English has many words which rhyme and
So they're were easy to remember
For example, months September
November and last December
Maria's name rhymes with Rosa
They've more rhymes than us here
They went to the trattoria
For their carriera, career
They both saw a handsome waiter
But he was a double dater
With one either side on the tavolo
But could he pay for the trio?
Mario had no denario
Held in his small duo mano
So he could get no credito
To pay for the big bigletto
How do I recall that room is stanza
Poem parts, ottava rima
Think of them hearing Mario Lanza
Add pictures, that's a bonanza.
Mario played the piano
Maria played the piano
And Rosa played the piano
The trio put on a good show
Let's reverse it, stanaza's a room
A tiny womb, or a huge tomb
An Italian meeting room
An online room with faces on Zoom
Mario was a dilletante
But the favourite of his zio
Maria's Did owned the ristorante
And paid for them all, the hero
Let's end on a happy nota
They sang a joyful sonata
The segretaria wrote a lettera
All said let's do this ancora.
