Austria

Austria, you refresh my spirit like dew refreshes the earth The flowers of the field are glorified in your country. Your snow falls so silently as God imparts, Yet it is only music to my heart. Give my mind a grandeur, for you are nature’s fine art Austria, you are the steady beat of a living drum- I am spent and free. The joy you give makes me higher than any star, more magnificent than any sea. I await your dawn, but my thoughts linger me awake. My patience fails me for the desire to inhale your rich wind as it traverses through my entire being, Illuminating every stitch of my spirit into a beautiful revealing. Austria, my Austria, your rolling river takes a breath, You make my eyes pure, and I feel blessed. Austria, my Austria, your sky boasts its beauty, inspired by Heaven. Vigor of my youth new, Your sky colored with thousand shades of blue. Purple hilltops covering the sky, Nature’s gifts you cannot buy. Nature’s crown, much have you created, much designed, Thoughts never imagined, my Soul is completely purified. You bestow a wondrous magic toward all humankind. God, bring me back to her organic aid. Back under her fur tree where I sang and prayed. To relive my memories of Austria’s green shade.
