Italian Countryside

Explore the beautiful world.

Roaming along the countryside

Gazing at the vineyards and hills

In front of the setting sun

It colored the sky a deep shade of orange and pink

Grass blades moved in symphony from the soft breeze

Leaves rustled from the olive trees

A man in the distance carried a basket of fresh Parmesan cheese and red wine

Flowers embroidered the hills

Looking like bright rubies on a green canvas

We passed a man serenading his girl

From the bottom of a hill

The language sounds like romance to my ears

The warm, soft breeze cuddled me like a blanket

Loose stones shuffled under my feet as I walked

Along the cobblestone road

Taking in the beauty of the countryside

A droplet of water fell on my cheeks

I looked up at the sky

It started to rain

Warm water drops showered the countryside

I smiled

My dog ran around in circles in pure joy of the rain

Italy looks more beautiful in the rain

The fragrance of the rain along with fresh olives and wild flowers

Smells indulging

Cypress trees lined the hills

The setting sun is visible above the horizon

The rain eased

Dusk fell

And stars sprinkled across the night canvas

Italy is even more breathtaking at night

Candles appeared on the terrace and inside homes

Looking like gold in the darkness

Smiling

I walked back to my villa with my dog trudging alongside me

In the countryside of Tuscany.
