quatre à suivre
For to follow nouvelle forme, not sounding hollow a novice first must have a thought to kick around that has a value in and of itself, though it may ne’er astound an unsuspecting reader with its worth; it needn’t be profound, Writer plays with meanings, sounds… through cold and fever ‘til it’s done… and swears to leave ‘er quatre à suivre © MLee Dickens’son 05 Jan 2005 ·······  ·······Slow down; things will go faster!

QUOTE(Cyn @ Jan. 06 2006, 01:01) Well sir Daniel, fancy meeting me here, eh? I liked this poem when I read it on PV but I have to profess my ignorance (of French) despite growing up in Canada until 5th grade. Will you tell me what it means? Then I might be able to comment Your pal in light, Cyn Hey, Cyn! The phrase simply is an echo of the first line "for to follow," except it is "four to follow"... a promise that this ain't my last quatre-par-huit!  deLighting to share, Daniel
