Traveling the World

I found a place of
divine intervention
The Land of Italy
The Towers of
Sorrento and Capri
So it is, 
I fell in love
with this place
a country so full of grace
Italy with history of war,
volcanoes, earth and sea
People friendly, loving, caring...
Sorrento luring me into 
it's piano bars and night life
fragrances of food
touching my hunger
Onto Assisi, historical buildings 
and Churches meet
A quaint town lines 
cobble stoned streets
Capri almost a country on it's own
an Island in the sea
A rock with a hole 
the "Blue Grotto" it is called
at top a surface quite flat 
they offer coconut drinks
and a cable car spat.

Another week has come and gone and I haven't been able to read as much this week as I had wanted. I am glad I was able to read your poetry today Glen. Keep your pen scrolling don't let the ink dry up. I hope you have a wonderful weekend of sunshine and joy and find lots of inspiration along the way. Love, Carol
