From the poetic cycle "The 13 Months" by German Author Erich Kästner.

Please excuse,dear friends, no translation.

Wishing you a peaceful and happy Sunday of 2nd Advent.

Nachdenkliches aus dem Gedichtzyklus "Die 13 Monate"

von Erich Kästner.

Ich liebe diesen kleinen Gedichteband,in dem Kästner die Schönheit, aber auch die melancholischen Seiten der jeweiligen Jahreszeit beschreibt.

Eines seiner romantischsten und idyllischsten Werke.

 

Ich wünsche Euch einen friedvollen 2. Advent.

Der Dezember

 

Das Jahr ward alt. Hat dünnes Haar.

Ist gar nicht sehr gesund.

Kennt seinen letzten Tag, das Jahr.

Kennt gar die letzte Stund.

  

Ist viel geschehn. Ward viel versäumt.

Ruht beides unterm Schnee.

Weiß liegt die Welt, wie hingeträumt.

Und Wehmut tut halt weh.

  

Noch wächst der Mond. Noch schmilzt er hin.

Nichts bleibt. Und nichts vergeht.

Ist alles Wahn. Hat alles Sinn.

Nützt nichts, dass man's versteht.

  

Und wieder stapft der Nikolaus

durch jeden Kindertraum.

Und wieder blüht in jedem Haus

der goldengrüne Baum.

  

Warst auch ein Kind. Hast selbst gefühlt,

wie hold Christbäume blühn.

Hast nun den Weihnachtsmann gespielt

und glaubst nicht mehr an ihn.

  

Bald trifft das Jahr der zwölfte Schlag.

Dann dröhnt das Erz und spricht:

"Das Jahr kennt seinen letzten Tag,

und du kennst deinen nicht."

 

(Erich Kästner)

  

Very cold, but so beautiful.

I spotted this Tortoise and his Human Pal taking an ocean-front walk along the cliffs of Palos Verdes California. One thing about California, you will usually find something interesting or unusual, even when you're not looking for it : )

 

The Tortoise:

 

Tortoises are "cold-blooded," meaning their body temperature varies with the surrounding environment. They are also herbivores, meaning they eat plants. Tortoises are found in a variety of habitats, including deserts, forests, grasslands, and swamps.

 

There are over 300 species of tortoises, and they come in a wide range of sizes. The smallest tortoise is the speckled padloper tortoise, which is only about 4 inches long. The largest tortoise is the Galapagos tortoise, which can grow to be over 150 pounds.

 

Tortoises are long-lived animals. Some species can live for over 100 years. The oldest known tortoise is a Galapagos tortoise named Jonathan, who is over 190 years old.

 

Here are some interesting facts about tortoises:

 

Tortoises have been around for over 200 million years.

 

The largest tortoise ever recorded was a Galapagos tortoise named "Johnathan" who weighed over 500 pounds and was over 190 years old.

 

Tortoises are very good at conserving water. They can go for long periods of time without drinking.

 

Tortoises are not very good swimmers.

 

Tortoises are very social animals and enjoy spending time with other tortoises.

 

Tortoises can be very affectionate and make great pets.

View towards west from the observation deck of the new Shanghai Tower, currently the tallest building in Shanghai and the second tallest in the world.

 

This is the big Huangpu River bend, with the Bund, the mouth of Suzhou Creek and the twin towers of the Shanghai IFC in the lower foreground.

 

I added some notes to identify buildings or other features in the picture, some of these notes contain links.

 

And, as usual, flickr wrongly assigns "Hongkou" as location name.

The National Monument of Victor Emmanuel II. It is also known as Altare della Patria (Altar of the Fatherland) and Il Vittoriano. It was built to honour the first king of the unified Italy. It was designed by Giuseppe Sacconi. The work was begun in 1885, inaugurated in 1911 and finished in 1935.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber is one the best-preserved medieval cities in Germany and undoubtedly one of the prettiest towns on the Romantic Road.

 

The most photographed bit of Rothenburg is the Plönlein a fork in the road at the south end of town where Spitalgasse, the main road, is split in two by a half-timbered house and both branches run under city gates just beyond, the Siebers Tower and the Kobolzeller Gate.

 

I got there early in the morning and missed the crowds of tourists.

 

A view upstream the Pegnitz river. The building on the left is the Heilig-Geist-Spital, built 1339. The Reichskleinodien (Imperial Regalia) were stored there from 1424 to 1796.

 

The Schuldturm tower in the center was built in 1323 as part of the town fortifications. As the city grew and new fortifications were built further outside the town, the tower found new use as debtors' prison, thus the name Schuldturm (lit. "debt tower").

Dream and Reality ..... two separate and different Worlds ....

united by an invisible thread,

on which only children and Dreamers

can run with their eyes closed .... without fear of falling ......

 

Sogno e Realtà .... due Mondi separati e diversi ...

uniti da un filo invisibile, su cui solo i bambini e i Sognatori,

sanno correre ad occhi chiusi ..... senza paura di cadere ….

Because your heart loves who it chooses, without any doubt or reasoning...

 

The world is full of love that goes unspoken. It doesn’t mean that it is felt less deeply… its beauty and its pain are in its silence.

Why don't you stay

I'm down on my knees

I'm so tired of being lonely

Don't I give you what you need

When she calls you will go

There is one thing you should know

We don't have to live this way

Baby why don't you stay
