※ 引述《saico (我可以的)》之銘言:
: 對不起 因為對英詩才剛入手
: 所以讀得不多也不廣不深
: 我找了一下 沒有看到有關蘭花的
: 但我想找一下....
: 可以請大家就已前讀過或是記憶中的 提供我一下方向嗎?
: 謝謝!
我找到一首, 但是我覺得寫得不好.
Semper Regalis
In six days God created earth,
With man to rule it all.
He made the mountains and the lakes
As well as forests tall.
He bedecked the land with flowers,
And with odors fresh and sweet.
And the evening of the sixth day
Found the earth now all complete.
And when he viewed his handiwork
Upon the seventh day,
One flower family caught his eye
And caused the Lord to say,
"Their blooms are surely regal, and
Their beauty is supreme,
For their different forms and colors
Constitute a poet's dream."
Then God knelt down and blessed
These plants and tenderly he said,
"I'll call this family Orchids,
And its numbers shall spread
To all the regions of this earth,
And its blooms shall be the queen
Of all the flowers I have made,
For none finer shall be seen."
