We are extraordinary when we are in love,
the time changes the landscapes and we learn the clarinet,
the moon tells our loves the eyes which want to eat her,
we are extraordinary when we are in love.

Sometimes, even birds make nests in our hair,
we are extraordinary when we are in love,
we learn to laugh in the big houses,
and we cry by peeling the apples of gardens.

Then we write poems to amaze the butterflies,
we speak to the feet of the young ladies to make them dance,
sure of us, we unsettle the clocks they have in their heart,
we are extraordinary when we are in love.

Dear Yann, this is an exquisite, beautifully creative write. And the above affirmation will stick to me forever I guess, it's sooooooo lovely!
