April Gough 🦄, the poem carries a clear sense of wonder as the Eiffel Tower moves from iron structure to living memory. The images of lace forged from iron, the Seine like a ribbon of gold, and the tower erupting in diamonds of light give the piece its visual lift. I especially appreciate the way the ascent changes the speaker’s sense of scale, making Paris feel both grand and intimate from above. Thank you for sharing a reflection filled with awe, travel memory, and affection for a city that continues to gleam long after the visit ends.

Paris is by far one of my favorite cities I’ve ever visited. I could swear I’ve lived there in a past life. I just love it so much!
