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 cottages the morning greet..

With an Industry so complete…

Making pasta from the wheat and with eggs..

Traditional food store food sustaining life!

Climbing the mountains every morn…

Catching the sun at the break of dawn…

Collecting the herbs and teas you see..

In preparation before the snow kisses the trees!

In the centre of the town of Vytina …

There is a tall church of Saint Tryfona, worth to see…

The architecture in harmony with design…

With the paintings of the saints,

leaving you with a sigh!
