| Notes | This poem commemorates the life and death of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, famous French writer, and author of 'The Little Prince', who was killed during World War II, after his fighter plane was shot down by a German plane. Here, the speaker of the poem laments him and his works in poetic terms, describing him as 'the poet of the sky'. |
