bright and golden
this morning
of my kitchen, after it had climbed
over the roofs
dark tatters of high fog
shrouded the view of this hooded crow
perched in a tree at least seven stories high -
reminders of the power of the Danube river gods,
always ready to play havoc with the Viennese weather forecasts
where mostly innubilious skies may or may not mean you'll see the sun

Oh your kitchen tiles, how lovely!!! Better weather for another day~
ReplyDeleteThe kitchen tiles, they came with the apartment. I have gotten so used to them, I'd miss them if they went away. ;-) They to reflect light nicely, though.
DeleteAh - gorgeous shots indeed!
ReplyDeleteThe hooded crow! I'm gonna use that as a story title sometime.
ReplyDeleteTerrific captures as always, Merisi! I do love your bright kitchen!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cherry cheerful kitchen! With those tiles and coffee days must start on the right note (a bit of Viennese Waltz or maybe Marcha a la Turka).
ReplyDeleteGreat photos for SWF,Merisi!
ReplyDeletegreat way of capturing the changing weather.
ReplyDeleteHooray! You found us!!
ReplyDeleteExquisite pictures, I like your kitchen beautifully lit. Greeting.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots. Makes it worth getting up and out.
ReplyDeleteIt was sunny today? Really? Being at work I didn´t notice the sun... On Monday and Tuesday, when I had the days off, there was not even one ray of sunlight... Your kitchen looks great!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you were able to catch some sun! It seems like the weather and sky can change on a dime! Happy Skywatching!
ReplyDeleteMerisi, your poetic reporting of how morning light changes as it arrives, connected to your marvelous photo of the hooded crow, somehow jostled my mind around to a new wondering.
ReplyDeleteOver here in the States, birds fly southward for the winter, and because I have lived south and north along our Atlantic coast, I've years of experience in viewing the migrations. So...silly me, I've never really wondered about the similar migrations of various bird species in the closer European climate ranges.
Yes, I do know some of the markers, like the swallows, but never have quite thought about just which birds might be able to winter in northern European climates.
And so, dear Merisi, I thank you yet again for getting my mind to rotate past its normal circling.
