An Easter Surprise - Poem by William Weiyi Marr

Lying magnificently in the nest

the two blue eggs, still radiant

with the mother's warmth

must have been hidden by God

to give children an Easter surprise

yet I, no longer a child

happen to find them

The mother bird startled away

by my intrusion

is now standing on the grass

watching my every move

Though knowing well

the briefer a beauty is

the more lasting it can become

I still want another look

but promise to let the mother

get back to her nest

before her warmth on the eggs

dissipates completely

The Chinese version:

复活节的惊喜

静静躺在舒适的窝内
因母体的温暖而更显得
晶莹夺目的
这两颗鸟蛋
一定是上帝藏在那里
给孩子们复活节的惊喜
却让既非信徒更非小孩的我
无意中发现

被我的粗手粗脚吓飞了的
母鸟
此刻正在不远处的草地上
目不转睛地监视着
我

明知越短暂的美
越可能永恒
我还是忍不住要多看它们几眼
但我保证会让母鸟
在卵面馀温散尽之前
回到它的窝
