Except to Heaven, she is nought
Except for Angels - lone
Except to some wide-wandering Bee
A flower superfluous blown
Except for winds - provincial
Except by Butterflies
Unnoticed as a single dew
That on the Acre lies.
The smallest Housewife in the grass,
Yet take her from the Lawn
And somebody has lost the face
That made Existence - Home!
除了天堂她一無所有
除了天使她一無朋友
除了到處飛翔的蜜蜂
花隨風擺動也是多餘
除了風吹她樸實無華
除了蝴蝶之翩翩飛舞
不會在意如此一滴露
落在土地上靜靜躺臥
卑微婦人身在草叢中
尚未把她帶離青草地
某些人就失去原面貌
此容顏原存於家園中
默想
詩篇65:9「你眷顧地,降下透雨,使地大得肥美。神的河滿了水;你這樣澆灌了地,好為人預備五穀。」每個人的所是及所有,就是恰恰好神所給的,不多不少,不遲不早。神知道人一切,人無法知道自己「身後的事」。我們只有在信心中恰如己份的活著。
