L'aura del Campo

The dying leaf [158]

The dying leaf

blinded by the light
of a world multi-colored, a time to rejoice

          the hanging on
          the letting go
          now free to fly
          at last to know
          the final soar

and the chanteuse warbling of my flight
in her wavering voice

(to be worked on: "La feuille mourante" -aveuglé par la vue-du monde en couleur, un temps pour se réjouir-l'accrocher-le lâcher prise-libre de voler-enfin savoir-la montée en flèche finale-et la chanteuse gazouillant de mon vol-dans sa voix vacillante 177.158F)
