Newport

Opulent mansions filled with splendor

Butlers standing tall and slender

Floor to ceiling gilded in gold

The tour today...electronically told
Tapestries hanging over winding staircases

Silver and china and Peony vases

Lion's paws for all the chairs feet

A French decorator...simply sweet

Well manicured grounds

Shrub-shaped trees abound

The breakers, the ocean satisfied my yearn

Yes, dear Newport, I will return
