by René Kerdyk (1885 - 1945)

Théo
Language: French (Français) 
Voyant une femme aux yeux gris, 
S’approchant d’elle, Théo rit.

Il suit la dame à l’instant même
Puis, ayant aimé, Théo raime.

Ayant aimé trois fois encor,
Un peu fatigué, Théo dort.

Mais oyez la fin de l’idylle ; 
Sans remercier, Théo file !
