and Maria must be soul mates of a vintage kind to produce something like this... well done..

Hi SO, I was so happy to have you visiting, thank you for your awesome compliments, this was my first attempt at a song, and I am so impressed by Maria and Ron and their amazing videos. There is a sequel to this video, but sometimes sequels don't work out, what do you think, have you ever written a 2nd part to a poem and it has been a flop, sometimes this happens to films or books, I respect your view, so pray tell. I hope you are well my friend. Blessings Jennifer.

Dear Jennifer, your song radiates warmth and devotion-each line feels like an embrace, honest and full of longing. (thanks to Maria and Ron for the Video) The blend of English and Greek is so heartfelt, making the love story universal yet deeply personal. I felt the sincerity in every promise and the joy in every shared moment. How beautiful it is to love openly, to cherish and be cherished, completely and truly. Spring Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Jennifer how exciting it was to see and hear the music and video of your Lyrics in both English and Greek. The atmosphere was full of excitement and celebration. Such a lovely couple was in the video. I love the romantic scenes and the combined dance of everyone in celebration. Maria and Ron as always created an amazing video. The Greek translation allowed maybe those that did not speak English in Greece to understand and enjoy the video in their native language. Great collaboration by everyone.

Michael, thank you dear friend for al lthe wonderful things you say about the three of us, but I Return all the wonderful compliments to the three of you, and the two awesome videos you have on poetry soup and you tube - we re both very lucky to have such innovative friends such as Maria and Ron. Both Greeks and non Greeks loved that i combined English and Greek, saying that it was the first time they had seen an English/Greek song sung bilingually. Humbled that you faved this song. blessings, Jennifer.

Dear Jennifer,it was such an honour to collaborate with you on this beautiful piece. Your romantic lyrics were utterly captivating—poetic and heartfelt—and pairing them with the bilingual blend of Greek and English brought such charm and soul. The music flowed effortlessly, and Demi’s bouzouki, with the subtle digital touches, truly brought it all to life. It ticked every box for me—pure magic from start to finish. Hugs
