Question of poem/sayings?

Hi! A long time ago someone posted a poem...maybe dichos de Colombia? It spoke about everything that Colombia offered...It was posted in Spanish and English..
if anyone knows what I am referring to and can direct me to that link I would greatly appreciate it!

It said something about our women, country side, food, all the great things!?
(I did a search and found nothing!)

Thank you!
=)

Desi & Monpirri, thank you so much for taking the time to help me out. I can't think nor quote what I am looking for. I believe it was something in the terms of;

"Colombia es linda por las esmerladas"
"Colombia es linda por las mujeres"

and so forth....does anyone know what I am referring to? I think Mitch might have posted it and still I have no luck finding it..

buenos muchas gracias guys!
