Raindrops on forts and gardens in spring,
In
, Jaipur, Jodhpur, and Udaipur sing;
Mighty rivers, winter winds, snowflakes in the sky,
In
, Kaliningrad, Leningrad, and Volgograd fly!
Foggy mornings, castle towers, and tea-time treat,
In the
, Birmingham, Nottingham, Waltham meet;
Sausages, Black Forest trails, and fairy-tale delights,
In
, Hamburg, Ravensburg, Freiburg ignites!
Canals and tulips, windmills turning bright,
In the
, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and Zaandam alight;
Golden temples, monkeys roaming by the shore,
In
, Chonburi, Lopburi, and Phetchaburi soar!
Spices, rivers, bustling bazaars everywhere,
In
, Faisalabad, Hyderabad, and Islamabad share;
Southern charm, country tunes, music all 'round,
In the
, Jacksonville, Louisville, and Nashville sound!
Tea gardens, lantern lights, rivers flowing wide,
In
, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, and Suzhou glide;
Golden sands, kangaroo hops, tides that shimmer and sway,
In
, Hamilton, Harrington, and Werrington play!
When the place names rhyme,
When the compasses swing,
When the maps flip;
I simply remember my favourite places,
And then the world feels fun!
