 <\/p>\n

Today’s photographs try to capture that peace, with an occasional smiling nod to the differences in taste when it comes to decoration, and appreciation for the history that these places convey.<\/p>\n

The poem below, by German Jewish refugee Hans Sahl, should be familiar to ydp<\/strong> readers since I posted it some years back, but I am holding it close to my heart and thought\u00a0it might move us again.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Strophen<\/strong><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ich gehe langsam aus der Welt heraus
\nin eine Landschaft jenseits aller Ferne,
\nund was ich war und was ich bin und was ich bleibe
\ngeht mit mir ohne Ungeduld und Eile
\nin ein bisher noch nicht betretenes Land<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Ich gehe langsam aus der Zeit heraus
\nin eine Zukunft jenseits aller Sterne,
\nund was ich war und was ich bin und immer bleiben werde
\ngeht mit mir ohne Ungeduld und Eile,
\nals w\u00e4r ich nie gewesen oder kaum.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I go slowly hence from the world
\nInto a domain beyond all distance,
\nAnd what I was and am and shall remain
\nGoes with me hasteless and forebearing
\nInto a country ’til yet untrod<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I go slowly hence from time
\nInto a future beyond the stars,
\nAnd what I was and am and ever shall remain
\nGoes with me hasteless and forebearing,
\nAs though I’d not, or scarcely, ever been.<\/div>\n
