LADY OF PARIS
The world was shocked by the news yesterdayย
watching Notre Dame Cathedral turned into shades of gray
an iconic monument dedicated to the almighty Godย
enshrouded in religion, politics, where great poets have trod.
Hundreds of years spent building this Spireย
but it takes less an hour to consume by fireย
a monstrous flare danced on furrowed spaceย
brave firefighters extinguished the blaze.
The church bows its head; ceiling in defeatย
It's flaring up, meets numerous repeatsย
of echoes of wars, revolution,ย and turmoil
Lady of Paris is saved from pain of toil.
Everyone wishes rebuild this epochal placeย
applaud! a millionaire dude shares his abundant graceย
hundred million euros apparently is set asideย
even the President vows help with greatest pride.ย
Lady of Paris,ย Lady of Paris , Spring has just begun
come meet me at the Seineย
leave shattered ashes behind
I'll find you through the fog that makes me color blind.

Indeed a great loss. So well written. I visited twice, many years ago.
rebuilding can start new memories leave new souls in awe, but still so much lost.
you honored the Lady of Paris well
