by Ioannes Papadiamantopoulos (1856 - 1910), as Jean Moréas

En cet après‑midi si lourd — toujours...
Language: French (Français) 
En cet après-midi si lourd — toujours j’y pense ! —
  De mon affreux pressentiment,
Lorsque je t’ai revue après vingt ans d’absence,
  Mer, honneur de ton élément,

J’ai tressé de mes mains, d’amarante azurée
  Et de pavots, un chapelet,
Pour le jeter avec mon âme déchirée
  Dans ton onde qui me parlait.
