Sun Sand Sea Poem by ONElia AVElar

Sun Sand Sea

Rating: 3.9


Honey from the sky,
sugar under feet,
warm turquoise tea.

I let my senses revel in
a territory of tranquility.
In modern temples
of sun, sand and sea,
where all believers,
all tourists-pilgrims
lie almost nude
instead of going
down on knees.

I joined the multitude
becoming follower
of antique Epicurus'
school in Greece.

What a joy to receive poetic news from Onelia! I find her in this spiritual, marine and sunny Greece and I recognize her Authoress to whom I would have many things to say. Greece lives in the myths of those who love it

I dont like this poem. It doesnt make that much sense and the alluding could be prettier with its vagueness.
