Shredder aurora
An uni, muenster swisses
into the feta


On the glowing dawn
A gorgonzolaing cheese calls
the moo cow kisses


Meandering thoughts
A pale provolone cuddles
italian couples

A tiny mouse tip-toed cross my path
   Arose immediately my wrath 
Set for him, a pungent mousetrap
   Filled with muenster cheese

Tingling all over, anticipating a bloodbath 
   I cringed at myself, a bona fide psychopath
Gloating over the creature's perceived unease
   How dare he forget to say "Please?"...

At breakfast time, don’t give me eggs
Or pancakes or French toast;
Some coffee and a cheese-topped bagel
Is what I like most.

Gouda, Muenster, Edam, Swiss,
American or Brie;
Jarlsberg, Asiago, Jack –
They all work fine for me.

I’m not a fan of smelly ones,
And blue cheese I despise;
I guess I’m more pedestrian
And not so worldly-wise.

But still, I’d like to offer praise
To every type that pleases;
The world would be a sadder place
If it did not have cheeses....

Heidi comes to mind the instant I hear the word Switzerland.
I see snow-capped mountains, sparkling waters, vast meadows
Bern tour will include medieval clock tower and Muenster Cathedral
I will include Lucerne’s chapel bridge and Montreaux, on Lake Geneva

Dare I visit the berg of Zermatt, named for Alpine’s meadows?
Do you realize this is a car-free resort town?
I may have to peek at Geneva, home to peacekeeping organizations
Peacekeeping and neutrality the mainstay of Swiss politics....
