Autumn Flower

Yellow flower, grieving flower, pale flower, You were burnt by the sun and the hot rain. Ripe flower, matured flower, immaculate flower, You've nevertheless kept your phenomenal beauty sane. The half-yellow and the half-green leaves Are trying to mimic your beautiful color. Mother Nature and Fauna are profusely in tears, And Squirrel and Nightingale in a state of horror. Flower of one of the most somber and romantic seasons, Your exceptional beauty merits great admirations And your sweet and delicious sap is beyond words. Flower, I'm coming tonight to rest on your turfs, To contemplate the stars and the sparks, The abandoned branches and the rods floating in the parks.

French version Fleur d'Automne Fleur jaune, fleur triste, fleur pâle; Le soleil t'a brûlée et la pluie t'a échaudée; Fleur mûre, fleur maturée, fleur immaculée; Malgré tout, tu as gardé ta beauté phénoménale. Les feuilles à moitié jaunes et à moitié vertes Essaient de porter tes belles couleurs. La nature et la faune sont inconsolables et en pleurs, Les écureuils et les rossignols sont en état d'alerte. Fleur d'une de la plus sombre et romantique saison, Laisse-moi admirer ta beauté exceptionnelle Et savourer encore ta douce et délicieuse salive. Fleur, je viendrai, ce soir, m'étendre sur ton gazon. Viens admirer les étoiles, les étincelles, Les branches et les tiges abandonnées dans la rive. Copyright © March 2008, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved.
