C'EST LA VIE!

By JohnnyD

09 February 2007

This is the poem that I had written way back in 1994 when I was learning French. I was in my second level of French course.

C’EST LA VIE!

IL Y A DE LA JOIE

AUSSI IL Y A TRISTESSE

DANS LA VIE HUMAIN

IL Y A HUMEUR

ET IL Y A FAIM

TOUT LES TEMPS IL Y A IDEES

QUI FAIS LE HUMAIN TRES-TRES EGOISTE

MAIS REELLEMENT L’ETE, C’EST LA VIE!

IL Y A AMOUR ET AFFECTION

IL Y A JALOUSIE ET FIDELITE

IL Y A AMIS ET ENNEMIS

IL Y A TOUT LES CHOSES DANS LA VIE

LE HUMAIN VOUDRAIS POSSEDER

PAS POSSIBLE! CAR C’EST LA VIE!

IL Y A INVENTION ET DECOUVERTE

IL Y A GUERRE AT PAIX

IL Y A MORT ET AMUSEMENT

IL Y A BEAUCOUP DE EXPERIENCES

LE HUMAIN AIE SUBIS POUR SOUVIVANCE

PARCEQUE C’EST LA VIE!

QUEL QUE FOIS LE HUMAIN JUSTEMENT PENSE

COMMENT DE TOUTE LA VIE

IL A AVANCES JEUIBLEMENT

POUR VIVRE LA VIE AVEC BONHEUR?

MAIS PENSEE, PENSEE IL MOURIT

A CAUSE DE DEFICIT A TEMPS

APRES TOUT, C’EST LA VIE!

An extended vocabulary for only second level French. As a poem, it isn't very special, but considering the French you probably knew when you wrote this, I must say it's a brave attempt and much better than what I tried to write in Gaelic so far

You shouldn't write it in capitals though. Now it looks as if you're shouting.
My French isn't very good, but I think that 'guerre at paix' should be 'guerre et paix'? Also I'm a bit curious about 'pensée'. Again, I don't know much about French, but couldn't that be 'pensé'?
