POSTARD FROM CORFU

GREEK NIGHT IN THE TAVERNA

Adonis, an 18-year-old Greek God

Leads me onto the dance floor.

He smiles – I melt - I CAN DO THIS!

Slow, gentle bouzouki music

floats on the balmy evening air.

He smiles again. I CAN do this!

Gradually the tempo increases.

Doni’s lithe muscles crouch and spring,

ever more frantic. I CAN’T do this!

(My ouzo is getting warm!)
