Don't wake Rosalia

Post by Wayne R Baker » April 21st, 2015, 5:12 am

Hush don't wake Rosalia
Some say she only sleeps
From beneath her glass topped cradle
Her eyes they sometimes peek

Hush don't wake Rosalia
Just let the child rest
And ponder on her smile
Please let her soul be blessed

Hush don't wake Rosalia
Tip toe around her tomb
She's the most macabre exhibit
Of these white walled catacombs

Just for the record Rosalia Lombardo was the last person to be interned at the Capuchin monastery catacombs in 1920. She remains perfectly preserved.

If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
