Forest Fountain

Walking through the fragrant overgrown mountain trails on the lush Greek isle of Ikaria, Hot sun fades to shadowy dusk, turning craggy forest kings into silhouette art forms. On this moonlit eve, we discover a Roman fountain flowing with golden forsythia. Poetry Contest submission: Three Line Poetry Sponsor: Debbie Guzzi
