Denmark
Denmark
What a sweet little country, it's national
anthem reflects his kindness when the German army
marched in 1940, there was no resistance
hence, not one life was lost
the old king continued to ride his horse in the park
Denmark was pressured into, joining NATO as Norway did 57 years ago, the Danes know which side a slice of the loaf has the butter,
while paying obedience
to the real power, America, they continued
to make Denmark a sweet country
Something unforeseen happened, the war in Ukraine
as NATO members they sent two planes there
only two as the budget would not allow for more
but their merchant fleet is vital in carrying the USA
products
apart from this, the Danes know it is a small
country, to maintain a high standard of living
they have aligned themselves to a greater power
But her charm was not lost
