Tiff

You visit a city And find a surprise, A not-quite-expected Delight for your eyes. First time in Toronto, The streets all a'buzz With the TIFF* - you, like us, May not know what it was. A film festival, both World-class and renowned. Of course, paparazzi Are hanging around. We purchased some tickets And now we're in line And whether the movie Is blah or divine... It's lovely to do What we couldn't at home, Which is follow that adage, You know - "When in Rome..." *Toronto International Film Festival
