La Serenissima


a poem by Jodie Hedrick...

I love Venice…I love the way the dappled sunlight shines through its elegant, crumbling walls and falls upon its graceful waters like bright, flowing ribbons.
I love its quiet, narrow alleys that always seem to whisper the stories of thousands of years of lovers and dreamers.
 I love its many moods…the way the light always changes revealing something beautiful.
I love the way my footsteps quietly echo through the darkness. 
I love the way it fills me up and restores my soul.
I love this exquisite jewel that is like no other.

Venice…you have cast your spell on me.
