Chers amis,
Voici ce que je fais definitivement afin que cela puisse passer sans contestation.
Je prends dans mes cahiers de toute ma vie tout ce qui n’a rapport absolument à rien qu’au monde physique – la nature sans nous –
Voici l’idée du recueil ou [sic] il y aura sans date des vers vieux et nouveaux

                  ---

Nul souffle humain n’eut sur les pages
Rien que celui des elements
Le cyclone hurlant sur les pelages
Les legendes des oceans
Les sapins verts sous les nuées
Tordant leurs branches remuees
Comme des harpes dans les vents
Sous les coraux ou sous les sables
La nature parfois levant
Dans ses tourments formidables
Un cercueil ville ou continent
Et l’etre ayant la bouche close
Feuille de chene ou bien de rose
Tombant au gré de l’ouragan
