\"Prof.<\/a>

Prof. Dietrich Fischer<\/p><\/div>\n

By closing the book
\nOf your dream of peace
\nIt\u2019s a shocked silence
\nThose who you know<\/p>\n

Inside the chapters
\nOf you great life
\nHas been highlighted
\nAnd you have are gone<\/p>\n

As nouns verbs and adjectives
\nOf your kind humanity
\nIn several chapters
\nShowed us not as an example
\nBut as a precept<\/p>\n

You are the master
\nThe slave inside
\nTo whom you loved
\nTo work for the people<\/p>\n

Once up on a time
\nThe Magnolien<\/em> Park
\nWhere you lived
\nIn the city of peace academy placed
\nA park of peace
\nWhere you lived in Basel<\/p>\n

Opened doors of
\nYour humble time
\nSupportive heart
\nReserved for others<\/p>\n

Guests of invited
\nMost of evenings
\nBy tasty smells
\nOf a cook of peace
\nDecorated and hardly prepared<\/p>\n

A joke for a story
\nA story for a joke
\nA lesson for the life
\nThrough a joke<\/p>\n

A positive memory
\nOf your genius mind
\nThe shadow of your great soul
\nLights up though you are gone<\/p>\n

You makes all laugh
\nWhile making happy
\nYou gave more than hoped
\nWithout a profit in return<\/p>\n

A man rarely can leave
\nBy placing an indelible foot print
\nOn the sand of heart
\nAnd mind of others
