Contrasts of Light, Florence, Italy


An evening of storm
The thunder rolls away
Sun breaking through clouds
Spreading light over the Arno.
Next morning is calm and clear
Morning sunlight pours over
Golden tinted buildings.

Florence Diaries 4


A beautiful spring morning
Marble statues on the terrace
Of the Bardini Gardens
Frame the Church of Santa Croce
Seen across the Arno

At sunset the Arno becomes a river of molten gold
Reflections of ancient buildings 
have rippled in this water for centuries.
