"Ging heut Morgen übers Feld"
I went this morning over the field,
Dew still hung on the grass;

The happy finch spoke to me:
"Hey you! Right? Good morning!

Hey, right, you,
Isn't it a lovely world, lovely world?
Quoted from Mahler's "Songs of a Wayfarer"

DeleteSoftness, purity of nature, and I can almost hear the quiet, but imagine the sound of birds...of course ;)

DeleteIndeed, what the Japanese call "forest therapy" is a perfect way to bring peace and serenity into your soul. These images fulfill the lyrics of the song quite well.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kate!
DeleteIt was such a beautiful walk, right after the rain had stopped.
One of my fondest memories of rain in May.
Such gorgeous photos! I love that "new-growth" shade of green.
ReplyDeleteMaigrün, may green, is what a friend called it recently.
DeleteMagnificent! Love the spring palette of colors. One of your best, Merisi.
