Aegean Sea
The sea never dulls me; it lulls, calms and relaxes me.
It sends me into a trance, like when I dance, in a state of peace.
In stillness, I feel free, serene, glee; yet, aware of things I hear and see.
The Aegean Sea cruise in Turkey rendered spectacular views, while we
were amused and bemused by our guide

Moonlight and Plankton In the Aegean

preparing for tomorrow when
We trek to Hozoviotissa

nor fate to ever yield,
to walk among

mountains light grey, all cosetted by the blue sea floating by me above as I swallow the
the white wine in tired alacrity at the end of long day of making love, watching the **** of
sailing yatchs going
