20 miles of smooth road
Garnished with short stone hedge walls
And gardens of olive trees
And the breeze of Adriatic.
That was the introduction to our evening excursion to Rovinj.
Glistening sea
Foretelling of a firey sunset
We roamed through the old city on the sea
Surrounded by
Multitudes of islands
Like pearls adorned with trees
And little red rooftops peaking through
Imagining how would living life here would be.
Wholehearted laughter with lifetime friends
From a faraway land
A place where life always find a way
To stand still
A unique flavor of PBCC
All the way in Croatia.
We find a place near the water
On the rocks
Flat beds of stone
supporting romantic tables
Near the ebbs and flows
The large fish,
And warm blue water.
This is how heaven must be.
I feel heavy and light all the once
Emotional because of so much beauty.
The greatest mundane conversation
Joy shared with Jenny and Brian
Sarcasm and inside jokes
That we didn’t even know we shared.
Simple and yet exquisite
The best dinner we have ever shared!
Together and with friends.
Then the sun starting to set
Red above and below.
How much beauty can we take in
I feel like crying of joy.
After reaching the top of the hill
Entering in the church
For a split moment
Smelling the incense and the candles.
This is how heaven must smell
Outside small droplets of rain
And gushes of freshness and wind.
This is too much!
Oh, the lord is blessing us tenfold
With friendship and home
In a foreign land.
