Trebisacce
by the Sea
by Bonnie Willson Camo September 9, 2001
I grew up living life through books
Till Goddess blessed me with his looks.
Tall dark straniere swept me away
Shared my life up to this day
Forty two years of woes and joys
(lots of both from raising boys)
My horoscope said I’d live abroad,
(But astrology is rather odd)
Trebisacce by the sea
Now I hear you calling me
Pole beans on bamboo teepees
at Bon-Sante B&B
Brick oven baking tasty loaves
To dip in oil from our olive groves
Solar panels on the roof
Pecorino on the hoof
Blessed be! A man who cooks!
Never even needs cook books
Even sails and catches fish
Serves it up - a tasty dish
With roasted vegetables to savor
Home-grown herbs enhance the flavor.
Trebisacce by the sea
Now I hear you calling me
Ginestre – yellow winter bloom
Takes away all cold and gloom
