Here, in Rome, all the ends are lost,--. all the roads here crisscross and merge. Every thought ends up on a cross,-- on each corner, there stands a church. Here, in Rome, every rock is sacred,-- every street, every acre and block. In every sculpture, a God stands naked. Heartbeat blends with the beat of the clock. The shadows are cast on a side, awry. Every shade appears light and vast. The years disappear in a blink of an eye. The remains, though, deny the past. Check out my poetry here: http://www.unknownpoets.com/db/authors/master |

Nicely done here, but I think that something was missing in this poem. It didn't have the magic like you do in the others. Anyway, it's still better than what I could ever come up with! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |
