My faithful willow,
How long has it been since our first encounter?
Winter time and you were barren
I wandered, searching
While your friends and you watched
Under the gloomy, cold sky
Spring time and you smiled
I cycled, gazing
Your fresh foliage grew and rustled
Under the caress of the Sun
Summer time is here
And still I find you there
Sitting in your full glory
Parting time is pending, my friend
Should we part in tears?
Should we part in poignant smile?
I never knew how to say goodbye
So let me do it my way
No goodbye for you, my not-special-yet-sweet city. I have come silently, so silently will I leave. May we see each other again one day... perhaps when the autumn leaves fall.
Anes and MinDan, my two lovely hosts in Vienna :) in front of the Freud Museum
Every corner of Vienna reminds one of the Austro-Hungarian Empire... there are a LOT of statues and grand structures like this in the city
Schloss Schönbrunn
Stephansdom, my favourite gothic church in Europe so far
The roof mosaic of Stephansdom
Karlskirche, pretty baroque church (MD takes very good photos!)
Visit to the music city, Vienna is incomplete without a concert! (met guofan and hui wen - anes' and my secondary school friends - here... i like coincidence!)
Danube at night
"The Kiss" by Gustav Klimt - one of the permanent exhibits at the Upper Belvedere gallery... the golden colours of this work is really captivating
