Adored, invalid autumn, you will die when the hurricane blows in the rose parks, when the snow will have come among orchards Poor autumn, die in the whiteness and richness of ripe fruit and snow At the top of the sky hawks glide and hover over silly young nymphs with short green hair who have never loved On the far edges of wood the stags have belled And oh season, season, I love your dins Fruits falling unpicked, the wind and the woods that weep all of their tears in the fall, leaf by leaf The leaves one tramples underfoot A train rolls on The life that runs out | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...COMPANY COMMANDER by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE DUSK; TO MADEMOISELLE MARIE LAURENCIN by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE FAREWELL by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE HILLS by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE HUNTING HORNS by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE MARIZIBILL by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE MEADOW-SAFFRON by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE RHENISH AUTUMN; TO TOUSSAINT LUCA by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE SALOME by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE |
