Author Description

Excerpt from Joies: Poèmes (1888-89) Derriere chez mon père. Un oiseau chantait, Sur un chène au bois, Autrefois Un rayon de soleil courait sur les blés lourds Un papillon ottait sur l'azur des lents jours Que la brise éventait; L'avenir s'érigeait en mirages de tours, Qu'enlaçait un euve aux rets de ses détours; C'était le château des fidèles amours L'oiseau me le contait.
