L'enfant poête


Cet enfant couvait dans sa tête
Un poète un grand érudit
Il faisait des vers en cachette
Un beau jour il n'a plus écrit

Ses parent l'église et le maître
Peu à peu lui ont tout appris
Presque tout sauf à se connaître
A trouver son bonheur en lui

A vouloir baliser sa route
Il découvre de moins en moins
Les chemins qui s'ouvraient sans doute
Dans le creux de ses propres mains

Cet enfant grandira quand même
Et vivra peur-être très vieux
Mais sans découvrir le poème
Qui manquait pour qu'il soit heureux

Cet artiste de la tendresse
Composait des chansons si vraies
Que les gens fredonnaient sans cesse
Puis un jour ils n'ont plus chanté

A l'écran pour que les gens l'aiment
Il avait aussi maquillé
Son talent son côté bohême
Son amour et sa liberté

A vouloir faire entrer son rêve
Par un tube dans la télé
Il en avait perdu la sève
Et rompu le charme secret

Le chanteur bien longtemps encore
Chantera sans savoir pourquoi
Le public applaudit moins fort
Ses jolies chansons d'autrefois

Chacun de nous dans son domaine
Participe selon son cœur
A la grande aventure humaine
Par sa quête vers le bonheur

C'est l'idéal de notre enfance
Qui nous porte à rêver plus haut
A cultiver nos différences
Pour bâtir un monde plus beau

Mais si l'on tord et qu'on écrase
Dans des cases et sur des tableaux
Tous ceux qui gênent ou qui dépassent
Pour qu'ils rentrent dans le troupeau

Suffira-t-il pour être un homme
D'accepter que notre destin
Consiste à rentrer dans la norme
A rester sur le droit chemin?...

Le murmure de l'imaginaire
Recèle aussi notre avenir
Mais si on l'oblige à se taire
Que la source vienne à tarir

On verra germer la colère
Et tous les espoirs dépérir
Des bourgeons que tous ces hivers
Auront préparés à fleurir

La liberté mûrit sans cesse
Dans les âmes et dans les esprits
Il faut des siècles de tendresse
Pour en cueillir un jour le fruit

Mais si l'enfant devient Poète
Il nous offre déjà celui
Que dans son cœur et dans sa tête
Pour toujours il aura cueilli.
