  • Pinecrest Lake

    山雨欲来风满湖 天突然黑了 森林里的风横扫一切 人群散去 热闹的湖边安静下来 正遗憾来得不巧 在失望中品着冰淇凌 冰淇凌吃完了 天又慢慢地亮晴了 八月的天 孩子的脸 山上的树林在夕阳下灿烂着 孩子们又回来了 带来了叫声和笑声 湖上划起了一条小船 雨后的夕阳映红了山和湖 宿营地篝火飘起缈缈炊烟 这时湖畔传来了”教父”的主题曲 悠悠的曼德拉前奏 夹着波浪冲岸的水声 这一刻 一切都那么和谐完美 宁静而丰盈 忽然被这个世界的美好 感动: 生命中美好的东西 总是在你最不经意的时候 最没有准备的时候 悄然而至 又稍纵即逝

  • Over Halloween

    A week after Halloween, in the dance studio, a 6 year old girl asked me, “Where did those Halloween decorations go?”  “Halloween is over; you have to wait until next Halloween.” I said. She was very disappointed; she enjoyed watching those grimacing pumpkin faces, witches broomstick and black cats while she was dancing. She wishes…
