Poem in Ladin language by Roland Verra, read the translation below.
La sajon spënj
de nueva ansciudes
i popui sua de reja
sula rames desnudes
y l vënt me sesurea
stories mei audides
ma mpo uet
ie mi cuer...
**********
The season is breeding
a new springtime
the blossoms sweat with pitch
on the naked branches
and the wind is murmuring
unheard-of-stories to me
but nonetheless
my heart is empty...

Wauu ... lovely yellow flowers. This is a great idea to grow flowers in the wall - beautiful.
I don't know what kind of flowers these are, but they're beautiful.
Thanks for the precious poem, you know I am curious about Ladin, and for the lovely flowers!
Gorgeous flowers, but how do they grow through the wall. I've got weeds growing in cracks in my driveway - I keep poisoning them but they come back in no time at all.
Love the poem. I've got a book of poetry coming out in a few weeks. Hope you'll consider buying it.
I don't recognize those hearty plants on that wall, but they are beautiful. Is the Ladin language derived from Latin?
I love the flowers growing out to the wall. And, I learned something new from this post. I had never heard of the Ladin language so I looked it up. How interesting!
How on earth do they grow out of the wall?
How lovely to have flowers growing right out of the wall! :)
I guess you speak Ladin?
Yes, I do. It is my mother language.
Yes, partially.
That is wonderful the way the flowers grow from the wall, Karl!
I see a flavour of the Latin that I remember from high school in Ladin. Quite interesting to read about on line.
Enjoyable yellow flower images, beautiful and interesting the poem!
Isn't nature amazing!? Great finds.
