From here I wish a quick departure
to visit a people alive with culture
I want to venture to a foreign land
be free to escape the daily demand
A bucket list item for many a year
want to scratch an itch so severe
Blue skies and white beaches beckon me
where lovers and bronze bodies are free
A history rich with art, poetry, and technology
where sophistication spawned prodigy
A magical destination calls my name
oh, Greece, you’re my aim
