Melodic blessings to all … two compositions, inspired by surroundings …

A. BEAM ME UP …

Mediocrity,
the new normal,
where thinking is conspiracy,
and conspiracy is religion?


B. OPLOCRACY

Charos,
spreading presence,
on venues and roads;
Elysian Fields crowded,
season unlike others


C. CHECKED IN

La jeune fille “valedictorian,”
seeking validation;
Baggage checked in,
23 kilos plus mental

D.  WHERE WAS THE ORACLE?

Caveat emptor,
goods were damaged,
DNA backfiring;
Decades later, 
incompleteness,
random spurts of maturity,
on bumpy road of challenges

E. GAIA’S TAPESTRY 

Coulours of majesty,
carpeting terra firma;
Metal bird,
Ikarians leading,
as Helios smiles

0.

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



I.

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


II.

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


III.

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

O M

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

“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?

Μύρινα Λήμνου (Myrina, Limnos)

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

A very informative and interesting short film on the history of the Parthenon, by Costa-Gavras. The film is shown at the Acropolis Museum.

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

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?
