À l’heure du tout à l’image et du buzz sans suite, «l’express» souhaite faire découvrir la plume de poètes, de chanteurs, d’écrivains et de tous ceux qui jettent leur âme sur le papier, et qui mettent en mots des réflexions profondes.

This world that I call mine

The same one we all call ours

Is a most beautiful place;

Self sustaining, it allows us

To grow our own food, to share it

With others, to receive water

From its skies,

To build upon it from scratch,

To create worlds of our own

Within its midst

To love and to appreciate at will

Why,

This world, self sustaining,

Birthed us as its gemstones,

The most rare and precious ones

In the universe

Capable of igniting fires

And extinguishing these as we wish to

Yet,

This world, today

Holds her head down

With a grim look on its face

As we have made of it today

A world which cannot be without war,

A world which cannot be without hatred,

Without we claiming to belong

To certain groups which we call ours

Yet which has in them

The same blood, the same organs,

All needing the same air!
