noch die Stadt
In the distance, a nightingale,
closer by, an Amsel sings,
and a rose petal holds on
to the last drop of last night's rain
hurries off with last night's dreams
Photographed Saturday morning
in the Rose Garden of Volksgarten Park

ReplyDeleteThe statue is part of one of the fountains in architect Friedrich Ohmann's memorial for Elisabeth, Empress of Austria. Here are a few more pictures:
