" Will dir den Frühling zeigen…"

Will dir den Frühling zeigen ,
der hundert Wunder hat.
Der Frühling ist waldeigen
und kommt nicht in die Stadt.
    R.Rilke

Want to show you spring
that has a hundred wonders.
Spring belongs solely to the forest
and does not come to the city.
R.Rilke
(my translation of the original German poem)




 I spent the last two weeks in the French countryside and one of the greatest pleasures is going on long walks . Nature at its best, with small winding creeks, wild flowers and the first green of spring.
