酷我-北美枫

非马

日光围巾

突然
光秃秃的
树
停止了
嗦嗦的抖动
有鸟声自远而近
龟缩的脖子
一个个
挺
直
伸
长

顿时我知道
就是这样的一条围巾
在那个寒冷的冬天
让老莫的眼睛
迸出了火花
把巴黎灰暗的天空
渲染成
万紫千红

附注:
1. 南方友人来信说：今天我这里风和日丽,你那边还是冰天雪地吧，要不要我剪一匹阳光给你当围巾？
2. 画家莫迪里阿尼(Amedeo Modigliani, 1884-1920) 以擅画有优美颀长脖子的画像闻名於世。

SUNSHINE SCARF

Suddenly
snow-laden boughs
stop trembling
From afar
chirps of birds
can be heard
drawing nearer and nearer
One after another we see
contracted necks
straighten up
and s-t-r-e-------t---c--h

This must be the scarf
which lit up
Modigliani’s eyes
and illuminated
Paris sky
that gloomy winter
a riot of color

*Letter of a friend from the South: “ It’s full of sunshine here today. I believe your place is still covered with ice and snow.
Do you want me to cut a piece of sunlight and make you a scarf?”
