-1-
The Swiss tiles
Stuck their colours on the rooftops
And craned to see you...
-2-
The Alps shed their snowy cloaks
And bowed to catch your breath...
-3-
The famous Longines watches
Set the time of your arrival
Just as the year sets its seasons,
So that the Rhine wouldn't be surprised...
And rage!
-4-
Lake Lucerne...
Granted its fish a vacation
No longer than the moment you passed
By its shores...
So, they might learn to swim
In the sea of your eyes...
-5-
My presence with you is strange...
Neither Switzerland welcomed me,
Nor your shy smile...
Look at me...
For Swiss eyes see me only through yours.
