ΧRYSOULA FOUFA

 

 

Depiction

 

On the rough sea waves

nothingness seems aloof.

On the white sea bird wings

meaningful life exists.

Aspirations paint the hue of the horizon

as time lies on the playful clouds.

Over my shoulder

your shadow

pays the price as a broken mirror.

Overflowing feelings come by -

even the water hears my voice.

Isn't it a sudden occurrence?

Alas!

Love is hidden in the depths of the ocean.

 

Courage Acrostic

 

Calling for strength

On every day hard times

Using for weapons

Reason and emotion

As a constant traveler

Gambling

Endless experience
