On the Museum Steps

Rest here with me.
Sit down on the marble steps, tell me what you’re thinking.
After we sketch the sculptures, after we write poetry
in notebooks, right before we leave for dinner–
Rest here with me.
Sit down on the marble steps, tell me one more time,
what you’re thinking.

    1. It is romantic. I love visiting the museum with my husband where we sketch and write separately and then come together to share. I sat on these steps with friends from art school MANY years ago as well, sketching and talking and drinking strong coffees. Love those steps.

    1. I love marble steps. And who can resist a railing like this? Maybe next time you can share a warm coffee on the steps. It makes you feel like a kid again. Adults don’t usually do this, oh but it feels good.
