The Sweet Land

Sweat free

But clad in sweater

Alps eyes,tearing water

An air conditioned soil like a freezer

Sweet, the land of chocolate, Switzer!

Artist Jaques-Louis David
into politics he once slid
He loved the 'Roman nose'
with Napoleon in a dramatic pose*

Alps

A billowing cloud descends effortlessly from great heights
Languishing momentarily near ominous
Peaks, quietly resting,
Surrounding tree-lined unspoiled vistas, while exploiting yon  zenith



A poem written in the duel styles of ABC and Acrostics

I Envy You Not

Tell me nothing of "treasures" 
the passing year will teach you wisdom. 

build your walls with marbles, 
and your place with diamonds, 

This gold is mere dust,
cause this life is borrowed breath.

live atop the alps, 

away from the rest of us,

i envy you not.

All In a Days Win

Drifting as the snow topped alps
Town to Town
State to state
Nothing of warmth in sight
Becoming presents itself
In the mist of the cry
Acting as if is
Not enough
Becoming a part 
Assures survival
A thing can not be against it self
It can only turn 
Making relief

Alps

Abode of the avatars and the demigods,
I am ageless, calm and deep rooted
Indulged in the timeless meditations, I find vigor in serenity
Covered in the blanket of loam, rocks and snow
countess trees of life are sheltered on my back
The sun, the stars, the wind and the skies are all my allies
O mortal, I am just not conquerable

Mountain With a Non Starry Sky and Its Cold

many a dark non starry night i have been in blight, almost toxic hues of a stone so white and so small, has taken me back to a town in the mountains, it has brought me so much joy being here in this small alps like mountain village, it is very cold here now, i shall sleep and awake with a headache and chills due to the cold of course!

Summer Hell In a Day

like the feel of wood swooning to seas touch
the scrape of knife on plate
slow mo clouds on breeze unsure
hushing trees
gargled chuckles of seagull pass
acetically addictive
glass alps projectile vomit
from misunderstood sand
sea murmurs of deeps untook
plastic bag schooners
seaweed popping pimples
and tears
i remember the tears

Bavarian Alps

my eyes gazed 

over the doting sun 

while i focused on 

the tall pines that 

lined the darkened forest 

i'd remember laughter 

a quiet timing of tranquil 

thoughts nestled so 

beneath me i suppose 

the snow capped mountains 

craves my warmth as i 

craved the divine beacon razs 

gently time calmly left me behind

Mountain

MOUNTAIN                  

        Most strong built stands lone hard cool calm
        On Earth it rests rigid firm
        Up high to reach the top
        Noble grave, stable rock prop
        Touch its hard limb
        Alps to climb
        Ice coat
        Note.

Mont Tremblant

Listen to poem:
Under the starry night
it’s with breathtaking awe
we suddenly arrive
to the jawdropping site
of Mont Tremblant

What a panoramic view
up the mountainside
it’s all lit up
a winter wonderland

For a surreal moment
if only in our minds
we’re transported
across the ocean
to the foot of the
European Alps

Edelweiss

Exquisite, Alpine daisy-like flowers
Desired for my concrete, city garden.
Emblem of pure love and deep devotion 
Labeled as "noble white" by old Germans.
When my star-shaped petals began to droop,
Environmental pollution at fault;
I was told they are hardy, however
Success would be greater if I moved to
Switzerland - and a garden in the Alps.

Winter Blues

White snow progressively tinting blue
Ice resembling Bricks to built an Igloo
Nippy and harsh and yet a holding glue
Tinting and chilling to its distinct hue
Eternal chill forming deep packed Ice
Resembling the Blue Tinted Alps

Blinding with ceaseless fervor
Leaving the excursionist in a quake
Unclenching its Adamant Terror
Eagle with its forceful glare
Stiff,snowy stubborn meringue

Hiding Inside Myself

How do you do?
I missed you.
Day and night
In every twilight
Never wane about you.
Gliding in the snow,
  like you always do

In the middle of the Alps
Not between gaps
Sceneries of you 
  are my portrait.
In every eclipse
Dashing to the strait
Everglades wrap up my glimpse

Mementos of nexus
Yonder of hiatus.
Shimmer of yoke
Exalting joke.
Leverage of time
Fantasy of mime

A Winter's Day in Williamstown

A cold wind has the breath
of Antarctica coming up
from the south. Snow is falling
in the Alps. Small boats 
huddle in the sheltered corners
of the Bay as I make my way
towards the foreshore
and the spray swept pier.
In the far distance, gulls wheel
inside a shaft of sunlight
gathering gold on joyous wings. 
Suddenly, something leaps up
from out of its wintry solitude
to join them.

Elixir Vitae

cow bells ring 
through verdant hills 
rolling up to cuddle  
towering gray cliffs
spraying white foam 
intoxicating Alps
where Frankenstein
concocted Elixir Vitae
and birthed a monster
rich red wine 
and a pot of fondue
on a cafe terrace 
jagged tip 
of the top of Europe peeking 
through the fluff hugging
its head and shoulders
stunning monster
the Alps
Elixer Vitae for an
old soul

Natural Wonders

Natural wonders,
tremendous natural
structures. 

The white
cliffs of Dover to the
Grand Canyon in
Arizona. 

From the
slopes of the Alps to
the Himalayas peaks.
What magnificent feats.

We marvel over these
landscapes, astonishing
creations. 

Will wonders
never cease, we have
yet to look beneath
the seas.

Take in the truly
amazing feat, the
exquisite abundance of
the Great Barrier Reef.

Envy of the Bermise Alps

Stalwart Alps beauty sees
Wild crocus blooms at your feet
White around your crown

Daffodils blowing in wind
Sun shines brightly once again

Glorious vibrant 
Hues, reflect the rays, much joy
Eyes take and treasure

Daffodils shout a 
Welcome to spring, trumpeting
To Narcissus' song

Cool breeze blow against the blooms
Welcome colors fragrant joy

Daffadown Dilly
Jonquil a Southern beauty
Amaryllis' gift

Leontopodium Alpinum

There`s a flower Which loves height Of the mountain tops Growing in crevices of rock It survives sun, wind and snow Where no other species can grow In Austria and Switzerland up in the Alps Leontopodium alpinum is something you may see You need to look carefully and mind where you tread They are beautiful to look at , with a flower so small and white They are better known by the name Edlewiess which can be translated To mean noble and white

Lilac

The lilacs are in bloom right now 
Deep purple, mauve, and white 
Fragrances so heavenly
Even through the night
But in the cluster one stands out
Different from the rest
She's a lilac there's no doubt
But grander I attest

She's like no other flower
More beautiful, more wise 
More magnificent than the Alps
At least to my brown eyes
She's all three colors wrapped in one
She's something to behold
The other lilacs are all the same
But her colors are made from gold

Random Thoughts

Today,as i lay impatiently in wait
for my ever elusive headway
regrets and pains awash me

The should have's and could have's
the imbalance of nature
the failures of Mama Africa


Maybe,my optimism is far-fetched
but then,i shouldn't be chastised
for being too much of a believer
in a world that bore so much promise


When did we become faceless?
how did we inherit the alps heart?


The cycle of wrongs seem endless
A soothsayer once said to me
"Hold still,yearn little and hope 
nothing"

Bouquet

Parlez-vous Français?
No, but I wish I did 
Then it would be much easier
If ever we did live
In Annecy or perhaps Provence 
Or somewhere in the Alps of France
I'd love you often, all day long
Serenade you with French love songs
Evenings in Paris, the city aglow
Stroll Champs Elysees at a pace that is slow
And unhurried, why rush? It's only us two
In the City of Love, where all things are new
And how honored I'd be to be walking around
With you on my arm, the talk of the town
