I dreamt of Campania | Lee Lanzillotta
I dreamt once more
of hills
too green to really be
veiled in languid mist
rising from golden fields
so ancient
Vergil loved them, too
upon his death
to this place they carried him
finally buried him
among these hills so dear to me
Fecund Campania, how I miss you.
