Beautiful Thinking

Standing by my window this afternoon I raise my glass to Venice in parting Three days at the Venetian Lagoon Down Rialto Bridge on a taxi we're riding. "Buona giornata, Mademoiselle" greets The room boy smiling, " Fiori per te" I put the fresh bouquet on crumpled sheets "It's masquerade ball tonight, my Lady." "I will meet you at eight", was the letter In awe of da Vinci's Mona Lisa Mio Dio, I can't take my eyes off her "We'll take our next flight to Casablanca." He whispered with masked eyes staring at me Tongue tied with every word my love goes on An impression of love deep as the bluest sea To you, my beautiful thinking, Godspeed anon.
