Distant Memory Poems - Poems about Distant Memory

Glistening sun and cobblestone streets Towering cathedrals and blistering feet Walking past shops gelato in hand Mom steps into a church as usual, unplanned Altars rise a bove us, stained glass in every window Candles and holy water with a crypt just below Back into town with such bustling people I turn around and say goodbye to the steeple Even from here, I...
