2008.10 非馬每月一詩
螢火蟲
非馬
根據科學家們的預測
今年夏天的螢火蟲會極端稀少
甚至絕跡
顯然他們的電腦又出了毛病
今晚這滿院子裡
閃閃爍爍此起彼落的
不正是我久違了的
老朋友們嗎
此刻問題不在於
該不該根據
他們搖擺不定的科學報告
再喝它一杯咖啡
而是我的眼睛只有這麼一雙
不知該跟隨
牠們照亮的哪一條幽徑
去尋找
我失落多年的寶藏
FIREFLIES
William Marr
based on their laborious studies
scientists have predicted
this summer we won't see
many, if any at all
fireflies
some virus must have again infected
their computers
for in my backyard tonight
flickering here and there
fireflies are everywhere
in view of the equally wavering
scientific results
the question is no longer
to drink or not to drink
another cup of coffee
rather it's which lighted path
I should take
that will lead me
to the lost treasure
of an enchanted childhood
