Poem: The Dignity of a Woman

Poem: “The Dignity of a Woman”~Debbie Papadakis. She strutted as she walked away…. from a situation that was complicated in every way…. The rain poured however it did not bother her in any way… With that look in her eye… She didn’t seem to feel … That she would miss  anything and would  want it with Zeal…. In fact she felt trenched with it all… Being used and abused… It  took  ...

The Earth can cater for every one’s needs.. not Greed

Poem: “The Planet Earth can cater for every one’s needs…not Greed!”   So you think you can have it all… Not caring of the damaged caused.. So you think you have a war to wage… Killing people and the environment in every way! So you think you can get more than you need… Not measuring but grabbing with greed… So you think  you can take it all… Killing wild life your way to pave!! Wake  ...

Vytina a village of Archadia in Greece.

Poem: “Vytina a village of Archadia”~Debbie Papadakis. Vytina a Village a ‘ VITRINE’ in Archadia… Which has traditional stone-built buildings,  With heavy wooded window panes … Narrow-winding streets that catch the light, my dear!.. The heavy wood-aromas in the air… Of pine and elm forests oh so near, Bees hovering also fly by.. As the Honey from the honey comb drips on the pine! Where farmers in  ...

I saw them all as jewels of Greece; with character and individuality. Some islands were bear, with  ...

The AD years in the Dream…as seen.

by Leave a comment
Poem: The AD years in the Dream…as seen. by Debbie Papadakis. The wheels turn ‘n’ glide, In the streets as I ride! Feeling pictures that are seen, Raising ‘n’ raging the conscience, a scene not serine! “WAKE-UP!” shouted under bridges and on the walls, On buildings that are so cold! Up loaded graffiti glares, At tight-lipped faces that are not there! The living-dead have come a-live, As they take  ...
