il neige d’amour

les mots
se reposent sur mes lévres

je t’aime frappe au coeur
bise sentimentale

je préfère
trembler

futur

aigle aux ailes bleu
le ciel plane
par-dessus le monde

les enfants aiment le vol

comme un sourire
l’arc-en-ciel descend
des nuages

les premiers pas et
voilà combien de
papillons

écriture

mon arbre a des mains vertes
il accroche les insectes et
leur enseigne le pont de pierre
jusqu’aux cimes

le ciel ouvert
comme un livre de chevet
laisse les mots
s’asseoir

une femme de pluie

la femme en moi
les yeux de cendre
prend le chemin du matin
parmi les jupons de nuages
crochète quelques pluies et
jette les aiguilles
phosphorescentes

tous les gens
entendent les clochers de
ses larmes
