by Jacques Prevert

DIMANCHE Entre les rangées d'arbres de l'avenue des Gobelins Une statue de marbre me conduit par la main Aujourd'hui c'est dimanche les cinémas sont pleins Les oiseaux dans les branches regardent les humains Et la statue m'embrasse mais personne ne nous voit Sauf un enfant aveugle qui nous montre du doigt. Jacques Prévert Poèmes, chansons, souvenirs, feuilletons. Jacques Prévert raconte Paris à sa manière. Chacun de ses textes est né d'une rencontre avec un lieu, un être aimé, un regard, une silhouette, une image, une odeur, une couleur. « Jacques, tu ne sais pas peindre, mais tu es peintre », lui a écrit un jour Pablo Picasso. Jacques Prévert est le peintre de Paris. Comme Vincent Van Gogh, « Il a le regard bleu et doux / Le vrai regard lucide et fou / De ceux qui donnent tout à la vie / De ceux qui ne sont pas jaloux. »
