My Mediteranean Dream

My Mediterranean Dream


Into your quiet arms and protectful ways, I wish to race.
Across lost decades and never want to be traced.

To settle in Thessalonki, and dance the stars away with thee.
Drinking Mavrodaphne or even plain, fresh lemoneny tea.

In a Taverna, white, with handsome, blue shutters open wide.
To wear a Greek keyed ring and yet never be your bride.

To walk home to our villa when the day is just brand new.
What do you say, my one and only, forever, agapi mu?

He nodded his happy, wavy head in positive consent.
We barefooted down sparklingstones in decadent descent.

Mavrodaphne is a Greek wine.
Agapi mu= my love

I just love the Greek touches in this, Pangie. I can just picture the white buildings with blue shutters like a Greek flag, so beautiful. Your Greek wine and tender lover's phrase add even more realism to this love letter to the man of your dreams. I enjoyed the dance and the decadent descent, dear one ~ John
