That song reminds me of her
Gin tonic and pipe smoke reminds me of them
Sushi reminds me of her
Spin the bottle reminds me of them
Looking up at the night sky reminds me of her
Drunken walks home remind me of them
Old bicycles remind me of her
The fountain in the piazza reminds me of them
Japanese drums remind me of her
Late night sandwiches remind me of them
Crazy hats remind me of her
Afternoon wine reminds me of them
Rainy nights remind me of her
Dancing till 3am reminds me of them
The pictures on my camera remind me of her
That one last hug that should have been a kiss….
Cheese and pancetta, tomatoes and rucola,
Philadelphia and bread, Malibu and pineapple
Rivers of beer and wine, gelato in the summers,
Every moment here I am reminded of her, them, then and
there.
Italia! The place, the people, the time,
You seem now like the one that got away….
