Alfred Berggren Poet Terzanelle

Fountain Roma

She was standing next to Fountain Roma
where the river-god Ganges sits displayed
To me she was Spanish word “ paloma”.

Now on god Ganges her camera played
and I saw her smile at fountain statue
where the river-god Ganges sits displayed.

Alone, she needed companion with her
to suggest camera’s right position.
For little dove this help I could confer.

All this of course with her kind permission.
Coming close by lady’s side I ventured
to suggest camera’s right position.

Pointing at her camera I gestured.
Confused, she gave my words a second thought
Coming close by lady’s side I ventured.

Seems camera had been recently bought,
She was standing next to Fountain Roma,
and welcomed the instruction I now taught
To me she was Spanish word “ paloma”.
