A Poem I Left In Austria

I wrote a poem years ago.
The content alludes me and its theme.

I recall It was written in Innsbruck Austria.
I was writing it while I ordered a dry martini;
they brought me the whole damn bottle
together with a huge bill!

I was young and trying hard to be sophisticated,
my German may have confused the wait-staff.
I paid up
then took

Afghanistan, Austria, Argentina

LORD, this morning, thank you. This SONnet will please, tease, release:
I greet thee, having access to Your throne by Jesus
And His sacrifice on Calvary: We pray against the Virus
With a sunshiny name, an aura of a name, garland ...

Visit To Austria

The flight to Austria with the teachers,
We shared accomodation when we landed.

I signed up for ski lessons instead taking a tour of Salzburg.
Two weeks of lessons and we were destined to ski the highest mountain in Austria.

The Patscherkoepfle  was  the tallest mountain in Austria,
 I said I am only skiing halfway,

We went to

Brexit Sonnet 41 - Austria, Not Australia

Brexit Sonnet No. 41
‘Austria, not Australia!’
 

I’m Mad to the Max, brimmed full with deep disgust. 
So who’s on the bike and who’s in the car with the grunt?
Who’s the guy that is good, is it he that is heavily trussed,
Or shot in the leg, or dragged down the road for a stunt?
This violent dystopian

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

A Serenade To Austria

The singer sings a serenade to Austria,
You sit mesmerized at his handsome appearance,
His kind ways enrapture you,
He carries a love for humanity with him,
The mountains in the background strong and bold,
To climb them, you caress every moment,
The fields of wild flowers, a walk through paradise.
God's blessings on a beautiful day,
The wisdom of a poet, strong

Premium MemberFleeing Austria

My wife and I return from our honeymoon, and what do we see?
There is a new regime that is overrunning my country.
I have the terrible feeling another war will begin.
It will be started by those goose stepping morons from Berlin.
I have been given orders to report to Bremerhaven.
A commission in the Third Reich’s navy I

Austria

A lightning collision
The train wreck born of mountain side
A thick black Eden held as a chalice in the far 
Reservoirs of each moon high star-flung eye
Braught to the corners as an incident
Of which to rubberneck could capture a soul or 
More to the point an unopened envelope
Spilling out as vivisected loveloss
To drop a cold shoulder

The Beauty of Austria Shattered

I remember the dream of Austria
As the war for me was finally closing 
High in my turret upon the Sherman
I entered this mountain paradise at last
Until I reached the earthly gates of hell

Within those eyes I found despair
That spark of life long dead
Their hearts filled of solitudes poison
Muted voices no longer calling out
Thousands of souls
