My Gazing Place

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: April 27, 2024

Thoughts inspired by a view from Luzern, Switzerland from a watchtower on a medieval wall…

There is a place I like to climb
where beauty gives me pause to rhyme
as I look down on old Luzern
and play with words I love.

It is a place from which I gaze
at sights that prompt my heart to praise
the One who’s left His fingerprints
for those who dust to find.

This is a place in my Luzern
where I reflect on what I’ve learned
from times like these when I take time
to still my mind and see.
