Mirtoo Sea had been waving gently
The Blue Eagle had been flying over Tower Nomia
Wounded warriors had been drinking water from Glauke Fountain
Herodotus had been writing romantic poems on Meteora

Heavy rain poured down on Mount Pellion
Theofilos captured amazing inspirations in Delos
In Valley of the Butterflies Despina ate mandolata
When thunderstorm came Poseidon stood still on Korax Petra

Had Zakynthos been struggling in Leuctra Battle?
Ithomi had been crying softly under Kallistefano Tree
Near Marmari Bay, Sophocles had been walking tenderly
Medea had been waiting for the snow in Valley of Tempe
