Happy August with a wonderful poem by Erich Kästner

Betty MacDonald fan club - and Vita Magica fans, we wish you a wonderful August with a wonderful poem by Erich Kästner. Many kind regards Astrid ------------------------------------------------------- Now the year raises the scythe And mows the summer days like a farmer. He who sows must mow. And he who mows must sow. Nothing remains, my heart. And everything is permanent. Hollyhocks stand behind the fence In their old, brittle silk costumes. The sunflowers, luxuriant, blond and brown, with veils in front of their faces, look like women, who went on a trip to the capital. When did they travel? Hardly during the day. They always shone golden in the pack. When did they travel? Perhaps in a dream? At night, when the scent of the linden tree wafted sweetly past them? In books one reads large and wide, that even the infinite is not infinite. One twists and turns space and time. One is cleverer than clever, - the incomprehensible remains incomprehensible. A harvest cart sways through the field. The garden smells of mint and camomile. You can see the heat. And you hear the silence. How small the whole world is today! How large and boundless is the idyll ... Nothing remains, my heart. Soon the day will say goodnight. Into somewhere, like tears without sorrow. Then wish your wish, but take good care! Nothing remains, my heart. And everything is permanent. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Satire ist mein Lieblingstier by Wolfgang Hampel is the best book with which to start the day. Satire ist mein Lieblingstier conjures golden laughter on our lips. Also highly recommended in the evening with a glass of wine or two I can't stop laughing and that is mainly due to this excellent book. Laughter is very healthy - especially in these difficult times. #Amazon ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can order one of the most humorous books ever----------------------- Satire is my favourite animal by Wolfgang Hampel: -------------------------- national & international--------------------- USA , United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Germany, Hungary, Japan , Japan, Mexico, Austria, a href="https://www.ceneo.pl/73409302">Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------- Wolfgang Hampel in the SWR 3 television programme HERZSCHLAG-MOMENTE on Saturday, 3 August 2019, at 9:50 pm.
