La Cape. Poem by Michael Walker

La Cape.

Tu gardes ta feuille-rose
Jusqu'a la fin du temps des roses,
Penses-tu que la Mort te baisera?
Penses-tu que la Maison Sombre
Te trouvera un tel amant
Que moi? Les nouvelles roses te manqueront-elles?

Prefere ma cape au manteau de poussiere
Sous lequel se couche l'annee derniere,
Car tu devrais te mefier plus
Le Temps que mes yeux.

-'The Cloak.' Ezra Pound.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
An old-fashioned but convincing love poem to me. It reminds me slightly of Proust's novel' A La Recherche Du Temps Perdu'.
