Wonderous Europe.

Duomo di Milano, Milan, Italy The majestic Duomo to Milan, Like Notre-Dame to Paris, It is their pride, Oh! It’s gothic structure. The grand arches,  The magnificent roof, A forest of pinnacles and spires,  Lost in a world of splendor and glory.  Six centuries it took, The exalted figure, Golden Mary protects Milan, Oh! Her golden grace. Higher than everything else, Once a Bach entered Duomo, He fell in love with its harmony, Oh! His melodious symphonies.  Enriched patriarchs and martyrs, What they did not for Italy, Sculpted onto history,  In golden words and diamond shrines. But which mind was it that dreamt it into existence Surely it couldn't be human, could it? It must have been the eye of God that fashioned it Or perhaps it was a dream of the Holy Mother herself. -Devansh Dewra.

The Edinburgh Castle, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK The royal castle of Edinburgh, Its robust structure, A thousand years but not a damp, Oh! How perfect, How strong! Through the tunnels, A young piper walked, Ran away to endlessness, Oh! The Lone Piper lives! Dogs won them battles,  The furry soldiers fought with valor, Wrapped up in Scottish cloth, Oh! Their noble deaths! Rot the prisoners in the jail, Hanged the Pirates of Caribbean, Carved was the great flag of America, Oh! Imprisoned misery! The Great Old Chapel, Saint Margaret protects it, Her piety, her selflessness,  Oh! The godly figure! Whose was the majestic castle, The rulers of Europe, The Brits, The Scots, Or a gift to the world itself! -Devansh Dewra.
