by Louise de Vilmorin (1902 - 1969)

Amour
Language: French (Français) 
Une petite plage où l’on ne rit pas
Où personne ne passe :
C’est l’amour.

L’ombre non plus n’y chasse
De bras en bras
Un autre jour.

Pas de fausses mésanges
Mais au loin
Une petite île

Comme une meule de foin,
Et sous l’aile d’un ange
Deux anges immobiles.
