The torrential rain continues to make the sea rise,
My body lying on the beach stirs up the winter,
The wounds are left open;
A cold breeze envelops my inert body,
Despite the rain and the cold, my heart is in flames.

My sleep has left with you;
Waiting on the isolated shore,
I am all alone drunk with remorse;
In the moonless night,
My thoughts, lost in the dark blue sea,
I dream of your nimble form,
Floating on the tranquil water;
I wait and I watch for the waves,
I wait for you to drown in my arms

Amour,
Your name, I wrote in the sand,
The sand washed away;
Your name, I have forgotten;
Your smile haunts me still;
Your mouth too,
Small and pouting,
Sweet and sour, as a ripe Chinese shrub guava,
Red in craving;
Your eyes,
Yeah, your eyes!
Secretive, mysterious, impossible to unveil,
Bury the covert affairs that you relished,
Enclosing forever your secret!
Love of one night!
Love of a summer holiday!
As the sand slides between my fingers,
Your silhouette slips away from me,
Disappears in the skyline,
Swept away by the waves,
Leaving behind,
The silence,
which is killing me.

Le vent a l’air salin
Fait fondre les cœurs,
Corps tremblants de l’art,
Essayant de faire une paire,
Les mains et les doigts caressent,
Chantent l’amour des vagues de la mer,
Les mélodies de ton gémissement,
Le clair de lune montant sur ton corps
Fait briller des belles caresses,
Derrière un écran d’argent de la nature
Debout, on se remorque, on s’étreigne.
Aussi longtemps que la nuit est en garde
Nous faisons l’amour de la ferveur
Laissez la lune verser sa douche
Nous serons humides partout
Avec les gouttes de notre plaisir.

FOR THOSE BLOGGERS WHO HAVE SEEN THE ENGLISH MOVIE ‘LIFE OF PI’ 2013, THE CHARACTER ‘RICHARD PARKER’IS NOT UNFAMILIAR TO THEM. HE IS THE FEROCIOUS BENGAL TIGER, CAGED IN A ZOO IN INDIA AND LATER BY PROVIDENCE, HE FINDS HIS ‘FREEDOM’ AFTER A CATASTROPHIC SHIPWRECK BUT HE IS STRANDED AT SEA ON A LIFE BOAT WITH A YOUNG INDIAN BOY, PISCINE PATEL AKA ‘PI.’ TOGETHER, THEY FACE NATURE’S MAJESTIC SPLENDOUR AND FURY ON AN EPIC JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY.
THE MOVIE ‘LIFE OF PI’, THE WINNER OF 4 ACADEMY AWARDS, IS BASED ON THE NOVEL OF THE CANADIAN AUTHOR YANN MARTEL.’LIFE OF PI’. ACCORDING TO YANN MARTEL,THE STORY CAN BE SUMMARIZED IN THREE STATEMENTS-
I HAVE READ THE BOOK AND I HAVE WATCHED THE MOVIE MANY TIMES. I CONTINUE TO BE TOTALLY IMPRESSED BY THE BENGAL TIGER, RICHARD PARKER. HE MADE MANY ATTEMPTS TO DEVOUR THE YOUNG BOY, PI ,BUT THE LATTER FOUGHT HIM, FED HIM AND KEPT HIM ALIVE. IN THE END, WHEN THEY DRIFTED ON AN ISLAND, RICHARD PARKER TURNED HIS BACK ON PI AND LEFT HIM WITHOUT SAYING GOOD BYE.
From a far-flung land of whirlwinds,
Your epistle arrived unforeseen;
In a gust of airstream,
Words like barmy autumn leaves
Swirl and dance before my bemused eyes,
Glue to my locks in playful graffiti style

Loving her anonymity,
Her blueness
Her blistering salty regurgitations
Her irresistible temptations
He dances naked on her waves
Swinging his slender waist
Rolling up and down
Surfing witlessly
In the morning light
Driving her out of her wits
The glistening tropical sea
Loving his audacity
His youthful feline beauty
Swells from within
Rises in a falcate to play with him
Diving together in her deepness
Rising to heavenly heights
In cheerful togetherness.
