I often dreamed about Pisa when I was a boy. I read about the famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa. But when I read the word Pisa. I was thinking of pizza. I thought this tower was a place to buy pizza. It must be the best place to buy pizza in the world, I thought.
Many years later finally saw the Leaning Tower. I knew then that it was Pisa, not pizza. But there was still something special about it for me. The tower got its name because it really leans to one side. Some people want to try to fix it. They are afraid it may fall over and they don’t like it leans over the city.
I don’t think it’s a good idea to try to fix it. The tower probably will not fall down. It is 600 years old. Why should anything happen to it now? And, if you ask me, I like what it looks like. To me it is a very human kind of learning. Nothing is perfect, it seems to say.
