Printemps

spring day

 

The day was lovely.

It was one of those spring days

where Mai spends herself entirely.

The first butterflies landed on the first roses.

 

Everything was new, in nature,

herbs, mosses, leaves, perfumes, rays.

The pebbles were freshly washed.

The deep song of the trees was sung by the birds born yesterday.

It is likely that their egg shell broken by their little beak

was still in the nest.

Wings rustled in the trembling branches. They were singing their first song,

they were flying their first flight.

downpour

A tree trembles in the wind.

The shutters slam.

As it rained, the water made puddles.

Leaves fly in the wind

who scatters them

And suddenly it's pouring rain.

Spring

 

There are a few puddles on the beach

There are trees in the woods crazy for birds

The snow is melting in the mountain

The branches of the apple trees shine with so many flowers

Let the pale sun recede

 

It's a winter evening in a very harsh world

That I live this spring near you the innocent

There is no night for us

Nothing that perishes has hold on you

And you don't wanna be cold

 

Our spring is a spring that is right.

 

Paul ELUARD

(in The Phoenix)

In spring

Look at the branches,

How white they are!

It's snowing flowers...

Laughing in the rain,

The sun wipes

The weeping willows,

And the sky reflects,

in the violet,

Its pure colors...

The fly opens the wing

And the lady

With golden pupils,

In the wasp corset,

Unfolding her pancake,

Resumed the boom.

The water chatters gaily,

The stud wiggles...

Another spring!

          Théophile Gautier

The ant

 

An eighteen meter ant

With a hat on your head

It does not exist, it does not exist

 

An ant dragging a chariot

Lots of penguins and ducks

It does not exist, it does not exist

 

A French speaking ant

Latin and Javanese speaking

It does not exist, it does not exist

 

And why not ?

 

Robert Desnos

Le printemps rit

Pluie ! Pluie ! Pluie !

Perles fines

D'opaline

Pluie ! Pluie ! Pluie !

Petite pluie

Qui n'en finit

 

Une éclaircie ?

Le printemps rit

Aux larmes, oh oui !

Marie Litra

Spring

It's the spring festival,

Bad weather, go away!

March,

No prank!

the snow is over,

More ice cream!

month of April,

Be nice,

Make the sun shine!

May,

Please,

Let the good weather come!

It's the spring festival,

Bad weather, go away!

The ant

 

An eighteen meter ant

With a hat on your head

It does not exist, it does not exist

 

An ant dragging a chariot

Lots of penguins and ducks

It does not exist, it does not exist

 

A French speaking ant

Latin and Javanese speaking

It does not exist, it does not exist

 

And why not ?

Araignée d'avril

L'araignée d'avril

Qui a tissé fil

En étoile dessine

La fleur de printemps

L'araignée d'avril

Son joyau d'argent

En fera cadeau

Au soleil nouveau

Et brille brillera

Demain, une étoile

Au jardin, cachée

Chut !

C'est un secret !

Marie Litra

In my garden I met,

What ? Guess, guess...

A little ladybug

who took his sunbath

On a sorrel leaf...

What an idea, what an idea...

In my garden I met,

What ? Guess, guess...

A tiny bee

Who made us honey

By buzzing with the four wings.

Good idea, good idea...

                         The pendulum strikes

Goutte d'eau

Je suis goutte goutte d'eau

Je suis née dans un nuage

J'ai le plus joli berceau

Avec je pars en voyage

Je suis goutte goutte d'eau

J'ai parfois un gros chagrin

Je pleurniche dès matin

Et puis j'éclate en sanglots

          Ce n'est pas malin

          Mais ça fait du bien

Poisson d'avril

Poisson d'avril

Poisson d'argent

Au bout du fil

Etincelant

Poisson d'avril

Tu es parti

Poisson fragile

En confetti
