sylvestre et la lune




Sylvestre, le grand et mistérieux chat,
Passait celle nuit-là sur un joli toit.
La Lune lui a cru un roi ou pacha.
«Que veux-tu?» dit-elle. «Demande-le-moi.»
«Je voudrais cinq chattes et faire mes achats!»
Répondit Sylvestre en esprit de joie.
«Donc te donnerai or, argent et foi»
Scintilla la Lune, et après marcha.
