那一年,在阿曼的馬斯喀特…

in

回想當時,其實出發前心中有些忐忑,擔憂著這一葉扁舟上好像至少該配個救生衣或游泳圈之類的東西…不過很快的心思就被呼呼的風聲和青天藍水佔據,覺得人生何求,不過如此!

(Muscat, Oman)

我心雀躍

我心雀躍,因為看到
彩虹於天際:
此情我幼時就有;
此情到如今依舊:
此情願長存到老,
不然毋寧死!
小孩是成人的雛型;
願我的日子能夠一一
銜接著對天地的虔敬。

(William Wordsworth)

My Heart Leaps Up

My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man:
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.

(William Wordsworth)
