Swiss Born Monk
It would have been my wish
to have been born a Swiss
to experience such a cool climate
not to be so is a real miss
To walk on these lovely peaks
even in winter amongst the snow
hear the cows ring their bells
this would be a highlight not a low
But also to be a Swiss monk
having solitude and peace within
away from the world's chaos
in God's presence to deal with sin
This would give time to truly pray
spend with God real quality time
no distractions of other things
making life a real true rhyme
It would allow me to speak
with God no stammer to fight
every word come fluently out
knowing acceptance day and night
(my dream of living in my fav country and having total solitude too)
