European travel is cool for family, friends, and romantic partners - a vacation poem.

A soul of grace and beauty
Is now conveniently emanating -
Conceptually adorned
And admired by the seascape.
The undulating presence is proverbially
Peaking -
So enchanted in scope,
Uniformly desired,
As a covenant of clarity
In an omnipotent and courtly world…

The Mediterranean Sea sloppily
Munching in the distance -
The Southern point jutting outward.
A center of canals and artistry
Rising among the rosy shores
A-glimmer,
With wine and music tastefully
Pouring from the ornamental facades.
Churches and gardens hosting
Resplendent guests and honored voices
Of a historic and vocational peninsula.

Time and again, the ageless drummer
Rat-a-tats the devil’s anvil,
Clanging off the cymbals
And pressing the foot pedals -
And the timeless singer
Belts a melodious set of effortless chords.
Benefiting the young and old ears
Of a precipitous legion
Of happy adults and children,
And clapping and engaging cohorts
Of this wondrous escape!

Ecstasy from delight,
Days of wonder,
Angling down curvy, narrow boulevards,
In residential zones
Of primed and picture book elegance;
Public and private tours
Trumpeted by vintage cars and taxis.
A waterway in the distance,
Celebrated for its blue and white waves.
Sailboats and ships navigating
The buoyant, busy harbor,
With the endearing edge
Of the sea’s summery vantage point
Hoisting sails, anchors, and nets
In the ocean’s idyllic,
Boisterous environs…
