What we once enjoyed
And deeply loved
We can never lose,
For all that we love deeply
Becomes a part of us.
---Helen Keller
對於童年最美好的記憶就是和父親去雙清公園。我們總是步行去,走過邵水橋,經過水府廟。水府廟是古人為供奉河神,以避水患,祈求吉利而建。廟前江畔建有戲樓,每年廟會,祈神唱戲,盛極一方。可惜隻有廟前戲樓——半入雲古亭尚存,兩旁原來的副對聯:“妙手空空,一彈秋水一彈月;餘音嫋嫋,半入江風半入雲。”戲台後麵化裝間的對聯:“古往今來隻如此;淡妝濃抹總相宜。”都不複存在了。
從家裏走到公園大約需要一個小時,那是個古色古香的公園,因位居資水、邵水匯合處,故以“雙清”命名。園中亭閣相映,曲徑通幽,頗具古典園林之風采。曾吸引曆代墨客騷人,攬勝抒情,留下許多墨跡和詩文。平時遊人很少,父親和我漫步在公園,欣賞著排列成林的古代修建的碑記。“嶼扼雙流合,江涵一廊煙”,是魏源的手筆。而父親最喜歡的就是雕刻在石碑上的:“閑花落盡秋更好。” 的詩句。
每次去公園,必在雙清亭小坐,雙清亭為純木結構,六角重簷,脊飾龍鳳,雀替鬥拱,繞以明廊。 坐在亭傍,有微風襲來,看船舫點點, 吟誦著亭外亭上古詩人留下的楹聯,“雲帶鍾聲穿樹去,月移塔影過江來”,好不愜意。
最後一次和父親去雙清公園是1989年的冬天,那天飄著小雪,給公園添上了別樣的風采。父親和我在雙清亭前合影,這是我和父親在雙清公園唯一的一張合影,我一直把它帶在身邊,是我的保護神。
2001年春天回到故鄉,重遊雙清公園,一切如舊,隻是父親不在了。“年年歲歲花相識,歲歲年年人不同。”寫到這裏,淚水模糊了我的雙眼,我懷念父親。遠處傳來了,艾裏克·克萊普頓的"淚灑天堂"......
Would you know my name, if i saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same, if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know that I do not belong here in heaven
Would you hold my hand, if I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand, if I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day
"Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven
Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart, and have you beggin
Please
Darlin' please
Beyong the door, there's peace I'am sure
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven
Would you know my name, if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same, if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I do not belong here in heaven
