written by my love Arthur Rimbaud at 15...it's not even the best translation....
On a blue summer evening I shall go
down the path
And, brushed by wheat, walk on the
fine grass.
Dreaming along, I’ll feel the coolness
under my feet
And bathe my bare head in the poetic
wind.
I won’t speak, I will not even think,
But infinite love will geyser up in my
soul,
And I’ll go far, far away, like a Gypsy
Into the wilds — as happy as if I were
with a woman.
down the path
And, brushed by wheat, walk on the

Dreaming along, I’ll feel the coolness

And bathe my bare head in the poetic

I won’t speak, I will not even think,
But infinite love will geyser up in my
soul,
And I’ll go far, far away, like a Gypsy
Into the wilds — as happy as if I were
with a woman.
