Somewhere I Have Never Travelled

Somewhere I Have Never Travelled
   --E.E.Cummings(1894-1962)

  Somewhere I have never travelLed,
  gladly beyond any experience.
  Your eyes have their silence,
  in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me or which I
cannot touch because they are too near.

  Your slightest look will easily unclose me
  though I have closed myself as fingers.
  You open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens touching
skillfully,mysteriously her first rose

  Or if your wish be to close me,
  I and my life will shut very beautifully,
  suddenly,as when the heart of this flower imagines
  the snow carefully everywhere descending;

  Nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
  the power of your intense fragility:whose texture
  compels me with the colour of its countries,
  rendering death and forever with each breathing

  (I do not know what is is about you that closes
  and opens; only something in me understands
  the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
  nobody,not even the rain,has such small hands

  我从未旅行过的地方,
  欣然超越 任何的经验,
  你的眼神多静寂:
  你最纤弱的手势有物将我围绕,
  我无法触及,只因太靠近。

  你至轻的一瞥,轻易地将我松开,
  纵使我紧闭自己如手指,
  你依旧一瓣一瓣松开我,如春天开启
  第一朵玫瑰(巧妙而神秘地,碰触)。

  或者若你要关闭我,
  我和我生命会美丽地合上,骤然,
  一如这朵花的心,想像
  雪,小心翼翼从四方飘落;

  这世上我感受到的,无物能及你
  极精致纤弱的力量,其质地
  以其固有的本色驱动我
  在每一呼吸间,体验死亡与永恒。

  (我不知道这关闭我,又开启我的,
  你,究竟是什么,只有我内心了解
  你眼神的声音,比玫瑰更深邃)
  �有人,即使是雨,有这样的小手。

RTP 见闻

在了解了更多后,发现客户或其它人认为严格执行标准要求过于严苛的源由,实际是对美国当地法规、使用方法的认知不正确的缘故。 居住在森林里,地广人稀,不知道拥挤人多为何物。出门买菜需要走到几英里外。 可能每次出门都需要跑到几英里外去吃饭,麻烦,因此他们部分人养成了中午不吃饭的习惯。 早上6点天亮,晚上8点半天色渐暗下来。 2023-07

下江南

  到杭州两天了,住处与西湖隔着一座山,园子里的石榴树结满了石榴,上面还有一个鸟窝,中午看到的时候,只有一只鸟蛋。旁边上还有一颗扁食树,从小时到现在将近十几年没见到这种树了,记得老家的村子里有一颗,上次回去的时候也没见着,听人早已没了踪影,一次大风被连根拔起,再也没了前时的忆记。   来时不巧,正是一年当中最热的几天,没怎么出去逛,只是昨日上午到物美买了些日常用品,在大街上走时,没遇到几个说得过去的女孩子,不像在重庆的大街上,夸张一点,20米之内准能遇。   名声太大,感觉有些名不符实,慢慢体验吧,看她的温柔是否能征服我?
