La Gazelle, a place for poetry, loves the Printemps des poètes 2026 event in the Cantal region
La Gazelle has been a source of inspiration for story writers and fables such as Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695) and poets such as Maurice Carême (1899-1978). Will you be inspired by this site, whose calm and tranquillity are ideal for reading and writing poetry?
La Gazelle presents the national operation « Printemps des poètes in Cantal »From 14 March to 31 March 2026, this year's theme will be "Freedom. Force vive, déployée".
It's a theme that speaks to us and one that you can explore and discover not far from our huts, in nearby bookshops, museums, libraries and media libraries.
La Gazelle
Born of a floating dream
- For God knows how long! -
It is made of gauze
And long reflections of wings,
The little gazelle.
If the lioness terraces it,
She leaves the clearing
His glistening body.
Light income
Like a floating dream
- For God knows how long! - She's back in the light
With a dazzling leap.
(Maurice Carême)
