First Photos from Greece!
.
I just came back from an unforgettable trip in Greece. I was in Athens, Santorini, Naxos and Mykonos. I took more than 5000 photos. Here below are the first pictures I already selected, edited and posted (click on any of the following images to enlarge it and to know where exactly it was taken). I'll be sharing more pictures from Greece in the coming weeks/months. Thanks for watching.

Engaging
Hands of
Earth


A poem by Peter S. Quinn

Engaging hands of earth - you touch us still
Around and round in every transparent dream
Each bleaching falling glisten in quietness seem
Dear sweet autumn that my yearnings fulfill
Your smooth earthen mixture of shadings to thrill
With stars in your hair of yellow brown stream
Summer of gold is now leaving in gleam
Giving to dim every song in its skill

Withering dark to the changing grass confer
With ground tincturing that dresses the leaves
In the placid of days that are going by
Now is the time of full harvesting year
Just before tomorrow comes in with grieves:
Crack of dawn calm and the red clouded sky

Sunset, Sunrise

Sunset, Sunrise

By Peter S. Quinn

It's sunset, sunrise,
Life's an eternal surprise,
And yellow dark skies!

God is here dwelling,
Like the Gospels are telling,
Dark oceans felling!

You, beautiful sky,
Enchanting afar and high,
As the time flows by!

Golden Heaven gates,
Distant between nights and dates,
Sun behind clouds waits!

Moments in twilight,
Still between dark and bright,
Showing strength and might!

Each song is singing,
All the glory in bringing,
Before it's springing!

Where will moments go,
After they stop its day glow,
Abide night will grow!

Let there be light more,
Step into the sky parlor,
Daybreak's open door!

There's no end to this,
Space is unknown abysses,
Life a breathing kiss!

Nothing new or old,
Every has been before told,
In clay it is mold!

The Promised Land
A Letter from
Land's End

.
By Kevin Jared Hosein
.
Here I am at the edge of time,
Sitting on the brink,
Looking forth at a sunset
That comes and goes in a blink.
And there's a moon up there
For everyone I know
And a plant that bears butterflies
Row by row.

Here I am at the edge of real,
Standing on the plain
Where masked children dash in circles
Along its emerald mane.
And there's a rainstorm
Going on in the desert of snow
And everyone in the bright moonlight
Watches the thunder glow.

Here I am at the post office,
A letter to send,
An invitation for you to come
Join me in Land's End.
The letter reads,
"Close your eyes, count to three,
Then remember everything
I always said you were to me."
