Today
I see Paris thru other’s eyes
I sit opposite Notre Dame
The Sun Gods are on my back
I am content with my day
Tourists stop in awe
At the great Cathedral before them
It is my favourite place to be
Watching the Gargoyles
Guarding their shrine
The tourists come and go
And I too must leave this city I adore
But the Gargoyles will remain
Constant and with love
Au Revoir for now my friends
I will return again
To the city who holds my heart...

Bisous de Paris

Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight.........

Those gargoyles will stay with you. *S* I haven't seen them in many years... but see them clearly in my mind. *S*

Love this! *S*

Paris will miss you too, dear Roniece.

This has just the right touch of melancholy.

Love,

Dear Roniece, I have enjoyed your posts
about the joys of Paris. And I sense a note

of nostalgia in your poem dear friend. But life does move on and it's up to each and

every one of us to make the most of it while we can. Love.
