Analysis of Les Visions roses

Maurice Rollinat 1846 (Châteauroux) – 1903 (Ivry-sur-Seine)



Corolles et boutons de roses,
La fraise et la mousse des bois
Mettent le désir aux abois
Au fond des cœurs les plus moroses !

Qui rappelle certaines choses
Aux bons vieux galants d’autrefois ?
Corolles et boutons de roses,
La fraise et la mousse des bois.

— Je revois tes chairs toutes roses,
Les dards aigus de tes seins froids,
Et puis tes lèvres ! quand je vois
Dans leurs si langoureuses poses
Corolles et boutons de roses !
