CYPRUS

Roman mosaics and Phoenician tombs

Byzantine castles and Venetian walls

Pine clad mountains and valley’s full of blooms

Windswept wild beaches raked by sudden squalls

Vineyards lay across the land like green shawls

An island of custom and tradition

Yet this stunning land lies in partition

Churches to the south and northward mosques lay

A land in need of redefinition

For reconciliation people pray

Hi Dory, Cyprus, island of sun, history and mystery. Also an island of beauty when one follows your beautiful words. The beauty of the island shines in your words. I shall always see Cyprus as your words show it to be. Sorry it took me a while to get my comment done my friend. Better late than never, right? A Lovely write my Friend.
Love....Vladislav.

Hello Vladislav,
I did not know much about Cyprus until i did a little research. It does sound like a beautiful island. It is so sad to see it partitioned.
Thank you for dropping in and your encouraging words.
Love Shane
