※ 引述《julians (要勇敢面對)》之銘言:
: A Small Hand
: On a seething but air-conditioned night,
: While here reads 24, there goes up to 39,
: With the head burning incandescent,
: clusters and drops of sweats,
: Swaying and petrified,
: Comes a small hand.
: This small hand,
: held in my hand just 4 or 5 years ago,
: With trust and worry,
: With care and love;
: At that time,
: Such as in the parking lot, or the amusement park,
: Standing by your side, or behind,
: With the suspended heart and eyes--not knowing where to
: tender, or to let you go, to let you have your freedom.
: But, always, as is promised and wished,
: Your hand is clenched in my hand,
: Your small hand--
: With greatness of trust and belief.
: Now, it is your small hand put
: Upon my scathing forehead,
: With the call from the farther side,
: Checking the boundary of the heat;
: And now I know you understand,
: With your small hand,
: To show and express your care.
: Oh, with your small hand.
: In ten or fifteen years,
: The small hand will become the giant hand;
: At that time,
: May you can caress and receive
: The once tender touch of the small hand.
: Julian 10/15, 2006
To me, your poem evokes similar images and themes (like a deja vu)
of the following all-time classic jazz ballad, "Autumn Leaves."
For instance, your "a small hand" seems to echo to
"the sun-burned hands" in the following lyrics.
Autumn Leaves
English lyrics by johnny mercer,
Music by joseph kosma
The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon Ill hear old winters song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
