The Classics

The agora is filled with merchants.

A philosopher orates his lesson for the day.

Wine is given to the thirsty man.

The temple pillars stand straight and tall.

Flowers are woven into garlands

and then lain across the statues.

Salty sea air wafts up from the harbor

as I overlook the waters from my hotel balcony.

Fellow tourists wear their colourful outfits

filling the streets on this festival day.

I smile in anticipation!
