(Micro) poésie du vendredi…

Dans la pénombre, Le souvenir de ta silhouette dans le mirroir. Oui, j’ai pleuré, J’ai eu peur que tu me laisses avec mon désespoir. Je ne sais pas, Comment entretenir le feu sans finir par l’éteindre. Je jette de l’essence, Et au centre de l’explosion, je ne sais plus qui craindre… Tends-moi la main, Laisse-moi…… Continue reading (Micro) poésie du vendredi…

Delicious speed dating…

A cozy room, draped with red velvet panes, from ceiling to floor… A dozen two places tables, and as many men and women, sitting in the darkness, the flame of a candle making the shadows dance between each temporary couple. *Bell ringing* The twelve women got up in an elegant ballet, some leaving the table…… Continue reading Delicious speed dating…

Feed me…

  Freja loves food. In French we’d say gourmande. I don’t know any equivalent in English. She loves to eat, and she’ll eat about anything. Sissy, our late princess, wasn’t gourmande at all. She ate just what she needed, and we could leave her a bowl full of dry cat food, without fearing the least bit…… Continue reading Feed me…

Yesterday, the weather was beautiful, chéri was at work and I thought I’d go for a walk downtown and bring you along. I had to go pick up my Montréal World Film Festival passport, so I packed up my bag and left home without looking back. This is a must if you want to get…… Continue reading If you came to Montréal… (3)

Cyranny’s Jukebox…

  I was in the subway this afternoon (the underground train, not the sandwich, just so we’re clear) and I was listening to my IPod (sooooo 2010, now everybody uses their cellphones, just not me! Stop judging!). I had an idea… I decided to start a series of posts to introduce you to music from…… Continue reading Cyranny’s Jukebox…

Colorier la Guinée…

  This one I have to write in French, because Guinea is a French speaking country, and its visit in the Cove deserves to be mentioned…     Chère Guinée, Hier, j’ai vu ton drapeau flotter dans mes statistiques. Tu ne t’es pas arrêtée longtemps, mais ton passage m’a fait chaud au coeur! Guinée, tu…… Continue reading Colorier la Guinée…

Nombril de semaine…

  Good Wednesday to all of you readers! Last week, I skipped my mid-week rendez-vous for personal reasons, but I am back. And Nombril de semaine it will be indeed, because I decided to do things differently today. In French, we have several sayings involving navels. Nombril du monde, literally “world’s navel”, meaning that you think highly…… Continue reading Nombril de semaine…
