Nonna's House
My Nonna is cooking at the stove and it smells like heaven.
My cousins are fighting and it sounds like animals bickering.
The french fries sizzle on the stove like a slithering snake.
The Italian soccer game is playing and I can hear the ball flying in the air. I can hear the big woosh of the ball.
There is delicious food around me and it is like a dream.
I can spend days in my Nonna’s garden with my family at my side.
I taste tomato sauce from my Nonna’s home made lasagna.
I’m delighted here.
Loved and overjoyed.
And last of all, blessed.
