Banking on the Swiss

Kevin Hulme

Someone asked me the other day,

While Chewing the fat in the usual way:

'Where in the World would you like to Reside,

A Country you'd say that has filled you with Pride' ?

Well it's hard to lay claim to which is the best,

So many Nations from East onto West.

But after a time one Country stood out;

It had to be Switzerland without a Shadow of doubt.

Then he wanted to know why all the big Fuss?

'For starters' I said  'Their Flags a big Plus'.

    Now that has various implications the first the most obvious and the humor of the poem but the second is for those that are religious it kind of looks like a cross, then there are those that just like red and white. A fun read

          Oh, you got me with this one, Kevin! That friendly conversational buildup completely conceals the trap…then comes the gloriously ridiculous payoff. Clever, clean, and genuinely funny. Loved it, my friend! πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
