Sunday Muse # 209

 

Doisneau

 


i remember the ghost train

the skeleton jumps out

 at the end of the ride

screams  laughter and delight

especially with a french one

there's something about gallic screeches



tsk

i'm not completely stupid

that is definitely not

an ostrich egg in that nest

well maybe

 if it is in a bat cave

 in wuhan




having a la dolce vita moment today

peering through my windswept tresses

where is marcello mastroanni

oh there he is

beckoning me to join him

for a splash in the trevi fountain

  1. That may not be an ostrich but you are definitely a hoot Rall. You always make my day with laughter. Happy Mother's Day!

  2. I was thinking of a Disneyland ride, just before the exit. Did you ever splash in a fountain? Not too very memorable for me. I'm sure there were others there but I couldn't recall who.

  5. Dear Rall,
    Each of these speaks to the image ... can hear the French accent, want to escape boredom and head to Italy, NO covid please.
