Tripping around Paris
My little Paris
My own little fix
When I crave
To be a City Gurl
Taking photos
Giggling at silly tourists
And helping the lost ones
The smell of the Metro
The heat of the Metro
Tripping from one museum to the next
A conversation with a girlfriend in a Parisian café
Sitting on a bench under a tree
In the nearest Jardin
Eating fresh chocolate
Walking past a fountain
Going to a Bikram yoga class
And at the end of the day,
When I've finished playing
The City Gurl role
Racing through the countryside
In the TGV
I return to my little city
By the sea
And I appreciate once again
The little Disney-like Metro
The smell of the sea salt in the air
The seagull's cry
The sea wind
The silence
Interrupted only by the
Occasional passing car
My favorite café: La Part des Anges
Eating fresh chocolate
Sitting under a tree
In the nearest Jardin...
And so, I've had my little Paris fix
Until the return of the city itch....
