The Bench on Afionas Headland
« on: April 09, 2013, 02:49:56 PM »


I love the photograph
so I thought you may like to share it with me in this little verse.

The bench on Afionas headland a wonderful place to be.
Just to sit and relax in a morning or maybe take afternoon tea.

The Rock that is Gravia Island is only a stone throw away.
View’s of Mathraki and Ereikoussa bring joy into my day.
 
The deep blue Ionian Sea that makes me give a sigh.
And in the distance Othonoi reaching towards the sky.

The Bench on Afionas headland sits there waiting for me.
Should you want to share it, your welcome please feel free.

Take the warmth of a summers day, watching the waves as they dance and play.
Then smile as the sun starts to fall away and brings a close to another day.

Just as the sky begins to glow red, you will know your mind is free.
To dream of the bench on the headland a wonderful place to be.

I concur with the views, sentiments and comments. If you have never just sat on a bench staring out towards Gravia, you haven't yet lived.
