 **Yia Mas to Peter who suggested this
poem~ means to your health..with
a glass of Retsina. Or whatever Greek
expression you choose or one I do not
know.

Disclaimer:I am no master of the the Greek 
language at all nor a Hellenic history major.

My heart beats Greek, if you listen quietly with love 
and no judgement. If you could see my heart~ it
is the colors of the Greek flag.

Thanks again Peter!

Very nicely done! Most enjoyable way to learn about Greece is to listen to Nana Mouskouri - in any language! Aloha! Rico

Rico~attending Greek events' I love. I do not have WIFi, so cannot access you tube much. There is plenty of Greek Radio that works with my iPad. Being with Greeks is a real big deal to me. My birthday is March 13th, my daugher on the 10th. Going to a Greek Restaurant on my birthday..yes! Panagiota
