采野花

你在山坡上寻找
紫的、黄的和小草
你所采集的
是大自然的词藻

当你两手捧给我
却没有说半个字
此中的真意——
看我能否领悟到？


Hardwar Gap*

一条小小的岭径
长年隐蔽在雾里

沿途有各色的木槿
现在盛开着咖啡

我说：最爱这风景
美，再加上神秘

你只是含笑盈盈：
“诗人在说东喻西”


注: *Hardwar Gap 在牙买加京士顿市
    近郊的蓝山上


海滩细语

我俩躺在海滩上细语
只有低飞的白鸥听见
他们去传给了风
风无意间泄露给太阳


太阳盛怒，用妒火
的炽热，要将
我俩烤成一对
殉爱的木乃伊


别离

再度离别的清早
播送“齐伐哥医生”

你回多难的家乡
浪潮是我的叮咛

飘飘然地来去
一片海上的彩云

在我感光的心底
录下永恒的投影
			

Picking Wild Flowers

You searched and collected on a slope
Purple and yellow with some grasses
What you have really gathered
Were the Nature’s flowery language

When you presented them with both hands
Not a single word was uttered 
You seemed to let me comprehend
What was the real meaning behind?


Hardwar Gap*

A small ridge path is hided
In a year round mist

Colorful hibiscuses are along two sides
And now coffee trees are blooming

I said: "Loveliest is this scenery
Beauty, yet added with some mystery"

You smiled as if you implied:
"Poets say one thing means another" 


Note: Hardwar Gap is near to Kingston, 
      Jamaica at the Blue Mountain range.


Whispering on Beach

We whispered while we lay on a beach
Only the low flying gulls could hear
They passed the secret to the wind
And the wind leaked it to the sun

The sun suddenly burst into great anger
Using its mighty jealousy heat
To bake us into a odd pair
Of mummies who died for eternal love


Parting

In the morning when we were again parting
I played the song of Doctor Zhevago

To your trouble country you were about to go
My farewell bides were like tides everlasting 

Come and go, so swiftly you were
Like a rosy and flying cloud above the sea

In my heart of sensitive film
Recorded a permanent image, you and me
