When the daylight edges toward the night, you should put your never-ending work aside, making a cup of coffee, switching on your computer, to read poems, to read their souls listening to light music & having a suck of coffee….
This is also a nice life, as poems can inspire us and refresh our minds…..
Auguries of innocence
William Blake/威廉.布莱克
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.
天真的预示
一颗沙中看出一个世界, 一朵花里看出一座天堂, 把无限放在你的手掌上, 把永恒在一刹那间收藏。

The Blue Boat
Kathleen Jamie
How late the daylight edges
toward the northern night
as though journeying
in a blue boat,
gilded in mussel shell
with slung from its mast
a lantern like our old idea
of the soul
蓝色的船
醉人的黎明已去
夜幕也将随之来临
仿佛旅行
在蓝色的船里闪烁
桅杆上升起的灯
如我们心灵的诗语

Butterfly
Michael Bullock
The first butterfly of spring
Orange and purple
Flits across my path
A flying flower
That changes
The color of my day
蝴碟
那春天最初的蝴碟
橘黄而紫红
轻快飞过我的路
一朵飞翔的花
改变着
日子的颜色
