[somewhere i have never travelled] by e.e. cummings
somewhere i have never traveled, 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 easily will unclose me
though i have closed myself as fingers,
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skilfully, 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 color of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing
(i do not know what it 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
谢谢到访和留言。
看到你的名字,不知为什么,就想起了morning glory,在我的家乡,它是很常见的花儿,夏天的时候,各色的它们耀眼田野,有着很强的生命力,现在,每年的春天,我还要买几盆的。。。
我把你的诗放到我的博文《蝶舞翩翩》中,好吗?
谢谢你!也祝你节日开心快乐!
