A World of Blue

Everything is blue
The Aegean, the sky, the table, the wine glass
What a place to spend a week or two
But all good things end, alas


A bar overlooking a beach
Sun beds and umbrellas abound
Do you think heaven is within reach
Or has paradise been found


As the sun sets the sea is glistening
And as ships sail into the horizon
Do you feel the Gods on Olympus are watching
Or are you just fantasising


Will you ever think of returning
To this island when your trip is through
Or will you just spend your days yearning
For a world of blue.
