Paris

My next stop was Paris
Paris
Place of romance and dreams
Majesty that gleams
Grandeur and art
You’ve won my heart
Place of elegant statues
Night life and grand views
High fashion and great food
Catwalks where bare breast and nipples extrude
Inspiration to Van Gogh
And many more besides you know
Even Australia’s Impressionists were here
Oh, to spend a year!
Painting everything in sight
Jean Baptiste Carpeaux’s ‘Le Dance’
My favourite sight
Captured by Rodin’s intimate embrace
Overcome by Monet, Cézanne and
Degas’ impressionists
Delight
Sacre Coeur
Sacred place of my heart
