The "Frivolous" is there to entice you ... - the "Fragments" are there for you to make sense of......

that's the best picture. for this very poem. and those wandering lightful lines...
and yet it was another photo that reminded me of these lines :-)
wandering lines, yes. so i wonder all the more why "wandern" was translated by "drift" and not "wander"? (wow so many w's)
i think maybe drift captures more the intention- and aimless movement...it's maybe more gentle also than actual wander
wonderful!
@ antonia: you're right, drift is more, well, drifting . leaves would be drifting, & not wandering
@ roxana: :-) thanks!
