黑夜裏創作的兒歌

(2021-02-19 13:49:02) 下一個

德州一場大雪過後,本來小朋友們還很歡樂,覺得可以玩兒雪了。誰知道樂極生悲,剛到晚上就停電了。零下十幾度沒有暖氣的日子不好過啊!客廳的壁爐裝飾作用大於實際作用,除非緊緊靠著壁爐,其實感受不到什麽熱量。

停電第一個晚上,小朋友們還興致勃勃,拉著大人一起編了下麵這個故事:

Once upon a midnight dreary

There arose a traveler weary.

He had with him a dragon’s tooth

Which he took to his favorite booth.

The merchant there would give him naught but a pence

So he threw his wares over the fence.

A passerby saw the tooth shining

And picked it up, smiling.

Upon the tooth there was a fairy

Who was picking a strawberry.

The traveler took the tooth to the greatest magician,

For finding the meaning was his mission.

The magician could find no meaning,

So he threw it into the rubbish heap, gleaming.

The tooth fell and fell into a dark hole, 

and when it returned, it had become a mole.

The mole went to find some cheese,

Feeling this task could be accomplished with ease.

The mole trekked across the land,

Eventually getting buried in sand.

All of a sudden, the mole heard a spell

Telling him how to ring a bell

The mole rung the bell, and saw the light

For the first time, he had gained his sight.

 

第二天還是那麽冷,沒有溫暖的家等著,連玩兒雪都沒意思了,就憋在家裏玩兒牌吧。第三天早上終於來電了,除了水不能直接喝,生活已經基本恢複正常。????
