Un cadeau

Je retrouve ce que m'avait offert Nicholas Kurti, quand j'ai eu 40 ans :

I keep six honest serving-men

(they taught me all I knew);

Their names are What and Why and When

And How and Where and Who.

I send them over land and sea,

I send them east and west ;

But after they have worked for me,

I give them all a rest.

(R. Kipling)
