by Paul Jean Toulet (1867 - 1920)

Le temps d'Adonis
Language: French (Français) 
Dans la saison qu'Adonis fut blessé,
Mon caeur aussi de l'atteinte soudaine
D'un regard lancé.

Hors de l'abyme où le temps nous entraîne,
T'évoquerai-je, ô belle, en vain - ô vaines
Ombres, souvenirs.

Ah ! dans mes bras qui pleurais demi-nue,
Certe serais encore, à revenir,
Ah ! la bienvenue.
