One May Day: Switzerland

Janet Kuypers
1/17/24

Sure, I might have a Swiss Army knife,
and sure, I might have a thing for chocolate,
but when you get away from the Alps,

which are sixty percent of the land, the terrain
looks like the Midwest United States.
Away from Zurich, the terrain looked like Ohio,
Indiana, Iowa. Same hills, same foliage...

Same expanse, looking for something new. And all
that remained to carry was a big backpack of trinkets
and far too many memories to cherish

before they slip away.
