by Eugène Émile Paul Grindel (1895 - 1952), as Paul Éluard

Tout disparut
Language: French (Français) 
Tout disparut même les toits même le ciel
Même l'ombre tombée des branches
Sur les cimes des mousses tendres
Même les mots et les regards bien accordés

Soeurs miroitières de mes larmes
Les étoiles brillaient autour de ma fenêtre
Et mes yeux refermant leurs ailes pour la nuit
Vivaient d'un univers sans bornes.
