An Austrian Summer 2012


The summer
spent

far from the sands
of times and tides

the daily papers
pushed aside

from tonic breeze
and lemon sun

one's length
and breadth

 An Austrian Lake
no longer washed
in wars and propaganda . . .

  2. A wonderful piece to read early on a Sunday morning in steamy St. Louis, Missouri. Thank you for writing it.

  3. Pat and Donal, thanks, it has been warm and thundery here but not too steamy.

    As a curious aside I haven't seen any wasps this year . . . where did they go?
