I rather like the version which doesn't use the letter 'e'. Very clever.
This would be such a good set of poems to use in a higher level French class - all those synonyms to enrich the vocabulary.
Am I right in thinking that 'ouïr' (if that is the infinitive form) is a more archaic word? I'm amused to note that it's one of those bits of French I encountered first in a medieval history/norman english context - Courts of Oyez and Terminez.
