Europe 2009

Europe has many great cities
Including London, Paris and Rome.
Rivers are mentioned in songs and ditties:
The Danube, the Rhine and the Rhone.
Longstanding classical buildings
Attract tourists from over the sea
Structures updated, protected
As great works of art should be.
God being willing ~ standards of living
Will reach a higher degree,
And people will be happy and healthy
In the United Europe of the free.
