Automne Malade

Adored, invalid autumn, you will
die when the hurricane
blows in the rose
parks, when the snow will have come
among orchards

Poor autumn,
die in the whiteness and richness of ripe
fruit and snow
At the top of the sky hawks
glide and hover
over silly young nymphs
with short green hair
who have never loved

On the far edges of wood the stags
have belled And oh season, season, I
love your dins
Fruits falling unpicked, the wind
and the woods that weep all of their
tears in the fall, leaf by leaf
The leaves
one tramples
underfoot
A train
rolls on
The life that
runs
