En arrière plan
In the background
Mogette's friend CoCo
Who's full name
That is to say
En entier
Is
CoCo, La Belle Rouge...
CoCo was sad today
In thirty-three degrès
...de découvrir
Après la sieste
Devant la porte de la cuisine...
One of the most beautiful birds
Un des plus beaux
... des oiseaux

Pauvre
...Oiseau
Pauvre
...Loriot
Who imagined la réflexion was...
Réalité. Zut, alors
Bright banana yellow
Poor fellow...
(Oh no, it's a femelle, not a fellow)
En anglais Loriot
Is
Golden Oriole
And this year
Cette année twenty-twenty
Monsieur Loriot

All day long, between branches green, a flash of gold
Et Madame répondit...
From day after arrival of coucou
And all around
Pendant le Confinement "Lockdown..."
CoCo hopes
-Elle espère-
That our amie éphémère
Has left derrière elle...
As well
... as the echo
In the poplar peuplier trees
Some bébés loriots...
As mauvais poète would propose:
Who knows?
Now clic on les pics, les ami.e.s, for some...
Surprises...
tres non jolie mon frere ... xxx
ReplyDeleteon entend souvent le loriot chanter but one rarely can see him...
ReplyDeleteSo, to see un loriot devant sa porte, dead, it's rare but so triste, really!
I love its english name...
