〈春日冬眠〉

熬过了一个冰天雪地的冬天

我们巴望

阳光灿烂白云舒展的蓝天下

一个灵感奔涌的大自然艺术家

手上拿着调色板

从浅绿到深绿到万紫千红

把大地涂画得心花怒放

枝头蹦跳鸣唱的小鸟

上下追逐的松鼠

嘻嘻哈哈的小孩

都是些不请自来的

流动风景

没想到就在这当儿

一只不知从何处伸出来的魔手

用一幅漫天黑幕

把正要露面的春天美景

一下子封闭了起来

接着便是一连串的

封家封校封店封村封镇封城封省封国

最后把张惶失措的人类

封入了一个噩梦连连

睡不是醒也不是的

春日冬眠

SPRING HIBERNATION

 after a long, long icy winter

we anxiously wait

for an inspired naturalistic artist

with a palette of light green dark green and a riot of color

to paint a world of bursting  joy

birds jumping and singing on the treetops

squirrels chasing up and down back and forth

children laughing shouting and running

all are part of the moving scenery

suddenly

a devilish hand sticking out from nowhere

spreads an invisible dark net

over the emerging beautiful scenery

causing a series of lockdowns

of homes, schools, stores, towns, cities, states, countries…

what follows is

the entire world being locked

into a nightmarish

spring hibernation
