The taste of morning cappuccino,
The little bridge to cul-de-sac,
The drying linen over water,
The darkness of the lost canals,
San-Marco, liable to floods,
Graffiti on the ancient buildings,
The crowds of tourists everywhere -
Even the Lion would be scar'd
The palace facade at Canal,
And gondolas at marble stairs,
The masks on sale for everyone,
The shadows of medieval faces.
The place I spent the Venice night:
Santa Maria del Salute;
Gratification and delight:
The night had passed as one minute.
Those who are rich - they booked hotels,
And had their comfortable rest.
I'm just a poor exalted poet;
I saw the sunrise - what's the best?
Venice
