A visiting friend brought me a little gift from this year’s Turin International Book Fair—a book autographed by my literary idol, Domenico Starnone!!

On the tail of May come
the dreamy wisterias,
gentle breeze, busy bees,
and a song of leaves of grass.

Summer Snowflake—What a oxymoronically beautiful name!

[Boston_Boffin @Boston_Boffin]

Spotted this after walking by many times.

and the swans.

The spring water is getting warmer—the ducks are first to know.

[Boston_Boffin @Boston_Boffin]

Get the color right for the season.

Passing by a park whose sign says “A Street Park”, I thought, how unoriginal! Whoever came up with the name must have just given up trying.
But then realized the park is literally on “A Street”. 😂

On the summer’s tail comes the grape-leaf anemone.
“Born of the wind”, their petals easily blown away by the breeze;
they are Venus’s tears for Adonis.

Rewatching…

RIP Julian Sands. This scene from A Room with a View, where Lucy found George in a hillside wheat & poppy field outside of Florence, will always be the most memorable one for me.

Folle amore! Folle ebbrezza! After "A room with a view", I hear this Puccini aria again in the #Sopranos!(S5E05)
