The Brilliant Hotel Golden
Eternal Rome, shimmering anew in her glorious heat
Brings us alive, despite dizzy heads and aching feet
While Mama delights us daily with her exquisite food
We then explore your history before another interlude
Of coffee, cakes quite gluten-free, with glitzy Roman ices
And later still, the pastas, pizzas and finest Italian spices
Laughing and jesting with boisterous Italian waiters
Then loving Roman history with her fallen gladiators
Limping home to Marco or Giuseppe or even dear Papa
Or Maria or Alina; our day at Villa D’Este so spectacular!
Our spotless rooms, so pleasing to four exhausted friends
Refresh us for new restaurants, our fashions setting trends
And then to sleep, to dream of further Roman explorations
Thrilled by this grand hotel, we’ll seek further reservations!
