Persephone Returns | Greek Mythology Poems
Selections
A selection of favourite poems penned by the poet, reflecting the rich and emotional terrain of life. Many of these poems draw inspiration from the poet's early years in Cyprus, affectionately called 'Cyprus Poems,' which echo the spirit and landscape of Cyprus poetry. The verses explore love’s delicate bloom and the inevitable shadows of death and grief. Each poem reveals loss in its many forms, balancing despair with the bittersweet beauty of memory. Love poems speak to both heart and soul, while death poems consider what lies beyond. Religious imagery threads through these reflections, exploring faith, doubt, and the sacred moments of life. Themes of growing up intertwine with thoughts on identity and transformation. In this selection, poetry serves as both mirror and map, charting the emotional landscapes of existence, from fleeting joys to the profound echoes of loss.
