Description

The flower photo: It is an Hellebore, shot in a Spring morning in Québec city, and covered with water drops left on petals after rain. It is known for the roots being used in the cure of madness. I guess the flower itself, with its beauty, actually induces a foolish poisonous and passionate feeling. . . the "Fol Amour." An love can drive one to lose his or her reason, and cause deep sorrow.
The lyrics: The song, called "Douleur" (sorrow), has been written by a renowned prolific Quebecer poet, Félix Leclerc, a writer-composer-interpreter of numerous great songs in Québec French, who was singing alone on stage with his guitar.
The lyrics says (free translation):
You say: "I love the fools
'Cause they love flowers. . ."
Put in your two bare hands
My reason and my heart.

This song just moves me every time I hear it!
