Rene Chabriere Poet Free verse

Sing Me a Song

Sing me a song,
a song to keep us away from the cold;
The cold that falls like a screed,
And even took the breath,
In a white mist.

A song that we'll sing together,
Words that are woven,
All along the verses,
Respond  and embrace them,
And our tears  fade away ...

A melody of the past,
As voice resurrected,
Silence of the exit ...
Extracts it from the cold ;
A bridge over the time.

Chante-moi une chanson....
Une  chanson pour  nous  garder loin du froid,
Le froid qui tombe  comme une  chape,
Et saisit même le souffle,
Dans une  nuée blanche...

Une chanson que  nous chanterions  ensemble.
Des mots  qui se tissent, 
Au cours des couplets,
Se répondent  et s'enlacent,
Et que nos larmes  s'effacent ...

Une mélodie du passé,
Que la voix fait renaître,
Sortie  du silence ...
Elle  s'extrait du froid ,
C'est un pont par-dessus le temps .
