Pamela Allegretto Quotes

She Dreamed Of Venice. However, It Wasn't A City Alive With Stars Dripping Like Liquid Gold Into Canals, Or Bougainvillea Spilling From Flowerpots Like Overfilled Glasses Of Wine. In This Dream, Venice Was Without Color. Where Pastel Palazzi Once Lined Emerald Lagoons, Now, Gray, Shadowy Mounds Of Rubble Paralleled Murky Canals. Lovers Could No Longer Share A Kiss Under The Bridge Of Sighs; It Had Been The Target Of An Obsessive Allied Bomb In Search Of German Troops. The Only Sign Of Life Was In Piazza San Marco, Where The Infamous Pigeons Continued To Feed. However, These Pigeons Fed Not On Seeds Handed Out By Children, But On Corpses Rotting Under The Elongated Shadow Of The Campanile.
