A droplet of ...

 

I am a droplet of gold,

Tinier but harder than a drop of water;

Formed under great pressure deep inside the solid earth,

And purified at high temperature heated by the burning sun.

 

Glowing by day under the sunshine,

Sparkling at night with the moonlight;

Dignity is the character to ever pursue,

And integrity is my power to perpetually conquer.

 

If you see a battle in a field,

I am there, forwarding and fighting like a golden bullet;

If you note droplets of gold surrounding a diamond on a ring,

I am one of those, smiling and nodding to you with my friends.

 

Water cannot soften my hardness,

Water is not powerful enough to erase my color;

As a droplet of gold,

I will never ever be changed.

(1) “Water is powerful” but gold is more powerful than water. ^_^

(2) The above writing was originated from a poem 《A drop of ...》 by Lingzis:

Thank you all for stopping by. I am still supposed to be in a state of 闭关.

Wow! coolboy wrote a poem! While reading it again it sounds like a 战斗诗文 or a 革命诗文 to me now, haha.

观察了一下,好像大家都是用英文,人家coolboy 也只是在难点的地方用中文标出,awgn开了个坏头,用了中文,该打。哈,感觉有点耍无赖,没办法,前两天看了电影Cellular. 里面那个人就是这样,自己开车打手机,还要叫别的司机 Get off the phone. 哈哈。。。

看了葱葱油前半句,我想“这个葱葱油,该打”;看完后办句,我想“这孩子,还算老实”。
既然大家都用英文,我就偏写多些中文。:)

人家coolboy英文好,所以只有几个难点;我英文不好,所以整句整句对于我都是难点,所以我就整句整句地用中文。(对于非难点的词,如“coolboy”,我还是用英文的)LOL。。。

The following is another one that follows the style of lingzis’ more recent new poem of

《Your eyes are my blue sky》

《My eyes are your blue sky》

My arms are your comfort harbor,
To give you sensation of a home;
My back is your wonderland,
To let you have fancy dreams.

My heart is warmer than yours,
‘Cause my feeling is deeper than your feeling;
My heart beats the same as your heart,
‘Cause we’ve got the identical rhythm.

My eyes are your blue sky,
And I see you freely fly;
My thought is your universe,
For you to acquire unlimited resources.

Shakespear asked "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?"
I answered: "Why not a blue sky?"

Shall I Compare Thee To A Summer's Day?
by William Shakespeare (1564-1616)

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Water is powerful. Gold is more powerful than water. Yet, apparently, poetry is even much more powerful than gold in terms of attracting young girls and boys. I wish I learnt this many years ago so that I might have become a poet instead of a physicist! :P

However, I recall I once wrote the following “poem” long time ago and I did not recall attracting anybody at the time :( :(

淡妆浓抹尽佳人,成才须读五车书。
书中自有黄金屋,书中自有颜如玉。



艰苦奋斗,努力使自己成为才子之后,佳人自然多多,也不用愁吃愁穿。嗯,coolboy现在还是应该闭关读书去了。 :) :)
