Far From Home
I drool over
to come and see,
those lovely places around
truly, a sight to behold.
Artifacts from Spanish times
magnificent churches,
buildings and a tad of ruins
have significance to perceive.
Clematis dripping from walls
cascades of flowers
green trees elsewhere
give delight to everyone.
A triumph of hope
awaits the locals
as a hybrid nation
a birthplace of faith.
One day it happens
doused by rains
swathed in fog
yet it holds a promise of joy.
A trek through the mountain
lo and behold!
Zipaquirá, its name
what an amazing place!
Good recounts with examples
in a language so rich
made as the ancients said
Truth and beauty go together.
The experience and interest
speak volumes about history,
pride and dignity,
amongst the people of Colombia.
