Waves – It’s Raining

Poem by Guillaume Apollinaire Collection CalligrammesPeriod 20th century

It’s raining women’s voices as if they had died even in memory

it’s you too that rains wonderful encounters of my life o droplets

and these rearing clouds begin to neigh a whole universe of auricular cities

listen if it rains while regret and disdain weep an ancient music

listen to the bonds falling that hold you high and low

Guillaume Apollinaire
