Le berre de rivière (The river Berre)
Tables and chairs
Against an ancient
Stone wall
Across from le
Café
Si vous êtes chanceux
A seat can be yours
Pageant of color
Paints the sky
As the sun disappears
West
Beneath lies
La berre
Dried up
Fish to dust
Few remaining puddles
Disappear rapidly
To be reborn with
November rains
Un verre de vin rouge
For now
A book
As I wait
Stars
Take center
Stage
A show that takes
Ma soufflé loin

Bisous,
Léa

Divine Lea! Kudos~
Merci beaucoup Cindy. I was afraid I wouldn’t get a post as my house is under major repairs. Fingers crossed for the other blog… 🙂
That sounds perfect! I love the sound of “un verre de vin rouge” for some reason, especially when it’s served with a painted sky. Enjoy!
Un verre de vin rouge is music to my ears! 🙂
No worries as I do enjoy it all here! There is much to enjoy every where I turn. 🙂

WOW! I love this piece, Lea. You just make me want to be there with you xoxo
Carly, you would always be most welcome! Red carpet and all… 🙂
I met a woman from Australia last weekend. A teacher she has been staying in Carcassonne for the past year enjoying a year off. I told her about you and your wonderful blog and she was very interested, as she should be!
I doubt you would enjoy it here right now as my house is finally being repaired from last years storm and I can barely move in here. I do hope to get out my other blog for tomorrow but it is so difficult that I may fail temporarily…
A beautiful nature poem Lea, your words are uplifting and emotive – I feel inspired after reading this piece. Love the Albert Einstein quote, he knew what he was talking about! 🙂 x
