The Great Terrace At Versailles Poem by Donatien Moisdon

The Great Terrace At Versailles



Brown and green, skinny stalks,
poplars, infinity...
Far away and fragile,
shimmering, hazy light.

Looks that will ricochet
on sleek mercury ponds
and to the Grand Canal.

Golden Autumn rumbling,
golden roars of Autumn.

My hands on a sculpture
and drunk with perfection
I am, for an instant,
the hub of creation.
