XLVII italian accents

It's hard to do Italian accents,
Without just sounding like a total jerk,
It's easy to start having accidents,
About pronunciations you have heard.
Oh, am I in the right when I attempt,
To put a syllable-ah on each line?
And my poor tongue fears it is in contempt,
When figuring if "th" or "t" is right.
My strategy to solve these obstacles,
Is to eat all the native food I can,
Like pasta and cannoli, wine and cheese,
In hopes my mouth will start to understand,
   Whether the answer comes to yes or no,
    I will be eating all the gelato.
