This village clings beside the Alpine lake;
as I depart, its spire towers above,
needle-thin. Bells peal as families wake.
This village clings beside the Alpine lake
and in pristine reflection. Near opaque,
the mountain mist obscures a turtle dove.
This village clings beside the Alpine lake
as I depart. Its spire towers above.
