A's haikus — week 7
Here you go...
Day 43 • 17 Oct • Naples to Rome
Half an hour in Rome
Before Ben's pocket is picked.
Our day’s in ruins.
Day 44 • 18 Oct • Rome
The Colosseum,
Stone arches decayed by time,
Is gargantuan.
Day 45 • 19 Oct • Rome
“Pizza by the cut”—
That's how the Romans do it.
We like the idea!
Day 46 • 20 Oct • Rome
Lego shop brings joy;
Rubber duck store even more.
We browse but don't buy.
Day 47 • 21 Oct • Rome to Florence
Fort Prenestino:
Tunnels, art and anarchy!
We wander. It's cool.
Day 48 • 22 Oct • Florence
No castorino,
But by the river we find
Adventure instead.
Day 49 • 23 Oct • Florence
Stibbert Museum.
Wealth buys armour, weapons, art.
The craftsmanship awes.
