She wove a picture of glory with her hand
Each thread showing the colors of nature
To behold its attributes twas grand
All the features making for allure
Her beauty ever so astounding to sight
Blue of sky stretching over the vast terrain
Pristine snows covering mountains of height
Red soils spanning across the open plain
So splendidly embroidered our globe
With hues of green in the vegetation
Floral shades sewn through this gorgeous robe
Truly stupendous of decoration
Our planet possesses so may fine tints
She is a wonder of such divine glints
What rhymes with Cortex
Complex, Dystrax or Consex
Simplex, Omniplex or Context
Oh my dear I KNOW IT NOW !!
Just this simple easy word CONVEX
Simple and easy
pleasy and peacy too
at your service this manuscript
no not as on the tomb of that crypt
not as eerie as in our Mother's womb
Just a small word, a simplest text, not like on that tomb
the word CONVEX as it must be
and please do not use too much your imaginations, you see
please, read me now, read this trick
please read this poetic psychic
and cover this universal convex
with your text and complicated
feelings and rational brains
please start now with the first text
as the flowery in window glass stains....

I would take the last
metro every night, if that
meant I would see you.*

Je voudrais prendre
Le dernier métro, si
Je pourrais te voir.

Je ne sais pas ce
Qu’est l’amour. Je tiens à
le trouver avec tu.

Je suis cassée. Et
je ne suis pas aussi fort,
qu’elle semble ou crois.

Toutes mes journées-
elles terminent et commencent
seulement avec tu.  

Je prendrais le pré-
mier métro, si je pouvais
rester avec tu.
My shortest poem ever
seldom comes in December
it is not a case of dumb or clever
just to inform you that I shall ever
post this kind of poetry on HP
this is not the typical me
creating so short the A, B, C

I used to write the whole alphabet
of course most poets had gone mad
one important thing is so unforgettable
as our red wines and the Jameson's are so delectable

one subtle subject superior
is ruling our life like a creepy inferior
but this subtlety that we will derive
all our life a constant strife

will nourish the mind with wealth
world's  most important subject: watch our health !!
