GIETHOORN, A VILLAGE WITHOUT ROADS
Meandering down the halcyon lake
that gurgles serenely and keeps us awakeÂ
sans wherewithal guide, set the daring sail
got lost in a maze, no one let out a plaintive wail
No point of entry to this Edenic place
out of reach, but soaked in grace
arcadian and monastery still
only sounds of rippling duck's quillÂ
A fairytale village on a marshland
where old thatched - roof houses stand
divergent hydrangeas hues lead the way
won't let ' whisper boats " astray
Giethoorn or " Goat horns' is its name
stuck in stasis, a worldwide fame
Chinese tourists flock at unprecedented pace
leaving ' NI HAO'Â everywhere a trace
Land of water, wooden old bridges juxtaposeÂ
with medieval and city life - bringing to a close
devoid of roads, punters sailing around
' title' owed to goat horns founded in the ground.
