In the Middle of the Desert, (图)

(2005-06-02 19:37:43) 下一个

In the Middle of the Desert, I find a Young Tree Beautifully standing Smiles to embrace the harsh Sun that kills all The tender greens in sight My body, exhausted after the journey has found its true companion So I name it after you And lay in its edible, purplish shade The world fades away For the time being WHO "I" am no longer matters What "I" have learned has been undone I am convinced We were born from the same Mother Fed on the same breasts Though thousand miles apart I want it simple, this love! In the middle of the desert, so close to you My face in your palms, slowly undressing Renaming each minute of our love’s passing In the middle of the desert I have found you and the life All around you And all the lives inside me :6/2/05

影云 2005-06-03 17:22:39 回复 悄悄话 沙漠中，我寻到一颗幼树

优雅地挺立
微笑拥抱那炙杀眼里
所有柔嫩的绿色生命
的烈日

千里跋涉后，我疲倦之躯
寻到真正的伴侣
於是以你命名
卧躺在可食的紫树荫里

此刻
世界缓缓消隐
“我”是谁已不重要
“我”的历练也还原到无

我深信
尽管相距千里之遥
我们来自同一位母亲
被同样的乳汁抚育

我要简简单单地爱！
于沙漠之心，与你如此亲近
脸贴在你的掌心，缓缓解开
重新命名我们的爱
流过的分分秒秒

在沙漠之中
我发现你
你周遭的生命
与藏于我里的生生不息

影云 2005-06-02 22:32:52 回复 悄悄话 no, no PI

"I want it simple, this love!"
which means natural, love for the sake of love

rc 2005-06-02 22:27:04 回复 悄悄话 From desert to 《道德经》, are we Pao ti again?? :))


道德经》in human world...
Water in desert,
light in darkness,
love in whatever..
知凡 2005-06-02 22:19:56 回复 悄悄话 一部《道德经》就是返朴归真的秘诀!!
年龄增长，世事洞明，唯有赤子般的率真，返朴归真才能永葆青春!!:)
齐诵《道德经》!!!!

:)
rc 2005-06-02 22:10:29 回复 悄悄话 Thanks. YY
影云 2005-06-02 22:06:55 回复 悄悄话 Paz has too many books worth reading.
His best prose is the Labyrinth of Solitude, but I started with In light of India for no particular reason.
poems collected in his a draft of shadow & a tree within
are really really good

beautifull said, ltg, also Dao De Jing is a "bible" of Jung :)
rc 2005-06-02 22:02:13 回复 悄悄话 Glad that you also love Dao De Jing. If I can only pick one favorate book, Nodoubt I will picj Dao De Jing!

Hmmm....No wonder..

LTG 2005-06-02 21:56:24 回复 悄悄话 The "Way" is in Mother Nature....Universe....

"We" came from them....

"We" want love....

"We" need love....

"We" want to love....

From whom do we learn about Love??

Mother Nature, Father Nature....where Life springs from....

When i meet a loving person, for example, there is always some earthy quality in her....

BTW,

Dao De Jing is one of the greatest books ever written by two-legged creatures:)
rc 2005-06-02 21:55:34 回复 悄悄话 YY. which book of Paz would you like to recommend?
rc 2005-06-02 21:51:31 回复 悄悄话 LTG, Can you explain what you just said again? ABout love and MOther nature..

影云 2005-06-02 21:46:48 回复 悄悄话 rc ,wowow:)you should read Paz then, a person who is both a best critic and a best poet :)

true, a good poem has a strengh/energy of "opening self (of poet and readers)"



LTG 2005-06-02 21:44:54 回复 悄悄话 then, we can reread Dao De Jing again, or The Way, in which the Mother Nature/Universe has already "preprogrammed" the activites on earth including the two-legged creatures called human beings :)

so, art should also be nature-like....natural, to say the least....

love without nature is not love.....
rc 2005-06-02 21:37:56 回复 悄悄话 Energy flows freely in virtual world, who are the strangers?? :))

I feel that a good poem fills with condensed energy!

When talk to the artistic friends through computer, my logical mind is being stained with the "vague and tender" colors..:)
影云 2005-06-02 21:28:14 回复 悄悄话 thinking is like digging
the deeper, the more
. . .
amazing!!!

strangeness
cannot find its space
between "hearts
connected so enigmatically"
:)

LTG 2005-06-02 21:18:46 回复 悄悄话 y.y.

don't be a "stranger"!!

:))

it is amazing how much wisdom you all have....really....
影云 2005-06-02 21:14:02 回复 悄悄话 discussion again? (; ))
wow, "stranger" makes me think what is strange now :)
LTG 2005-06-02 21:05:11 回复 悄悄话 forgot who said it, but it goes like:

a good poem should contain good energy....

good energy not only travels between lovers, but also strangers....

are "we" strangers??

:)
影云 2005-06-02 20:33:18 回复 悄悄话 very well-said, rc:)
rc 2005-06-02 20:31:47 回复 悄悄话 Willing to travel through the desert needs unusual courage.
Standing and growing in the desert needs tremendous strength..
Finding each other among the desert needs unexpected fortune
Falling in love with each needs Heaven's bless..

Whoever can find his/her true love is rrrrrreally blessed.

LTG 2005-06-02 20:14:35 回复 悄悄话 a piece of the mind...

peace of the mind.....

glad i "caught" the poem before it escapes me :)
影云 2005-06-02 20:08:32 回复 悄悄话 u r very very welcome:)

love the poem, it has strength beneath its tenderness, very beautiful
LTG 2005-06-02 19:58:22 回复 悄悄话 cool pic!!!

thanx 4 sharing!!!!
影云 2005-06-02 19:47:32 回复 悄悄话
