Rosées

Rene Francois Armand Prudhomme 1839 (Paris) – 1907 (Châtenay-Malabry)



Je rêve, et la pâle rosée
Dans les plaines perle sans bruit,
Sur le duvet des fleurs posée
Par la main fraîche de la nuit.

D'où viennent ces tremblantes gouttes ?
Il ne pleut pas, le temps est clair ;
C'est qu'avant de se former, toutes,
Elles étaient déjà dans l'air.

D'où viennent mes pleurs ? Toute flamme,
Ce soir, est douce au fond des cieux ;
C'est que je les avais dans l'âme
Avant de les sentir aux yeux.

On a dans l'âme une tendresse
tremblent toutes les douleurs,
Et c'est parfois une caresse
Qui trouble, et fait germer les pleurs
