I can still recall the look upon His face

Each thought still makes me go to that enchanting place

The vernal air was floral sweet and honey breezed

 We roamed along Venice's zigzagged lanes and cobbled streets

On our  secret rendezvous,We hugged affectionately under pastel gothic galleries

Greeted by the aromatic  smell of  freshly brewed roast coffee beans

Strolling along the pigeon-filled piazza San Marco

We wandered hand in hand,in the serenissima ancient floating land

Street musicians played their flutes.as We sat on a roof-top wooden terrace

We glanced at merchants sell hand-blown murano glass 

by the picturesque Doge's palace

We ate a snack , then walked away towards the old opera house

which now has risen from its ashes.

We sauntered forward through little alleys

from where He bought me ,a gold painted venetian mask

To my surprise ,He had another gift,a wrapped up scarlet sheer laced basque

I peered at him through my dark lashes,He raised his left brow and flashed a smile

Expressed his charm in playful ways,in a flirtatious endearing style.

Boarded at last on a black gondola,cruised the lagoon and the canals

A few light kisses,a few soft brushes,waiting the bell's toll whilst in his arms

There we lay in waiting beneath the bridge of sighs

We sealed our kiss and promised lips,to the harmonic sound of chimes

He leaned on me,I welcomed Him,our spirits been entwined

Above,the sky has changed its colour,I watched the sun set in his eyes

All I am,I gave to him,my enduring heart- His sacred shrine

All that He is He gave to me in once upon a time




Not for the contest,but thanks for the 'Lovemaking in an ancient place contest,inspiration'.


This post is inspired by Ancient Venice and the tale of 'The Bridge Of Sighs'
The tale goes-If you kiss your loved one with the bell's toll of St,Mark's Basilica,
at sunset,beneath the bridge of sighs,the couple seals their love forever.
There is another tale to it,a sad one,but preferred to share the happy one : )
