〈鄰居的盆花〉

多年鄰居的老先生幾天前去世了

他們陽台上開得正茂的幾盆花

今早都垂下了頭

愛花的老太太想必沒聽昨晚的新聞

不知道夜裡有一場早來的霜

NEIGHBOR’S FLOWERS

A week ago our neighbor Eddie passed away 

This morning I saw the potted flowers on their patio 

all drooped and withered

His wife Helen who loves flowers so much 

must not have heard the weather report

warning of an early frost
