TERRARIUM
5 earthworms, fellows in women and adventures
2 larvae of Cetonia, to cradle them into a flower
2 snails, one for me, one for you, my love
1 slug," a l' enterrement d' une feuille morte (*)
deux escargot s'en vont..."
1 centipede, running to you, with beating heart .
*** **** ***
(*) * Da " Chanson des escargot qui vont à l'enterrement "
by Jacques Prevert
P.S.
A teacher , Loreley, (and I loved her, alas! ) gave me the idea for this little poem: it was just a list to make a terrarium for school kids, but it was so romantic...( for me, it's obvious).
There's nothing really romantic in a slug!
Una maestra, Loreley, ( quanto l' ho amata, ahimè) mi ha dato l' idea per questa poesiola: era solo una lista per la creazione di un terrario per i suoi alunni, ma era così romantica... ( solo per me, ovvio).
Non c' è niente di veramente romantico in un lumacone!
