夏日里第一朵菡萏
文｜雨文(美国）
图｜海燕
一阵微风吹来，池水
漾起涟漪
丝丝水草拉起手，想挽住
暖风那如珠情话
滴翠荷叶，骑士风度十足
扭曲了身子，让路给
夏日里第一朵菡萏
她
披着晨露的清新
含着西施的浅笑
池水当镜，梳洗淡妆
寻找诗句的君子
看见此景，丟开了
五言七言，轻声唱起
关关睢鸠
THE FIRST LOTUS OF SUMMER
By Sarah Chen (USA)
A breeze comes from east,
touching the water, and giving birth to soft ripples,
slender reeds join their hands,
trying to safeguard the breeze's pearly love words.
A fresh green lotus leaf, twisting its body
in a cavalier manner, makes way for
the first lotus of summer.
she
dressed in a dewy gown,
smiling a Xi Shi smile,
is putting blush on her cheeks, pond her mirror.
A genteel young man stumbling upon this,
instantly forgets the wording
he pondered so long for his essay, and starts
to sing a thousand-year-old love song.
Note: Xi Shi, one of the most beautiful four women (四大美女) in ancient China. And she was from Southeast China, therefore it is proper to compare lotus to her.
