The Swiss watch is the world’s finest time piece.  
A magnificently delicate device of considerable strength,
Held together perfectly in a handsome gold casing.

Its silky-smooth gears swish forever a perfect beat.
While the gentle power of the capable inner mechanism,
Produces without question, a flawless dependability.

This timekeeper never misses a beat, not a millisecond.
A classic instrument designed by expert human hands;
Hands once crafted and forever formed in the Cosmos.

A most faithful tempo holder, honest as the day is long.
Steadfast thus trustworthy throughout its lifetime;
No shirk of mission, no need of reward, no what’s in it for me.

Truly a dependable presence inside a solid durable structure.
A calm humility, on an open face, never an expectation of reward,
Merely genuine recognition by a gentle spirit on a simple mission.

To offer help, to care deeply, to live humbly, to turn to God.
With only a modest wish for kindly remembrance, the Swiss watch;
Ticks on eternally, into eternity, within the hearts of all who loved him.
