Voici un superbe poème
d'un cher ami
Gérard Defay
Un soir de nuit brune au premier rayon de lune,
Aux étincelles d'étoiles qui s'illumineraient,
Le ciel s'assombrirait, lentement le jour déclinerait
Et nos rêves en cœur en Amour pourrait chercher fortune.
Les arbres frissonneraient aux murmures des oiseaux
Et dans l'ombre de la nuit les roseaux pourraient frémir,
L'étang s'endormirait et les mouches d'or se raviseraient,
Dansant folâtres à la surfaces des eaux.
Le vent effleurait ton visage rayonnant,
Froisse tendrement la pétale rose pâle
Du nénuphar dormirait dans la nuit qui s'étalerait,
Caressant notre esprit amoureux divaguant.
Nos pensées rimeraient en beaux vers de poésie
Aux fragrances délicieuses des fleurs blanches,
Au tendre bleu violet des jolies pervenches,
Plongeant nos cœurs dans une douce rêverie.
Merci pour ce beau poème Gérard
Frawsy
La Tigresse au coeur tendre
