blooms loom
after rilette on baguette crust
to avoid stomach bust
move the butt we must
seine gems to sift from rust
new terriors to visit
new friends to meet
keep walking to stay fit
from jardin des plantes towards austerlitz
our feet fleet
for a la biche au bois lunch feat
next day, appetite for more gems to tame
off to l’ile de la Cité in the seine
marché aux fleurs us to greet
upon climbing out to cité street
also stumbled upon oldest hospital in town
fancy villa feel, check out the mairie in whimsical musical gown
