to run the cobblestones in marathon 2008
an estimated 50,000 will be in a 4k fun run
the weather is close to perfect
the runners say it’s a great way to see the city
non-stop tv coverage for the three hour event
features spectacular helicopter views
we go out to yell encouragement to the runners
then watch the rest on tv
the day before we saw roma our favorite way
on a bus ride, and while passing piazza del popolo
crowds of kilted scotch fans were walking along
drinking beer in preparation for a big rugby match
as we crossed a bridge over the tevere i mentioned,
"I've been here on my motorino."
there was a pause
my dear one was surprised and perplexed
"What? You've been hearing your motorino?
In your sleep, or can you hear it now?
Like a ringing in your ears?”
that was a frightening thought
since i had gotten rid of my motorino a few years ago
"No, I said, I've been here, on my motorino."

So it's a dream...verry goog to old live, to restore the lost music!
Lovely stuff, Jack. I just had a nice, long read. Keep it up; "warms the cockles of me 'eart!"
