Appreciation of English Short Poems (1)
Arrow and Song Arrow and Song
( 1)
I shot an arrow in the air, I shot an arrow in the air,
It fell to the ground, I don't know where it is; It has fallen to the ground, I don't know where it went;
Because it flies so fast, because it flies so fast.
Unable to follow its flight. Vision can't keep up with its flight.
(2)
I sang a song to the air, I sang a song to the air,
It fell to the ground, I don't know where it is; It has landed and stopped, and I don't know where it is;
Because whose eyesight is so keen and strong, whose eyesight is so keen,
Can it fly with the song? Can keep up with the speed of singing?
(3)
A long time later, in an oak tree, a long time later, in an oak tree,
I found that the arrow was still not broken; I found it still intact;
This song, from beginning to end, this song, from beginning to end,
I found it in the heart of a friend again. I found it deeply imprinted in the heart of a friend.

Where did the boat go?
( 1)
Dark brown is a river, a dark brown river,
Gold is sand. Golden dune
It floats on both sides of the tree forever.
There are trees in my hands. It's been floating.
(2)
Green leaves float, green leaves float on the water,
A foam castle, a castle made of foam,
My boat is floating on the water.
Where will be our home? Where is the way home?
(3)
The river continues to flow
Through the mill, through the mill,
Along the valley, along the valley,
At the foot of the mountain. Then go down the mountain.
(4)
Along the river, the river flows downwards,
More than a hundred miles, more than a hundred miles long, or more,
Other children, other children
Will dock my boat. Will take my boat to shore.
By R.L. Stevenson

Flowers in the cracks in the wall
Flowers in the cracks in the wall, flowers in the cracks in the wall,
I pulled you out of the crack, I pulled you out of the crack.
I held you in my hand by the roots, put it in your hand, and brought you here by the roots.
Xiaohua-but if I can understand Xiaohua-if I can fully understand you.
What are you, root and everything, in short, I will know.
I should know what God and man are. What are God and Man?

Summer bed
( 1)
In winter, I get up at night. In winter, I get up early in the morning.
Get dressed by yellow candlelight. Wear clothes by yellow light.
It's the opposite in summer, and it's the opposite in summer.
I must sleep during the day. I must go to bed during the day.
(2)
I have to go to bed. Look, I have to go to bed. Look.
Birds are still jumping in the trees, birds are still jumping in the treetops,
Or hear the footsteps of adults, or hear the footsteps of adults.
Still walking past me in the street. Still walking past me in the street.
(3)
Don't you think it's difficult? Is this difficult for you?
When the sky is clear and blue, in the bright blue sky,
I really want to play, I really want to play,
You must go to bed during the day. But you have to sleep during the day?
By R.L. Stevenson

Baby's happiness
( 1)
I have no name; "I have no name.
I was only born two days ago. I was only born two days ago. 」
What should I call you? What should I call you?
I'm happy, "I'm happy,
Happiness is my name. Happiness is my name. 」
Sweet happiness comes to you! May sweet happiness come to you!

Quite happy! Beautiful joy!
Sweet joy, but two days ago. Sweet joy, only two days old.
I call you sweet happiness: I call you sweet happiness:
You smile, just smile,
I sang and sang,
Sweet happiness comes to you! May sweet happiness come to you!
William Blake
