Where else, but on the trail to La Toscana?
Who is it mounts a mens that's not more sana,
devouring a voluptuous Verdi tune?
Which month might one elect, whic...

It Fills Up My Soul

Born in New York of Italian descent-
from childhood on- lasting still all these years,
Deep in my soul live the sounds of lament-

Hasty Shallows Are Leaving the Sky of Baiano

...The end of Autumn is still mild
and the majestic Mounts of Partenio
have no trace of snow; lovely Baiano
at its foot is tamed, not wild.

One can spot, looking up with delight,
different colors...

Floating in on your dreamy dusky wings.
You're the monarch of your glen.
Or a fancy pants , west coast lady .

Gossamer winged paintings.
Beauty on an angels wings .
