EQUILIBRI

 
Some relationships, 
cultivated over time
crashing, not fermenting

Others, from recent encounters,
nourishing life


People, things change,
reasons abound;
Behavioral weirdness
exposed at unexpected moments


Life, too short
to live in shadow of negativity

There is no equation,
but that of life’s ingredients,
the perfect mix, a theory

MAKE TIME FOR LIFE!!

We always think we have more time.” Conclusion: Postponing quality of Life (and making excuses) exponentiates regrets. Read article HERE

Στην ωραία παραλία
ο καθένας μία ιστορία
Κορτιζόλη πιά φτάνει,
η χαλαρότητα μάλλον χάνει

Πότε, μα πότε θα ξεφύγει
η ανθρωπότητα από το φίδι;

At the beautiful beach,
each individual, a story
Cortisol overload
as relaxation suffers

When, but when will humanity escape from the serpent?

ΕΛΕΓΕΙΑ ΣΤΟΥΣ ΦΙΛΟΥΣ
ELEGY TO FRIENDS


Ο κύκλος στενεύει,
μας φέρνει πιο κοντά

The radius tightens,
drawing us closer

Πόσες φορές
αλλάξαμε μάσκα,
θεατρική συνταγή
με παρενέργειες;

How many times
did we change masks,
theatrical recipe
with side effects?

Μην πάτε γυρεύοντας
όταν η ουσία
η έμπνευση
μπροστά μας είναι

Don’t bother searching
when the substance,
the inspiration,
are in front of us

Ευχαριστίες
που τονίζουν
τις λέξεις,
το περιεχόμενο

Thanks,
accenting
the words,
the content

Ο Ήλιος κάνει το γύρο του,
η Σελήνη ακολουθεί
Κύκλος ζωής,
μας θυμίζει
την ομορφιά που εμπνέει

Helios makes his rounds,
Selene following;
Circle of life,
reminding us
of beauty around us

Ευλογιά ειρήνης, υγείας
με συναντήσεις

Blessings of peace, health
with frequent gatherings

Οδυσσεας
Odysseus

HEPHAESTUS’ BLESSING

Desert,
framed by azure and green;

Tavern,
overlooking nature’s beauty,
serving its bounty
with smiles and flavor;

Limnos welcomes
with magical landscape and soil,
inhabitants reflecting
blessings of Olympians

Limnos

HELIOTROPIC HIGH-NOON Ikaros Revisited


Bear, out of hibernation,
eagle and eaglets,
presenting united front;
Solipsism,
derivative of short term

Phaethon, rebellious son
Ikaros, kindred spirit,
we are all interrelated

Helios, closer than ever
youth, chasing age,
age, chasing immortality,
rendez-vous with melting point?

CERBERUS REDUX

Tartarus want ads,
applicants not in demand;
Hades and shareholders,
relishing fourth-quarter earnings

Creativity crying,
searching for peace,
to spread embrace
and aura

Ο, Π, Ρ, Σ, Τ
what are we to expect,
as amoebic spores
eat away at our continuity

Birds singing,
Aeolus joining
with A.M. breeze
Elpida smiling
