October Morning
Vienna in Autumn


The world's adream in fog's embrace *
Sunday Morning in Vienna at 8:01:48

Im Nebel ruhet noch die Welt,
Noch träumen Wald und Wiesen.
Bald siehst Du, wenn der Schleier fällt,
Den blauen Himmel unverstellt,
Herbstkräftig die gedämpfte Welt
In warmem Golde fließen.
Eduard Mörike

    1. Despair here last night, upon reading your weather forecast.
      Drizzly and cold here. It does not seem fair. :-(
