PAYSAGE - LANDSCAPE

COLORIAGE MONDAIN




Pour toile de fond, un marron de complaisance

Lointain souvenir de notre Terre en abondance

Ensuite d'épaisses rivières rouge vermillon

Charriant les vies de tous les peuples moribonds

Quelques zestes de jaune comme flux migrateurs

 Les diverses nuances du bleu en guise de profondeur

Puis des flottilles de noir pour  mettre en valeur le blanc

Les 2 ou 3 touches vert tendre de notre écologique élan

Enfin, le sceau gris anthracite de l'Homme tendance

Avec lequel il perce la couche d'ozone à sa convenance







MY TRADUCTION




WORLDLY COLOURING


For background, a complacency brown 

  Distant memory of our Earth in abundance
 
Just after thick red vermilion rivers
 
Transporting the lives of all moribund peoples

Some zests of yellow like migratory flows

  The various shades of blue by way of a depth

  Then flotillas of black for highlighting the white 

2 or 3 tender green touches for our ecological run-up

Finally, anthracite gray seal of the tendency Human

With which he pierces the ozone layer at his discretion

  1. I loved it! I translated it myself and I can tell you have been proofing your own work for English and you are doing a great job! I could tell the difference and it helps! Good for you! Did you notice how much better translation is on g+? Makes it a little easier!
