Superbe ! et en plus un poème que je ne connaissais pas!
Merci du joli cadeau.
P.S je pense que l'on dit UNE vidéo .
Oui, je m'en suis rendu compte après l'avoir enregistrée... j'ai même dit "une vidéo" dans mes vidéos précédentes... mais je ne voulais pas tout refaire. En plus, j'ai dit "au bord" au lieu de "au bout" vers la fin!
Excellent French accent.
