Impressions From Bayreuth, Bavaria | Photo Diary

I love to sit in silence

Beneath the shady trees

And listen to the song of birds

And to the buzz of bees

I love to sit in silence

And watch the clouds roll by

Then read a book or sing a song

And hear the wild bird cry

I love to sit in silence

When the day is almost done

And see behind the distant hill

The paint glow of the sun.

I love to sit in silence

In the evening twilight

And listen to the whippor-will

Singing with all its might

I love to sit in silence

Beneath the starry sky

And pray to God in earnest

To live in silence all the while.

A little bit of a different post today as I decided to have a little poem accompany my photos from Bayreuth, a beautiful city in Bavaria and home to Richard Wagner and his famous operas. We visited the Eremitage a wonderfully quaint place on the outskirts of town and former country home of the margraves and Bayreuth's upper class and as you can see I couldn't help myself but take lots and lots of photos. Let me know what you think of this type of post. Do you like it? Leave me a comment and tell me how you feel about it :)

Lots of Love,
Jess
