To a Beauty in the Snow

To a Beauty in the Snow

 

The first snow came down overnight.

Next morning the view of the capital city

was like something out of the blue, literally,

as if flowers and the spring returned onto the pear trees,

as if a makeup artist applied snow dusts

to the whole city with powder puffs.

 

Your peachy smiling face was a standout in the snow

that has frequented my dreams day in and day out.

I have been intoxicated by your beauty ever since

I first saw you illuminating in the white sawdust.

 

【七絕】題冰雪美人照

 

 

一樹梨花一樹春，京城新雪素輕塵。

桃花笑麵常留夢，如醉如癡畫裏人。
