妳終離去, 不再與我在這片天空的枝椏下乘涼......

此刻的我,特選取書架上收藏將近三十年最喜愛的詩集"In Someone's Shadow", 裡面的"No Whisky Bars"系列之ㄧ"May 5", 獻給親愛的Rebecc, 代表我絲絲的不捨與深深的祝福:

作者:Rod Mckuen

The sky

is the forehead of the morning

passing the sun along the day,

distributing the clouds

that move above us

and ride with us till nightfall.

And your eyes

are the bottom of the day

set on fire by words,

made to move by sighs

and the rustling of the trees.

We'll go to the hills then,

　　　　take our time.

Climb until we find one

　closest to the sky.

I'll spread a blanket on the ground

and make a picnic of your body.

You'll face the sky and count the clouds

and when the counting stops

I'll take you home again,

down a dozen hills under a hundred skies.

I know the ground is not yet green all over

　　　　but trust me.

I'll find the greenest hill of all

and yours red dress will be the single flower

that grows against the grass.

Me and the day

we care for you

without the rivalry of common lovers

and we'll be careful as the rain,

　　　　gentle as the clouds.
