漢英雙語詩〈有一句话〉刊登於《芝加哥時報》2022.7.16

有一句話

有一句話

想對花說

卻遲遲沒有出口

在我窗前

她用盛開的生命

為我帶來春天

今天早晨

感激溫潤的我

終於鼓足勇氣

對含露脈脈的她說

妳真......

斜側裡卻閃出一把利剪

把她同我的話

一齊攔腰剪斷

WORDS NOT SAID

there was something

I wanted to tell the flower

blooming before my window

she brought me spring

this morning

full of warm gratitude

I finally gathered up courage

and began

"you sure are ..."

when suddenly a pair of scissors

sticking out from nowhere

snipped both my words

and her
