Oh la neige!
Regarde la neige qui tombe...Cimetière enchanté fait de légères tombesElle tombe la neige,
silencieusementDe toute sa blancheur d'un noir éblouissantLa neige...Les yeux les mieux ouverts sont encore des paupièresEt Dieu pour le prouver fait pleuvoir sa lumièreSa lumière glacée,
ardente cependantCœur de braise tendu dans une main d'argentLa neige...Elle vient de si haut,
la chaste damoiselleQue sa forme voilée d'étoiles se constelleElle vient de si haut,
cette sœur des sapinsCette bombe lactée que lancent les gaminsElle vient de si haut,
la liquide étincelleAu sommet de la terre elle brille éternelleBrandissant son flambeau sur le pic et le rocComme la liberté dans le port de New YorkLa neige...Meneuse de revue aux Folies-StalingradDescendant l'escalier des degrés centigradesEmpanachée de plumes,
négresse en négatifElle dansait un ballet angélique,
explosifPour le soldat givré,
agrippé à son armeOeuf de sang congelé dans un cristal de larmesElle danse la neige dans la nuit de NoëlAutour d'un tank brûlé qu'elle a pris pour chapelleLa neigeTout de suite moisson,
tout de suite hécatombeOh la neige!
Regarde la neige qui tombe...
