Most people crave for company Because they cannot stand alone But when they are in trouble There will be nobody around The flock surrenders to fear And starts to follow the herd Only the Brave stands alone Heart and Brain bold and strong Vera da Pozzo Paris, 8th June 2026 Poem above and photos below by me. A brave and proud tiny flower of geranium sylvaticum in my beloved Parisian park. A solitary Magpie, alone, but not lonely. Somewhere in Paris, Eve is perfectly happy with

The immense joy to be where I belong: strolling for almost two hours in my beloved Parisian park, enjoying the good company of my Friends, taking some pictures and then sitting in a quiet place, taking a coffee, writing a bit on my diary and also on my blog before starting to work (correction de copies) with plenty of good vibes. Fresh Air, Sun, Trees, Flowers, Birds and Bees are a blessing. A lovely Bee landed on my right arm and stayed there for a while. I did not move and

A very rainy day, especially in the afternoon, but this morning I had the chance to enjoy a one-hour promenade in my beloved and deserted Parisian park. How I was glad to enjoy to be there in complete solitude - but not alone, because there are hundreds and hundreds of friends in leaves, petals or feathers who are happy to meet me again. While I was peacefully walking, suddenly a verse, then another, came to my mind and I wrote a short poem on a tissue, with the help of my de

I can't help noticing Beauty everywhere, wherever I am, even in front of cemetery gates - i. e., school gates. Photos below taken by me somewhere far from Paris.

Detail of a drawing I made on my diary today, after the unexpected meeting with a beautiful Jay near my favourite tree in my beloved Parisian park. Below, my drawing in its whole. As usual, I drew directly with a Bic pen without doing a preparatory sketch. As the jays wear a very beautifully coloured suit, I used my coulour glitter pens to add a touch of colour to this fantastic bird. I love every kind of animals and I am deeply fascinated by all types of birds and other flyi

This morning I have met this lovely robin in the quiet "secret garden" inside my favourite Parisian park. I zoomed a lot because I would not disturb him by coming closer, so this is not an extraordinary picture and I surely would not win a photography prize, but it is a nice souvenir of this unexpected meeting. More and more Good Things to come, indeed. Vera da Pozzo Paris, 27th April 2026 (C) Vera da Pozzo (C) Italy is Mine (C) Italy is Mine and It owes Me a Living...

Two weeks later, I am still in Zurich... with my mind. Happiness is still on my side and all the beautiful flowers and birds of my beloved Parisian park tell me that there are More Good Things to come. Below, some flowers for YOU. Photos taken by me (as always) in "my" park.

I prefer the English version of this proverb with "sailor" instead of "shepherd" because shepherds (except the Good One, of course) do not care about sheep just for their own sake, but for milk and meat.

I wish to dedicate to a very special and important Friend the picture below, and the other photographs I took today and posted here. I took the picture above by accident, this morning, while following the flight of a Magpie I had just photographed (see below) but I got instead this Perfect Blue. I did not resize this picture because I wanted it in its whole size and its absolute blueness. Around midday, I was strolling near the river and I took many pictures. The fresh water

When Nothing seems to happen And You're stuck on a Desert Island There is Something coming along, and You'll find it sooner than You imagine So please, no more Tears Falling down from Your Eyes: Do Your Best and don't worry If the Dawn seems to be late And the Darkness is too heavy When your Black Dog bites again I hear You crying de profundis: Through Your Voice I feel Your Pain And It's running through my Veins For I know well what It means Since I was eight, sad and helpl

Morrissey as Saint Francis. Drawing made by me, on my diary, as usual, i. d., by using a Bic pen without preparatory sketch. 4th October is Saint Francis day and also the anniversary of The Smiths first concert in 1982.
