六一前夜做了一个童话的梦应景,并尝试用英语把它写下来。它是我幻想中的Alice,在Tom's Dinner的旋律中起舞。
Last Night's Dream
I dreamed of meeting the Queen, Her Majesty,
Who lived on the top floor in the same building with me.
When I was exploring from ground to sky, I ran into her demesne.
Staff and guards were hustling and not a one noticed a stranger coming in.
I saw the old lady sit straight on a velvet couch and pour the tea by trembling hands,
Murmuring to herself “It’s certainly been a too long time since the last visit by whom-so-ever.”
I greeted her with manners and got swept up by the magnificence.
She sneered “Do you join me for the tea?”
Beside the marble table I sat and the exquisite cup filled.
It was filled three times and I swallowed every drop.
Finally,I covered it with my hands to the fourth.
There was no cake as I had dreamed.
So there was no need to drown my stomach in red.
Now is time for a “Thank You” and continue my adventure on other floors.
Swiftly I moved between stairs and was curious if I was going to
Meet another lady and some cake perhaps.
