标题[分享] The Family of Grammar
时间Mon Feb 19 16:38:02 2007
跟大家分享自己创作的诗"文法家族"
用意是希望我们可以用不同的素材
让学生从不同的角度来感受英语好玩的地方
那我也都藉此让学生知道语言也是有生命力的
就像自己的家人那样 ^. ^
The Family of Grammar (by Eddy Guitar Chen)
Verbs are dead when
Enshrined in a dictionary.
They come into being when
We breathe them into life.
Nouns are clothes
Embodying things seen or unseen.
We are clad as children
Parents, teachers, and else.
Prepositions are nomads
Roaming a savanna –
Searching for nouns
To keep warm in winter.
Adverbs are playwrights
Wielding their magical quills
And setting scenes
For the play of A-Z.
Adjectives are painters
Pumping a river of hues
To characterize different worlds –
Real, surreal, impressionistic or else.
Connectives are doctors
Performing generative operations
To extend a sentence's life,
Before Death drops a period.
Auxiliaries are pianists
Playing chamber music
Under different modes imparting
Certainty, probability, or obligation.
Determiners are the GPS,
Locating and identifying
A target's state – definite or indefinite
Or given or new.
Participles are retired soldiers –
Failing to fight again but
Retelling and spinning tales
Of their glorious past as verbs.
Subordinators are social class makers
Nicely marrying each clause
But cruelly drawing a line
Between what is main and subordinate.
Exclamations are Santa Claus,
Rarely knocking on our door.
But once visiting, they
Refresh us by surprise!
