No need to frown,
When we docked in the center of this Medieval town .

While the church bells rang in harmony,
It was liking stepping back in history.

It was a serene walk thru this town called Koper,
With no billboards pushing a whopper.

It is very old but well maintained
And also here since 1991 independence they gained.

Ruled by many countries in history,
They are very happy to be free

We were welcomed by a band that played polka’s
And we were served local wine and vodka’s

All around here,
We felt a pleasant atmosphere.

People seem relaxed in a beautiful park by the sea
While for an enemy they no longer have to flee

A soothing ambiance in the air,
Like we have not felt on this cruise anywhere

I would not mind at some time to revisit
To experience more of this leisurely spirit
