At the stroke of twelve
Somewhere else,
Confetti flies.

The long silence
Of an angry friend,
The quickly beating heart.

Slipping into mushroom sheets,
The rainy season!

At low tide.

Let me swim with you
Lonely Brahman.

Gift of plastic santa, 
Bitter chocolate.

The sea shell 
Never looks as good.

Over holidays

Morning thunderstorm
Making home in the spider webs;
Eucalyptus leaves.

Yelling into 
Thick fog

For the alcoholic
Hurt by the truth.

Eating up my white legs.
Who spoke of sharks?

A plateful of stars,
My evening dinner
Alone with crickets.

Year after year,
The young orange tree
Which refuses to grow.

Edouard Hayem 1932 - 2010



bonjour amis d'Edouard!

Nous avons tant aime sa delicatesse.... voici un petit extrait sur youtube.


Ce jour la j'avais recu un nouveau appareil video mais comme vous allez constater je n'avais pas encore mis en main.!!
Mais quand j'ai vu Edouard dans le jardin j'ai vite pris cet appareil et le filmait.... pas terrible mais le cote "flou" n'est pas de tout ininteressant pour tous qui aimait Ed.
Ca fait justice quelquepart

je n'ai pas email adresse de Jacques et Francoise ni pour la famille Hayem.... si vous pouvez faire suivre a tous d'autres qui aime Ed.
Merci
Je vous embrasse tous
chris

With white chaulk!

After a quarrel, 
Flying out of empty room,
The words of fire.

Pair of mourning doves.
Evening lament
For old bachelor.

After days of rain,
The frog's wet song
Drowning the trees.

Gurgling gutters,
Home to green frogs
and tiny songs.

Under rainy sky
No umbrella for the bull
Or the white egret.

Between barbed wire,
Like me, the old bull
Looks for something more.

So long Mr Toad!
Your last rainy night vigil.
The bright headlights.

Twilight beach.
Finding first star,
Then the next one.
