Just Because It's Wednesday




j'avoue j'en ai bave pas vous mon amour
Avant d'avoir eu vent de vous mon amour
Ne vous deplaise en dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions, le temps d'une chanson

A votre avis qu'avons - nous vu de l'amour?
De vous a mon vous m'avez eu mon amour
Ne vous deplaise, en dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions, le temps d'une chanson

Helas, avril en vain me voue a l'amour.
J'avais envie de voir en vous cet amour
Ne vous deplaise, en dansant la javanaise
Nous nous aimions, le temps d'une chanson

La vie ne vaut d'etre vecue sans amour
Mais c'est vous qui l'avez voulu mon amour
Ne vous deplaise en dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions, le temps d'une chanson



 Poetry Jam: Three Word Wednesday: Dverse

The chanteuse is Alizee and the guitarist just in case you noticed him ladies is Jean Felix Lalanne.

Jean Felix Lalanne
{sigh}
A talent to behold
His fingertips produce  sizzling heat
Tis summer all year round
Listening  to this French man

Watching him is taking a ride
on the back of Icarus
Scorched by the sun
But who's complaining!

I would traverse the globe
for this man
Be assigned as his personal slave
assistant,poet, page turner,whatever
Pretense?

Je crois que non!

(I think not)

      It's a love song. Keep the eyes riveted on Jean Felix and you don't need the words!:)

    I see what you mean about the guitarist. I wasn't watching his fingers though. I found myself watching him make beautiful music with his eyes! I enjoyed the selection. There is nothing like a French love song to inspire a little 'heat.' (Words are inconsequential...LOL.)

    I enjoyed this. Lovely! Good way to keep heat going all year round. It is wonderful to think about you posting from the other side of the world. I love that about the cyberworld of poetry.

    The guitarist is very talented ~ I wish I can understand the lyrics the girl is singing ~ In the meantime, I am melting into the music ~

    Got to admit it, this guy's got it ladies. Rather dangerous, I'd say. The woman is right 'there' too - and so .....

    (Oh to be 40 years younger, unmarried, guitar in hand!)

    Eh bien ma foi, c'était pas mal du tout! But she doesn't swing her arms (or elbows) at all! ;-)
    Smooth guitar work (and I imagine smooth in other ways too)!
