Au revoir les choses Lyonnaises

Good-bye bicycle rentals and murals on walls

Good-bye to the turtles...

.....to one and to all

good-bye to our first door, and on down the hall

good-bye to our last door, not really that small

good-bye basillica so graceful and high
good-bye giant blooms, seen as we sailed by

good-bye shades of pink, saffron and rust

good-bye red praline pastries I ate 'til I bust

but we say a fond au revoir and not good-bye
to our cousin and comrade, Hillsborough-pie
