One Day

I close my eyes feel the sun on my face hear the sounds of the sea smell the cooking of Greek food I lick my lips all around the sounds of Greece a language that is familiar to me a smile on my face But, it is only a dream and I open my eyes I see green fields feel the sun on my face hear the sounds of birds singing smell shepherds pie cooking hear neighbors speaking English a language that is familiar to me a smile on my face one day........ I will see the Aegean Sea eat Greek food speak in my mother tongue feel a hot Greek sun on my face and know I survived.
