Romance To Palermo

To go to Palermo,
I should take the train,
It seems to me, Miss
It won’t take as long with you.

With you miss
It would be shorter,
I would see the beautiful Sicily,
See it, under the flowers of your smiles.

To go to Palermo,
We must not have worries,
That’s why, Miss,
That I will surely kiss you 
Like a gentle olive.






Pour aller à Palerme,
Il me faut prendre le train,
Il me semble mademoiselle
Qu'avec vous, ce sera moins long.

Avec vous mademoiselle
Ce serait moins long,
Je verrais la belle Sicile
Sous les fleurs de vos sourires.

Pour aller à Palerme,
Il ne faut pas avoir de soucis,
C'est pour ça mademoiselle
Que je vous embrasserai
Comme une gentille olive.

Such an endearing poem Yann. Love the title and the journey you took the reader on. I love the line, ‘ See it, under the flowers of your smiles’. So sweet. So enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing. Smiles to you:):)

Wonderful poem Yann. Thanks for taking us on your ride to Palermo with you. Fun, sun, and someone to help pass the time with. Then to gently steal a kiss. What an adventure.

A sweet kiss for a miss that will throw caution to the wind and head to Palermo with you. A fun read, Yann ... in both languages. :-)

yann, thanks so much for the original in French; this kiss rolls off the lips sweetly. I got to Palermo by bus from Catania; then to Genoa by boat.

Seeing places, in the company of someone we love or admire is always a pleasure. To exchange a kiss is even more pleasurable.
