*The translation
of "Goldau" by "Golden Mead" as the name in German
suggests is actually wrong. According to the "Deutsches
Wörterbuch von Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm" GOL, also GOLETEN,
noun, designs debris, gravel and is used in Switzerland namely in
compounds of field names. This explanation is certainly more logic than
a connection with "gold" given the long history of mountain
collapses in this region.

My Forest Long years ago fateful clouds, heralds of the Golden Mead's end, gathered over a peaceful place on the shore of a jewel-like lake. Rain changed the face of the valley, when all expired under the falling mountain.
The renewer of life, spring returned. Plants grew again on the tomb. Strong conifers rose on rocks, overshadowing with their wide branches many greencovered caves, secret places of joyful play.
After many years, I found vanished my childhood's magic place. This time killed by the hands of men. A large road marred the place like a terrible scar a pretty face.
