Les Seins aux Fleurs Rouges
Gauguin Island Women
They are the daughters of the morning of the world
Hidden for centuries behind the walls of the sea.
They are part of the jungle as fruits are or flowers
And their breasts are like blossoms.
Their forms are luminous as though they had stored up the sunshine
And all their motions are large and tranquil.
