Poème Français

Well... I saw C'est moi as a title of a poem, which means It's me. So I got this idea of a french poem.
You don't have to be french, speak french or anything like that.

You have three options:

1) Be inspired by the photo.

2) Write about anything with french in it. Like:

French Fries
French Toast
French Kiss
French Horn
French Vanilla
French Braid...

And have it insipre you. I think you get the idea. As long as it has the word Frnech in it.

& 3) If you can write in French here's your chance.
I want a poem in French. How ever you know the language show it off. Just include a translation some where with the poem.

P.S I do speak little French. I am in my third year of classes. I am not great as I can hardly speak and pronounce my first language, English. I think I'll stick to reading.

Rules~
*Standard rules apply
*Put which option in AN
*If you do option 2) also put which word gave you inspiration
*Have fun

The more entries I get, the more points.

Question? Ask me.

I think that's all...

Much Love

    "C'est Moi"... my poem? (if it was, then cool ... if not, then I shall look up other titles of the same)

    I might have to whip something up for this. I love writing in French.. even if I make sno sense.
