The Limoncello of Life- a taste like no other

its over

I said goodbye to Sicily 
Flew across the water
Hello Rome 
I’ll say farewell tomorrow 
No more limoncellos as I watch the sun go down 
No more saltiness on my lips
Floating mindlessly in the sea
No more bare arms 
No bare legs
Except in the privacy of the apartment life


The dualism of the human existence 
How would I know otherwise?

I’m lost for words
Just know that this time has been like no other

As with any ending
Be it adventure 
Be it a challenge 
Be it love
There is an end

Emotions 
What do I do now?
How do I find that feeling again?
If I search in all spaces 
Will it come to me?
Is it like an addiction 
Where more and more will be demanded?
Can I return to the stage of rest and contentment?
The path must be walked
With open eyes 
And an open heart
An open mind

I will see and know when the path delivers
The rough parts
The dreamy spaces
The hill
The limoncello of life!

The Tiny World of Florence....

 Absence from the ones we love from those who are closest an emptiness Thank you COVID you brought to our minds the things we hold most dear...
