擁有一個小菜園的鄰居

終於開始捕殺後院的兔子了

 

發現一隻躺在我的草坪上

靠近它時 它側著身子想跑 

已經跑不動了

我閉上眼 讓人了結了它的苦痛

 

給經常來我前院花叢的一隻幼兔

放了些白菜芯和切碎的胡蘿卜

”吃吧 從此你就要自己開火做飯了。。。

不過 以後你盡可到我的園子裏蹭一頓”

 

你不必再大睜著眼睛 豎耳斜眼瞄著我

時刻準備逃離

我也不會再滿園去追

嘴裏叼著薰衣草花的你了

 

其實 在人間 你與我多麽的相似 ——

都是失去了親人的天物

都揣著一顆心驚膽戰的心 活著

My neighbor who owns a small vegetable garden

Finally started to hunt rabbits in the backyard

 

I found one lying on my lawn

When approaching it, it leaned on its side and tried to run

But it couldn’t run anymore

I closed my eyes and asked someone to end its pain

 

I put out some cabbage hearts and chopped carrots

For a baby rabbit often seen among flowers in my front yard

"Go ahead and eat. From now on, you will have to find food for yourself…

But, you can always come to my garden for a meal."

 

You no longer need to keep your eyes wide open on me，

Ready to flee at any time；

I won't chase after you all over the garden anymore,

When you hold lavender flowers in your mouth

 

Actually, in this world, how similar you are to me ——

We are both heavenly things who have lost our loved ones；

We both live with a heart beating in fear and worries
