Switzerland Poetry

The miniature and multi-colored cables cars

Set off in a blink of an eye from side to side

While penetrating through the immeasurable 

Atmosphere of the natural world.

The majestic summit

ascends like a shimmering twilight as 

misty cumulus clouds fade away behind the

incandescent, crimson, golden sun. Ice-cold,

frosty snow envelops the brown colored,

life-size mountains.

As the cable cars proceed abruptly downward,

The vast region occupies the luxuriant meadow

with black and white patterned cows. Breezy

current of air propels the evergreen trees as the

leaves collapse adequately to the flourishing grass.

The wintry weather reveals ambiance on the Evergreen

trees of the detaching of the leaves. Perceiving the sound

of the jingling bells dangling from the cow’s neckline

leads to peacefulness that inhabits the expanse.

I wrote this poem during my childhood when I was 13 years old for a school poem. I thought about my experience traveling & visiting the stunning and gorgeous country of Switzerland. I started to walk down memory lane after reading my poem after 11 years. The sound of the ringing bells on cows resonating in my ears, the cool breeze touching the gentle skin of my face  & the vast beauty of Mother Nature that inhabits the region reflecting on the cornea of my eyes all paints a lovely picture of all of those treasured memories during my experience in Switzerland! Oh how I wish I could go back to those good old days but hoping to visit Switzerland sometime in the near future 🙂
