by Jules Renard (1864 - 1910)

La Tempête
Language: French (Français) 
La tempête, les arbres tourbillonnent,  
Les bras en l’air, comme des soldats frappés au cœur 
La tempête, les maisons  s’accroupissent, tremblant 
Comme des navires  à l’ancre 
La tempête, les girouettes ne savent plus où tourner 
La tempête, les poires tombent 
Et les pommes de terre se découvrent 
Les peupliers, les feuilles du même côté 
Ramènent leurs cheveux sur leurs tempes 
La tempête…
