Guillaume Apollinaire White Poems
- 1. One Evening
An eagle descends from this sky white with archangels
And you sustain me
Let them tremble a long while all these lamps
Pray pray for me
... - 2. The White Snow
The angels the angels in the sky
Oneâ??s dressed as an officer
Oneâ??s dressed as a chef today
And the others sing
... - 3. Zone
At last you're tired of this elderly world
Shepherdess O Eiffel Tower this morning the bridges are bleating
... - 4. Twilight
Brushed by the shadows of the dead
On the grass where day expires
Columbine strips bare admires
her body in the pond instead
... - 5. Palace
In deepest dream towards Rosemonde's palace
My barefoot brain inclined for the evening
Like a naked king the walls are waking
Beaten flesh and fresh-cut roses
...
