Strolling In Rome

The monuments are stately; The churches are impressive. The frescoes and the statues Are amazing and expressive. The ruins do proliferate, Their grandeur still inspiring, While trattorias beckon If your energy's expiring. Yet best of all the offerings That render Rome exquisite Are the streets set up for strolling If you have the chance to visit. The cobblestones and alleyways Meander and invite you To step inside the many shops Intended to delight you. Then suddenly, around a bend, A fountain looms, enticing, Surrounded by gelato stands, For pick-me-ups sufficing. To people-watch or meet head-on Historical remains, Just roam the streets and you will feel Italian in your veins.
