"D'amour est bon, belle,"
The whisper means much
I want him to tell
I even impel
Why he speaks of such:
Beauty! a joke
Image of smoke
Words that he spoke
Just to provoke
"D'amour est bon, belle,"
C'est vrai: that is true,
But can't my "belle" dwell
In my soul as well,
Instead of with you?
"D'amour est bonne, belle,
Mais Je suis la bete."

Surprised and Delighted
Hey! Now we are talking. This is deifnatly a classic poem! (Much better than the first one I read)
I really loved it. Right up my alley. I like how you changed rhythm with, "Why he speaks of such:
Beauty! a joke
Image of smoke
Words that he spoke
Just to provoke"
And I love that you used French. I want to leanr French and I think it is a lovely language. Very original poem.
