76.（組詩）蒼涼人間之三：枯木思春

文/黎曆
  
伸出槁枯的手
去挽握憑窗而去的時間 
不料 時間太脆弱
竟被撚成碎片
隨風送遠 曾經的繁華
也就跟著去了

千年已過  年輪之隙
依然深埋你等候逢春的卵
期待輪回裏吹來泛青的風
不幸 卻被一群寒鴉的咒語啄破 
幻想盤旋三匝後 
就可繞過凋零的今生

而進入來世的盛開
理想豐滿 現實卻很骨感

(Poetry Series) The Desolate World III: The Withered Tree Longs for Spring

 

By Li Li

 

Stretching out my withered hand,

To grasp the time slipping through the window,

But time, too fragile,

Is torn into fragments,

Carried away by the wind, along with the past splendor.

 

A thousand years have passed, through the gap of the rings,

Still buried deep within, the egg waiting for spring’s arrival.

Hoping that in the cycle of life, a breeze will come, fresh and green.

Alas, it is shattered by the curse of a flock of cold crows,

The illusion spirals three times,

And I may avoid the decay of this life,

 

But enter the bloom of the next world.

Ideals are full, but reality is painfully thin.

This poem explores themes of time, longing, and the cyclical nature of life, where the passage of time can both destroy and transform. The contrast between idealism and harsh reality is expressed in the final lines.
