I Have a Beautiful Friend

 

 

I have a beautiful friend

Who has lived in his wheelchair

For over fifty some years

Can’t talk, can’t move much

Paralyzed since childhood

A true prodigal returning from suffering

 

Under his instruction, head

Turning from left to right

I fished out five books

Of poetry he has published

His face beet red from struggling

To make out an intelligible word

 

A beautiful man, I mean

His eyes, burning with more love

Than I have seen in most people

Drooling like a baby when

I read out loud his love poems

Of flowers, pain and love. And soon

Tears flooded our laughter

z.f. 回复 悄悄话 很动人启发人,但又不煽情,叙述情绪把握得很好,语言细腻平实,平常话语,读来“诗意”。。。

和这幅图配得别有情趣。。。谢谢分享。。。
