天边那座花园
人在旅途 | 2022-05-01
这几天在听林志炫的给你一些不给一些。“你时常看见 自己的微笑 挂在另一个人的嘴边”。。。“你在念著天边那座花园 我愿笑对眼前的脸”。。。
今天是劳动节。来Home Depot买土和草籽。正赶上时令花在大卖。
各类各色的鲜花,大大小小,五颜六色,
从店内堆到店外停车场。
买了两株薰衣草,
味道清爽还能防蚊虫。
几天前从农场买回的郁金香仍在绽放。
然后离开电脑手机,在小区里闲逛。
老人的游戏区;
年轻人的球场;
前两天又去河边溜达了一圈。
春天来的时候,临河住户们种花铺草,在河边摆上椅子。
每户都是高窗,采光赏景两不误。
不怕费事的也会搭个小亭子,
把椅子打扮一番;
或者干脆加建出一个阳光房。
“我愿在每个平凡刹那里面 握住无限”这句的灵感,不知道是不是来自William Blake《"Auguries of Innocence"》里面那段“To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
A Robin Red breast in a Cage
Puts all Heaven in a Rage.
A dove house fill’d with doves and pigeons
Shudders Hell thro’ all its regions.
A Dog starv’d at his Master’s Gate
Predicts the ruin of the State.
A Horse misus’d upon the Road
Calls to Heaven for Human blood.
Each outcry of the hunted Hare
A fiber from the Brain does tear.
。。。
He who shall train the Horse to War
Shall never pass the Polar Bar
The Beggars Dog & Widows Cat
Feed them & thou wilt grow fat
The Gnat that sings his Summers Song
Poison gets from Slanders tongue
The poison of the Snake & Newt
Is the sweat of Envys Foot
The poison of the Honey Bee
Is the Artists Jealousy
The Princes Robes & Beggars Rags
Are Toadstools on the Misers Bags
。。。
A truth that’s told with bad intent
Beats all the Lies you can invent.
It is right it should be so;
Man was made for Joy and Woe;
And when this we rightly know
Thro’ the World we safely go.
。。。
Every Night and every Morn
Some to Misery are Born.
Every Morn and every Night
Some are Born to sweet delight.
Some are Born to sweet delight,
Some are Born to Endless Night.
