The night-sky ennobled of fat fires
of bright bounces and indigo cabbages
knighting the youth in the envious glances
with reflection of the orgies and circular roofs,

Surprising happiness wanted by the lights
the accommodating birds invents stars,
independent as darkness of flesh
crossing of thunderstorms the gibes and the veils,

The silence is stubborn and throws its nets
on the bridges of the Loire to drawn a crowd of barges
rockets slap the sky coated with secrets
and fall again on the thirsty lawns,

invisible wolves rush on us
sometimes yellow or blue, sometimes red or green,
the pack takes the city in its fangs
and eats away at the pain of a happiness without echo.

What a unique rendering of your National Day, dear Yann! You reach well beyond the festive surface!

Impressive.
