I Yearn For Rome

"Take Me There Contest,  Judged 01/21/2023/ NA"

I yearn to visit the eternal city of Rome,
St. Peter's Basilica with its tall dome;
        oh, love the beautiful gilt and art,
            the holiness touches my heart.
                The Sistine Chapel,
                    breathtaking,
                the ceiling dappled.
            I want to walk cobbled streets,
        and pause for some Italian eats.
To see the Vatican garden and catacomb,
to wander outdoor markets and just roam.
