For the intro and outro, remember to use the feminine form of the ordinal number, so it would be "Ενότητα δεύτερη", and "Τέλος δεύτερης ενότητας".
And just one pronunciation note:
0:57 λευκές λαμπάδες, it should be pronounced more like lefkes.

An enjoyable listening experience; I laid back, relaxed and listened to some Greek poetry :9:

My one comment is for the outro where you make use of the definite article, it would be "τελος της ενότητας τρίτης" instead of του :wink:

Your 1 minute and 66 seconds of listening pleasure is at hand. Or you can save it up and listen to several sections later.
Section 4 only has been uploaded.
Best,
Christine

I think I like this poem best so far!

Pronunciation comments; I think you used the δ sound instead of θ in θύρες at 0:29, and θωρώντας at 0:48, if you'd like to fix that, or maybe it's just the way you pronounce this letter, which is fine!

As a fun fact: in the word αγκάλες, the γκ combination is a two-letter consonant, and its sound turns to something like "ng". I found this wiki article that explains it some if you're interested: https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Greek_Language/Two-letter_Consonants

Excellent! I will work on these things! Learning with each poem. Thanks for being my mentor!
