Jardin du Palais Royal



The fountain is at the heart of 
Jardin du Palais Royal.


I have seen it in every season and in every month,
and it is always a changing panorama.
Once, it was even frozen over with children throwing
chunks of ice!


Look for me there on Friday as I feel
the limestone crunch beneath my feet
and gaze down the alleys of trees.

    The fountain is celebrating the magic gift of the human encounter.

    Thanks God! It's good to know that you two are fine. Thanks for letting us know. I'll pray for your wellness and for the forgiveness of french families and for their lost relatives, because hate never leads to peace. I'm profoundly sorrowful, everyone dies a little after each killing. We are fragile...

    Now I see a fountain of tears... world is crying for 14N.
    For me now it is an iconic photo.

    Why all humans can't talk like these two persons in the picture? Why not...?!
    It's a shame... really hurts...
