Stone Bird-英文詩詞集錦

　　by Pattiann Rogers

　　I remember you. You‘re the one

　　who lifted your ancient bones

　　of fossil rock， pulled yourself free

　　of the strata like a plaster figure

　　rising from its own mold， became

　　flesh and feather， took wing，

　　arrested the sky.

　　You‘re the one who， though marble，

　　floated as beautifully as a white

　　blossom on the pond all summer，

　　who， though skeletal and particled

　　like winter， glimmered as solid as a bird

　　of cut crystal in the icy trees.

　　You are redbird—sandstone

　　wings and agate eyes—at dusk.

　　You are greybird—polished granite

　　and pearl eyes—just before dawn，

　　midnight bird with a reflective

　　vacancy of heart like a mirror

　　of pure obsidian.

　　You‘re the one who flew down

　　to that river from the heavens，

　　as if your form alone were the only

　　holy message needed. You were alabaster

　　then in the noonday sun.

　　Once I saw you rise without rising

　　from your prison pedestal

　　in the garden beneath the lime tree.

　　At that moment your ghost

　　in its haunting permeated every

　　regality of the forest with light，

　　reigned with disdain in thin air

　　above the mountain， sank in union

　　with the crosswinds of the sea.

　　I remember you. You‘re the one

　　who entered in through my death

　　as if it were an open window

　　and you were the sound of the serenade

　　being sung outside for me， the words

　　of which， I know now， are of freedom

　　cast in stone forever.
