Following in the footsteps of Roman


Ponte Pietra is a roman bridge, the oldest building in Verona. It is built over the river Adige. Originally built in the first century BCE it was rebuilt in 1298 by Alberto della Scala. 
Along the time due to flooding, and the bombardments during the Second World War, he underwent several repairs. They gave special form today, bending and asymmetric arches, totally different from the original architecture, but with a special charm.




Have a good time with eekend reflections!

Spring notes

Note de primavara
George Bacovia
(1881 - 1957)

Verde crud, verde crud...

Mugur alb, şi roz şi pur,
Vis de-albastru şi azur,
Te mai văd, te mai aud!

Oh, punctează cu-al tău foc,
Soare, soare...
Corpul ce întreg mă doare,
Sub al vremurilor joc.

Dintr-un fluier de răchită,
Primăvară,
O copilă poposită la fîntînă
Te îngînă
Pe cîmpia clară...

Verde crud, verde crud...
Mugur alb, şi roz şi pur,
Te mai văd, te mai aud,
Vis de-albastru şi azur.





Spring Notes
George Bacovia
romanian poet
(1881 -1957)


Green green, fresh green
Pink and pure white bud
Dream of blue and azure
You see, I hear.

A dot with yours fire
Sun, Sun
What whole body hurts
Under the old time game.

Green green, fresh green
Pink and pure white bud
Dream of blue and azure
You see, I hear.

From a willow whistle
Spring,
A girl stopped at the fountain
I murmured
Clear the field.

Green green, fresh green
Pink and pure white bud
I see you're breaking
Dream of blue and azure.





Have a nice weekend with "weekend reflections"!
