我這個人對英詩閱讀能力簡直是零
然後現在老師給我們一首詩
要我們寫出作者想要表達的meseage
但是問題是我每個字都看的懂
可是要說詩的意境就真的不了解
可以拜託大家幫我看一下嗎??
這首詩是William Stafford的
You Reading This, Be Ready
Starting here, what do you want to remember?
How sunlight creeps along a shining floor?
What scent of old wood hovers, what softened
sound from outside fills the air?
Will you ever bring a better gift for the world
than the breathing respect that you carry
wherever you go right now? Are you waiting
for time to show you some better thoughts?
When you turn around, starting here, lift this
new glimpse that you found; carry into evening
all that you want from this day. This interval you spent
reading or hearing this, keep it for life -
What can anyone give you greater than now,
starting here, right in this room, when you turn around?
--William Stafford
真的拜託大家了!!
