" Der Abschied"
(The Farewell or The Parting)
Austrian Composer Gustav Mahler, 1908
The sun sinks beyond the hills, evening descends into the valleys with its cooling shade. See, like a silver boat the moon sails up into the lake of the sky. I sense a soft wind blowing beyond the dark fir-trees. The brook sings melodiously through the dark. The flowers grow pale in the twilight. The earth breathes a deep draught of rest and sleep. All longing now will dream; tired people go homewards so that they can learn forgotten joy and youth again in sleep! Birds sit motionless on their branches. The world is slumbering! It grows cool in the shade of my fir-trees. I stand and await my friend. I wait for him for our last farewell. O, friend, I long to share the beauty of this evening at your side. Where do you linger? Long you leave me alone! I wander here and there with my lyre on soft grassy paths. O Beauty! O endless love-life-drunken world!

JUST BLOOMED TODAY
GARDEN UPDATE
A little overcast today as another storm is coming in tomorrow. Snow is supposed to be at the 6000ft level so I think we will be safe from frost.
Bees, birds and butterflies taking a lazy day. Think I will, too.
