席慕蓉詩歌欣賞：一顆開花的樹A Blooming Tree
詩之靈魂在於情，情真意切纔有詩。席慕容的《一棵開花的樹》把一位少女的懷春之心表現得情真意切，震撼人心。
一顆開花的樹
——席慕容
如何讓你遇見我在我最美麗的時刻
爲這我已在佛前求了五百年
求佛讓我們結下一段塵緣
佛於是把我化做一棵樹
長在你必經的路旁
陽光下慎重地開滿了花
朵朵都是我前世的盼望
當你走近
請你細聽
那顫抖的葉是我等待的熱情
而當你終於無視地走過
在你身後落了一地的
朋友啊
那不是花瓣
那是我凋零的心
A Blooming Tree
——by Xi Murong
May Buddha let us meet in my most beautiful hours,
I have prayed for it for five hundred years.
Buddha made me a tree
By the path you may take.
In full blossoms I'm waiting in the sun
Every flower carrying my previous hope.
As you are near,
Listen carefully
The quivering leaves are my waiting zeal,
As you pass by the tree without noticing me.
My friend,
Upon the ground behind you
Is not the fallen petals
But my withered heart.
