Nette, I am overstimulated as I read about this Paris night with all its energy and at the same time, soaking up the beauty of the great artists of all time. I feel caught up in this moment....completely. Much enjoyed our lil glass of champagne. GWendolen

Could be madness anywhere. MY favorite verse is the second with all the fantastic imaging you exude but the whole poem is vivid and profound!

Absolutely lovely. Fills one with a longing to be there. Love the way you compare the sights to great paintings by wonderful artists. Supercalifragilistic! God Bless, JB
