Dreamland

The thought of life supreme
in a land of my dreams
in a place where beauty dwells
among the flowing water streams
 
Switzerland would be that dream
among the mountains so majestic
there the Alps are the tops
this indeed is simply fantastic
 
Watching the cows ring their bells
walking in the green pastureland
where the air is so fresh so cool
feeling thinking this is grand
 
Walking in the snow during winter
skiing down many a whitened slope
with the sun baking on your back
this was what you used to hope
 
Life is made of visions and dreams
catching a glimpse of what could be
transporting oneself to another world
there wonders are all to see!

I have never been to Switzerland, but I can see it through your vivid descriptions... A lovely poem and a joy to read! Nicely done, Gordon!

thanks Kelly, glad you enjoyed it. We've been a few times in early 90s but not been for while as its very expensive to go and for a holiday but maybe some day!
