Greek Evil Eye

GREEK EVIL EYE Beware, beware my friend of the evil eye, It is mere jealousy that others see and spy, So always have one in your home, Often seen in a Church dome, An evil eye can bring you harm, make you cry! An example or two, a pretty dress you wear, Someone (normally female) says how beautiful dear, You don’t give it much thought, Say thank-you so much, bought, It yesterday, go round the corner, nail does it tear! You have told many people you are going overseas, That afternoon is a very cool breeze, You forgot to bring a jersey, Lucky you they say, rather pertly, You get bad flu, cancel your trip as you sneeze! So keep one somewhere, in Greece worn on a chain On your hand or your neck, fashion statement, it’s plain, Give many to my non Greek friends, They wear it proudly, know it transcends Any jealous or evil thoughts will go down the drain! P.S An evil eye is a bead or a charm, which can be worn or hung up in a home. It can be regarded as an ornament or as piece of jewellery.
