HARD CHOICES AT APHRODITE’S





You guided me

(oh so professionally)

Through Aphrodite’s path


So many marvels to watch
Chorals, fishes, caves
Volcanic sands, beaches, pools
Mysteries and beauties
Boundless fantasy.

If you wanted to know
The most precious treasures
that (by your hand)
I found there:
Imagination,
that sense of play
that keeps haunting me
the laughter
the freedom

Hey, but Aphrodite’s
Was a tricky one
Indeed,
Very tricky that path was:


The guide's beauty
Competed heavily with
All wonders around us
Making difficult
a full appreciation
of detail

Stay still, mermaid/angel
Stop at least a bit
So that the humble 
tourist of waves
Can either take a breath
Or exhale his last one

For ever
