讀到一首英文詩(附後)，有一張插圖。乍一看，樺樹林似乎睜開無數隻眼睛，令人怦然心動。
竦竦樺林秋 瞳瞳千目對
蒼天眼四周 君子心三畏
無愧便無憂 有為常有悔
誰聞石點頭 了法玄真未
三畏：《論語·季子》君子有三畏：畏天地，畏大人，畏聖人之言。
石點頭：書名，取義於【晉】生公和尚“頑石點頭，推因及果，勸人作善”之意。
了法：佛教語，謂領悟法理。【宋】王安石《望江南·歸依三寶讚/其二》“願我六根常寂靜，心如寶鏡映琉璃，了法更無疑。”
以上五律，原押平韻(見下)，上下聯對換而成仄韻。仄韻似乎更順 ——
瞳瞳千目對 竦竦樺林秋
君子心三畏 蒼天眼四周
有為常有悔 無愧便無憂
了法玄真未 誰聞石點頭
I Go Among Trees by Wendell Berry
I go among trees and sit still
All my stirring becomes quiet
Around me like circles on water
My tasks lie in their places
Where I left them, asleep like cattle
Then what is afraid of me comes
And lives for a while in my sight
What it fears in me leaves me
and the fear of me leaves it.
It sings, and I hear its song.
Then what I am afraid of comes.
I live for a while in its sight.
What I fear in it leaves it,
And the fear of it leaves me
It sings and I hear its song
After days of labor
Mute in my consternations
I hear my song at last
And I sing it. As we sing
The day turns, the trees move
