《五洲四季·云端诗荟》夏至篇之帕特·诺兰

Poetics Multilingual Mag

A SPECIAL IDLENESS

“I taste a special kind of idleness”
I rule the morning with inactivity
master of my domain I breathe easily
the soft contours of a muted light
visit me upon my appointed perch
jay wild pigeon frantic and antic
among the furrows of early dew
vultures have yet to dry their wings
I watch the bamboo grow day by day
butterfly doesn’t get domestic cat
it was born in a cocoon after all
in a world of flowers and leaves and
ever shifting spectrums of a breeze
I can sit vacant as an unpainted board


《一种特别的闲适》（美国，帕特·诺兰）

“我品味一种特别的闲适”
我以无所事事驾驭早晨
掌控我的领域，呼吸自在
一束轮廓柔和的微光
在我预定的栖息地探访我
松鸦与野鸽子古怪而有趣
在朝露的犁沟间一片忙乱
秃鹫的翅膀尚未晾干
我日复一日看竹子生长
蝴蝶不理解家猫
毕竟它是在茧中出生
在一个花与叶
光谱随风变幻的世界
我静坐如一块未上漆的木板
