Making progress

Straw

Joël Chevallier, what is in a name, unloads the straw we will need to make the burning intens.

Le petit cheval blanc

Yasmine came with this poem of George Brassins:

The little white horse

A little horse in bad weather
How brave he was
It was a little white horse
We all behind and he in front

Weather never was nice
In this poor landscape
Never we had springtime
Not behind and not in front

But he was always glad
Driving the village boys
Through the dark rain among the fields
We all behind and he in front

We in the car followed
His nice little wild tail
How glad he was then
We all behind en he in front

But one day in bad weather
A day he was so brave
He was hit by a white flash of lightning
We all behind and he in front

He died without seeing nice weather
How brave he was
He died without seeing spring
Not behind and not in front

The beginning

It starts off with two piles of wood. Junk wood at the party venue. Still a bit of useful wood in front of the house in le Maupas. There I will build a horse with my friends. Later it will be taken up the mountain to be burned.
