Obra poética escrita en prosa. El contenido tiene una forma armónica, que surge de su inagotable y profunda poesía, de los sentimientos, del amor a la vida, a la naturaleza y al hombre. Saint-Exupéry escribe este canto de amor y ternura sin igual dirigido a los adultos, aunque posiblemente sean los niños los que puedan entender su bellísimo mensaje.
A poetic play written in prose with a harmoniously shaped content; it comes from the author's endless and Jeep poetry, his feelíngs, and his love to life, nature and men. Saint-Exupéry writes his incomparable song of love and tenderness addressed to adults, although children are possibly the ones who understand his beautiful message better.
