What is the original text of the poem "I am a Wayward Child"?

"I am a willful child" Gu Cheng

Maybe

I am a child spoiled by my mother

I am willful

p>

I hope

every moment

is as beautiful as a colored crayon

I hope

to be in my beloved Draw on white paper

Draw clumsy freedom

Draw an eye that will never shed tears

A sky

A piece of feathers and leaves belonging to the sky

A light green night and apples

I want to draw the morning

Draw the dew

The smiles that can be seen

Draw all the youngest ones

Painless love

Draw the imagination

My love

She has never seen the clouds

Her eyes are the color of the clear sky

She always looks at me

Never suddenly turn around

I want to draw distant scenery

Draw a clear horizon and water waves

p>

Draw many happy rivers

Draw hills——

covered with light downy hairs

I let them touch each other very hard Nearly

Let them fall in love

Let every acquiescence

Every quiet spring excitement

become a little flower's Birthday

I also want to draw the future

I have never seen her, and it is impossible

But I know she is beautiful

I Draw her autumn windbreaker

Draw the burning candles and maple leaves

Draw the many hearts that are extinguished because of loving her

Draw a wedding

Draw a festival where you wake up early -

It has glass candy paper on it

and illustrations of northern fairy tales

p>

I am a willful child

I want to erase all misfortunes

I want to paint all the windows on the earth

Let all eyes accustomed to darkness

be accustomed to light

I want to draw the wind

draw a mountain that is taller than the last

Draw the desire of the Eastern peoples

Draw the sea——

The boundless sound of joy

Finally, on the corner of the paper

p>

I also want to draw myself

Draw a koala

He is sitting in the dark jungle of Victoria

Sitting quietly On a quiet branch

In a daze

He has no home

No heart left far away

He only has, a lot of Many

Berry-like dreams

And big, big eyes

I am hoping

Thinking

But I don’t know why

I didn’t get a crayon

I didn’t get a colorful moment

I only have me

Mine Fingers and wounds

Only tear up the pieces

The beloved white paper

Let them look for butterflies

Let them start from Disappeared today

I am a child

A child who fantasizes about being spoiled by his mother

I am willful

1. Appreciation

In a sense, this poem is Gu Cheng's representative confession as a "fairy tale poet". It shows the poet's infinite fascination with innocent fantasy.

The reading of "I am a Wayward Child" can also enable us to understand another linguistic fact, that is, Gu Cheng's poems are not as "hazy" and "hazy" as many people have once attacked. "Obscure", on the contrary, it presents a fresh, smooth and bright style. All paragraphs start with "I" and develop some kind of subject-centered sentences, as if they are a child talking to himself when he is half asleep and half awake. This kind of language temperament is closely integrated with Gu Cheng's fairy tale spirit.
