In Venice

Narrow streets that block the light Bridges spanning everywhere Gondoliers in black and white Pigeons in Saint Marco Square Churches and Venetian glass Synagogues from ghettoed Jews Tourists you can barely pass Everywhere - amazing views Carts with vendors' souvenirs Cool cafes to have a snack When gelato time appears, There will never be a lack. Deep red berry on my cone Next to hazelnut did mix. Back at home I'll fret and moan 'Cause I'll miss my daily fix. Travel opens up our eyes To places different and unique And every trip grants some surprise Like my Italian ice cream streak.
