Cockenpot Francine was born in 1918 and died in Lille, his hometown, at the age of 82 years September 18, 2001. Guide to France in 1933, totemisée Raven One, it was soon noticed for his artistic talents and anchor and began composing at this time. During the war she lived in Lille on "Guiding cellars," then left as a nurse in North Africa. She wrote, in 50 years, the words and music of over 800 songs very widely distributed in scouting and youth movements of 1945 to today, where the price of success, they are often considered "folk". This is particularly she who wrote (probably in 1943) the music of the famous Colchiques in the meadows, a tube which, from 1945 to 1970, far exceeded the mid Scout summer camps and who had made a tube. This song was taken in 1977 by Francis Cabrel. It is the quality of his poetry, far from simple tunes, which gave them such a large audience. Victim of a burglar who had beaten and left for dead, she had lost an eye. She has published, after this painful ordeal, a testimony restrained and great courage, based on hope and forgiveness beyond despair. Besides his poems, is the author of several books by Seuil and other publishers.
