by Rainer Maria Rilke (1875 - 1926)
Rose, toute ardente et pourtant claire
Language: French (Français)
Rose, toute ardente et pourtant claire, que l'on devrait nommer reliquaire de Sainte-Rose..., rose qui distribue cette troublante odeur de sainte nue. Rose plus jamais tentée, déconcertante de son interne paix ; ultime amante, si loin d'Ève, de sa première alerte -, rose qui infiniment possède la perte.
