A daily tour on late summer

Its worth have a daily tour on even such a hot day......by Taipei sightseeing bus after all..........so, its coming is very expectful.

I choose the blue line route,.....................All every spot the bus passes are special ones with their  historical significence...............

The red bus also drives passing Jhongshan N. R. , which is a very famous street being planted many pretty maple trees with the swaying green shades on both sides.  Remember I usually took 217 green bus along the street to down town, and at that time we had lived in New Beitou...................

On this Champs-Elysees-like long street, there are many luxury architectures standing  by both sides.....................

These mixed-style buildings show me a kind of movie montage--the bright new building is convex, and the shady old one is concave, like continuous montage effect--fading in and fading out.  When the bus passes them quickly, I find myself being attracted mostly with those familiar and nostalgia buildings at those swift glances. 

住士林時，常清晨外出散步，走在大大的方格石板鋪路上，望向上面的樹蔭常有詩意的遐思，記下一些詩想，回到住處才寫出來，有時怕忘記，邊走邊複想，像記誦甚麼一樣。這首詩也刊登在青副上。記得只有青副願意刊登這類舊調調的現代詩。

清晨漫步中山北路

終於有了一整列林蔭的庇護

鳥聲沒有洩露夢境的夜歌

林蔭細細分佈清亮的鳴聲

每一翠綠都獲致些許輕響

一路隨我而行

中山北路終於有了

Jhongshan N.R. finally has 

優美的生活律動

Its graceful living rhythm

最寧靜的忙碌

The quietest bustling

仍沿著舊時光進行

Still is underway along the old time

迎向最現代清早的尊重

Welcoming the respect to the modern early morning

林蔭靜悄悄地落下

落下最輕盈的伴奏

鳥聲才是最隱秘的主曲

在無所不是的清晨空間

中山北路上
