“Sweet puppy love he does impart-
that flows out from his giant heart!”
_by Poet
Our grandson has a very special pet
who's nine months old, and such a loving one!
If you could see him, surely you'd forget
he's still a puppy wanting to have fun!
He might outpace you on a morning run;
then on your lap, he spreads out long and wide.
One hundred pounds already, and not done;
sweet Bernese Mountain Dog stands tall with pride!
But, how big will he get? I ask myself, wide-eyed.

This special place of Wilderswil
a little village in vicinity of Interlaken
there in Switzerland's Bernese Oberland
one just needs to stop and simply stand
From my holidays there in the early 90s
this was just beautiful, a sheer Swiss delight
so much to enjoy here among its heights
especially when the sun was so bright
The grandeur of the mountains around
there Jungfraujoch and Schilthorn so stands
superlatives they are so very glorious
creatively made by no human hand
This little village sits between two lakes
lakes Thun and Brienz are ideal sailing trips
so to reach lovely hillside walks
where the scenery catches you in its grip
The railway is always so spot on
never late to wherever your destination
so Wilderswil, I just love you so
hope to see you again on another occasion

It is a scene never to be forgotten
up on the mountainous Switzerland
what a glorious sight to behold
in my memory it will always stand
There I was on mighty Jungfrau
it was during the month of July
this was highest peak I had been
never knew anything was so high
Surrounded all around I was
by beautiful pure white snow
up to it above my knees
many a snowball I did throw
Looking up to the blue sky
there it was such glorious sun
such warmth in midst of snow
amazing indeed this was fun
This was indeed so wonderful
the most beautiful thing I’ve seen
what a picture what a photograph
so thankful to God I had been
(In the early 90s was on holiday in Bernese Oberland in Switzerland and had opportunity to go up the Jungfrau by train, what a sight and what beauty!)
