Under Blue, Blue Skies,A doe, a deer,
A
A ray,
A wrought iron store sign,
announcing an apothecary's shop
9:00am yesterday
in Bad Ischl
A White Benchunder blue skies
by the green mountain river
invites you to dream
Green Wooden Shuttersand a sun-drenched,
apricot tinted façade
greets early birds,cheering them on
to feast on the joys
of this glorious Spring morning
In the meantime,down by the river,
Zauner's Esplanade Café
has opened for morning revelers,
keeping them soft on pink cushions
to better take in the green river
flowing by

ReplyDeleteThe sky in image 1 is so beautiful
My GAWD it looks gorgeous there!
ReplyDeleteWe have it too in NYC and I can't believe it.
I LOVE your new AVATAR!!!

That's a really cool sign. And such a contrast against that bluest sky.
ReplyDeleteHi ! I dropped to your boog to say just "Hi". I love Vienna, it is one of my favourite European cities and I like Austria a lot so it is blog for me;) Greetings from Chiara from Warsaw, Poland,

Ja, im Salzkammergut da ka'man gut lustig sein!
ReplyDeleteLovely clrear green of the meltstrean and such gentle and genteel pastel architecture. There is nothing nicer than enjoying the sunshine in a riverbank cafe.
This place is so beautiful! I love the colors.
ReplyDeleteSoooooooooooo civilized! And such a sky...though I do not complain because today, for the first time in weeks [no exageration] our sky is blue too...though we lack a pretty cafe with really good coffee.
ReplyDeleteThe sign against the Sky is quite gorgeous...it's still snowing here but Spring is coming :0)
ReplyDeleteI want to be there NOW!
ReplyDeleteI want to be there NOW!
ReplyDeleteThe apothecary sign is exquisite...and your photo so crisp that I can almost reach out and touch it! But my favorite? The Apricot Architecture and Green shutters!!! Such beautiful detail, and color...it almost looks edible...hmm..I should not stop here at lunch time...You are ALWAYS bad for the diet ;-) Simply spectacular, as always, dear Merisi...Sorry I have missed a number of posts this past week...so busy with the Easter season...but it is so good to settle into my routine again today, and join to you for a delicious cup of Viennese coffee! Love, Janine XO
ReplyDeleteI love all the colors. The river really is green!!
ReplyDeleteThat bench looks like a perfect place to sit & read and wrote poetry.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful as always, Merisi. I particularly like the last one, of the two women at the cafe. There's something about it that makes it look like a painting. That effect is hard to find, and I always enjoy it when I do find it. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI want to sit on that white bench and watch the river go by. Simply lovely.
