White and purple Fliederinvite you in
To pull up a chair
And join the conversation
The warm glowof a Fazzoletto lamp
Illuminatingyellow and orange tulips
Stacks of plates and bowlsbeckoning
to be filled with ambrosia
Bone china cupssitting on the shelf,
dreaming of being filled with
fragrant teas from the Orient
A girlin a flowerprint summer dress
standing on tiptoe,
peaking over a fence
Getting lost in a bookor ready to leave, and
endless possibilities
in between

Just the place I'd love to settle in, for the afternoon . . .
ReplyDeleteLooks like a good place to sit down and spend some time writing poetry.

Hmm. I love how rustic that place looks. I agree with the two previous comments. It does look like quite a cozy, quiet place to have a lovely cup of hot chocolate.
ReplyDelete@ tut-tut:
ReplyDeleteIt is also lovely to spend time there in the evening. I took the photos during the early evening hours.
@ Cathy:
I agree. Can you make out the piano and the books in the back of the room? The people who run this wonderful place also publish books under the "Verlag der Provinz" label.
@ Ann (mobaydp):
Yes, the rooms are filled with furniture that bespeak a sense of loving attention to create a simple, yet beautifully welcoming atmosphere.
very beautiful as always
ReplyDeleteHi Merisi, I do love the specific atmosphere of your pictures...
ReplyDeleteNever been to Café der Province but it looks very inviting!
I also love your post on "Roter Berg" with the Heurigen "Wildsau". Wonderful panorama there, and I remember a sommer evening with friends and delicious food (Schweinsbraten mit Sauerkraut) last year.
Best regards, Maria
I can imagine the smell of the Flieder!

You're the one who finds the endless possibilities and captures them so perfectly!
