W.S.Merwin的一本最新的诗集

在读W.S.Merwin的一本最新的诗集:《Present Company》,真是宝刀不老,写的都是日常生活中的事和感觉,却充满了温情,智慧和诗意。 还是他一贯的风格,娓娓道来,不动声色,却处处透着敏感和深情。

他被认为是当今最伟大的诗人之一。

今天,芝加哥的天气好极了,春天来了,郁金香盛开,树在发芽,空气温润甜美,就像他的这首诗:

To This May

They know so much more now about
the heart we are told but the world
still seems to come one at a time
one day one year one season and here
it is spring once more with its birds
nesting in the holes in the walls
its morning finding the first time
its light pretending not to move
always beginning as it goes
