Filtered light... dapples pebbles
beneath the surface of turquoise
seas... foaming and dancing,
flowing and ebbing...
Racing skies chase fragmented
clouds.... streaking blue with white....
horizons... shifting and shimmering
in heat haze of violets and mauve
burnt sienna and ochre colour the
landscape...lifted by splashes of
bougainvillea's brilliance and
bird of Paradise...waving and bowing
proudly....whitewashed stucco highlights
cobbles and inclines...dotted midst
orange and lemon trees..... walnut
complexions and smiles add to the
ambiance....panniers balanced
loaded for the long climb back up
the mountain by the sure footed
beast...to the homes carved from the
rock...cool and inviting sangria..to
revive the weary...paella aroma
invades the senses...whilst intense
emotions rage with the flamenco
dancers swirling and stomping in
frantic tempo..proud in their
heritage.................

Many thanks for the kind words
