Study Abroad Poetry: Germany

by Isabella Raffone



Germany


Oktoberfest is an annual celebration in Munich that gives a glimpse of the culture and brings joy to anyone who takes part in the festivities!


Oktoberfest

Cheers and Chants roaring through the tents as the men and women

dance in the traditional wear of dress and leather shorts.


They listen to live music with liters of golden liquid in their glass yelling, “Prost!”

Fairgrounds filled with children running as parents chase after them

while they dart to get in line to ride the ups, downs, twists, and turns of the wild three-week event.


Pork and pretzels fill the bellies of all the hungry millions.

Gingerbread hearts strung to display on their necks.


Crowds continue to gather, the traditions remain alive,

and noise remains at full octave throughout the night.
