Ouzo Nights By the Bay

Ouzo, oh ouzo,can make your head verily spin But it made me feel like I was morphing into Aphrodite's twin! And, more potent were your eyes stare and long eyelashes. Dancing the Greek soldiers dance, OPA and in proud sashes. Decades down life’s river, in the boat of life, we are one . I close my eyes, still humming ‘Thessaloniki” loud and strong. In a blue and white colored dream, I still caress your hand, As we did long ago to a taunting, lively Bozouki band. I shall blow out the gardenia candle and say good-night, Loving you was, and is, forever~my soul’s precious delight.. Agape mou! Panagiota Notes on Ouzo!
