Before the morning rush of tourists,
before the crowds,
the Florentines get the opportunity to
enjoy what is theirs
for a little while
without having to share.
I try to imagine what this piazza
was like in the time of the Medicis.
I hope they looked up in awe at what they had built.
I hope they still do.
It's so easy to forget how beautiful something is
when you see it every day.
And to me that's rather sad.
