Premium Membersharp weapons

As we sailed the fast river of Rhône
the steady sun bleached it a sparkling gold
like the treasures of Caesar’s kingdom

A curtain of fawn-silken tackle, shaded 
back the fervidly garish star scatter,
and cooling flower-scented airs tickled
the senses like touching down-soft silk
 
"zhuang hong zhuang sheng" (Chinese)
“Put on airs’ - Peter and I are Gatsby gilded.
Why not

Premium MemberSeeing Switzerland

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?

Premium MemberA Waterfall In Switzerland

Perhaps I had fallen asleep
Like Rip Van Winkle
And had pleasant dreams.
Who knows?
All I know I woke one day 
In an earthly paradise.

As I exited my room, onto the balcony,
I saw an awesome landscape.
And for all that is good
I have no recollection of the name
Of the place I found myself in.

Cliffs surrounded the little village.
On top

Premium MemberScenic 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.

A paradise
You enter the country
Someone will follow you
And kill you gently
In a dark alley
Paradise never was so relaxed

A Man From Switzerland

There was a man from Switzerland
Who Lived a life of glitz and glam
He never thought

Russeckstrasse, Zofingen, Switzerland

The house was silent when I woke,
I wrapped up warm and went to smoke.
I tip-toed through my cousin's home,
(when I die, it's here I'll roam.)

In the kitchen, I poured some tea
and climbed up on the window seat.
These European windows swing
inward, such a novel thing.

Old wooden shutters, they swing out
and as they do I almost shout,
apparently,
