La Neige En Septembre. (Translation) .

Rating: ★5.0

Quelqu'un dont je n'ai pas encore fait le connaissance
joue du violin a la neige
dans un champ tout pres
et le son ressemble a Beethoven
crois-je, et sous les saules
pres du ruisseau
un jeune garcon pleure.
Lorsque la musique cesse
le garcon disparaitra
comme il le fait chaque fois,

chaque fois.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This a fantasy poem; someone playing a violin in the snow and sounding like Beethoven The music makes a boy weep by a stream, under the willow trees. When the music stops, the boy disappears every time. He repeats 'every time' at the end, which sounds very good, like everyday speech.
Brian Turner is a fan of classical music, which shows in his poetry.
