You enter the country
Someone will follow you
And kill you gently
In a dark alley

There was a man from Switzerland
Who Lived a life of glitz and glam
He never thought
That he'd get caught
Covering all his bits in jam

'Degenerate ' Kirchner had no place to hide
closed his life in suicide
There in Switzerland ,in exile
it seemed his art  *was unsuited to Nazi style

Scenic Switzerland - El

Land of lush forested hills, Such exquisiteness gives thrills, Sparkling Alpine lakes delight, Their pristine glow glitters bright, Azure touches the meadows, A whisper of cloud shadows, Land of lush forested hills. 07.06.2021

Carly Tait

Carly was born on 2nd January 1986,
And was so impressed by 2012 London, 
That upon wheelchair racing she’d fix,   
Until she made the world’s palladium. 

In 2014 she competed in Switzerland, 
An then in 2016 she flew to Grosseto, 
In Italy, where the Europeans did land,
And she won 2 silvers, then came Rio.

Premium Member Only One True Mattahorn

Matterhorn means mountain peak of the meadows
In a pyramidal shape, she has four faces
Her south face is in Valtourmenche Valley, Italy.
North, west and east faces are claimed by Switzerland.

She has regular avalanches
Her active snow accumulates into glaciers
Others claim they have their own Matterhorn.
There is only one, between Switzerland and Italy.

Vladimir Putin

Pakistan is a cemetery..
When a Pakistani becomes rich
his bank accounts are in switzerland..
He invests in Dubai..
He consumes chinese..
He prays in Rome..
He travels to london for medical treatment..
His children study in europe..
If he die he will be buried in his native country..
Pakistan is just a cemetery for Pakistanis...
How could a cemetery be developed???

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.

My Country Land

MY COUNTRY LAND

Oh my Cameroon,
From the colors of a desiring mind,
Hums from an ancestral hands,
The Switzerland of an African land,

It true nature, beauty of it kind,
Footage from it Holy mount,
Memorable of Her outstanding sounds,
Falling unto its Historical towns,

Oh thou flow at two fathoms,
Seized from her master tongue,
Sparkly remarkable it Unity star,
Drawn down peace, love and fatherland.

This poetic form has 5 words of 5 letters or 6 words of 6 letters (or even 3 as above) or 7words of 7 letters & so on with a pastoral theme.I call this form a FULTON as a tribute to Hamish and his art.

With Shoes On Feet

a grab-and-run pack
a small survival sack
with one set of clothes for spouse and self
passports, a file with just few mails
an old diary with addresses to contact
in England, Finland, and Switzerland

and some currency notes
couple of thousands
in rupees that does not stretch
like the American dollars
they were what i needed most

as the pogrom was in progress
in my Tamil homeland
while i always went to bed
with shoes on my feet

We Are Chopped Mint

We are hanging hams, are we
in cellars off the coastal sea
licked by Mediterranean breeze

or foot-smashed grapes in Tuscany
afloat in oaken barrels, we
as flavors gain complexity.

Everyone is clever, everyone is bright
We are salt and we are light

We're the craft of chocolatiers
(from Switzerland with warm
hands on cold mountaintops.)

We are slowly sipped espresso.  We are chopped mint.

We indeed are crème brûlée
formed by hand like potter's clay.

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
