在花心裏夢想
天然的寧靜溫柔芬芳
山川、月亮、歲月悠揚
碩大的樹葉碧波蕩漾
我們生來都有翅膀
母親的守護和書香
帶著我們回到久遠的時光
掠過星球、飛過異國他鄉
物質很輕很輕
輕到可以自由飛翔
輕到可以回到來的地方
Happy Mother’s Day. James Lin
Dreaming in the heart of a flower
At peace within tender fragrance, and though
The mountains move, and late grows the hour
And the moon above only fades to throw
Anachronistic light on the green leaves
As a mother gives nurture and gives flight
An electromotive force cannot grieve
Expels the shadows and draws into light
A previous life, now dusty and gray
A new world, not yet a possibility
Starts the ball of yarn with which to relay
A conduit to past humility
Enough to dispel truth and conceal why
And to answer the question, “Who am I?”
