You sail into the port and are initiated into the mysteries of the water and the stones.
Small seas scattered all around you: Katergo, Livadi, Agios Nikolaos, Agali.
In the Castle, in Chora, the lime of the houses self-complacently mixes with the winds of Pounta as they are carving the rocks.
In your long walks to Pano Meria the blue all around surrounds you.
And at the end of the road the sunset glows revealing the light of the Aegean.
It is an elixir and herbal remedy this mixing of salt, wind and sun.
A silent landscape like a hymn to time, counting the days with the fluttering of seagulls.
