一棵树 A Tree Poem by Qi Zhao

阳台外的一棵树

于我，是天气变换的征兆

她提醒我信用卡的还款时间

和女儿学校的课程表

这种树在镇上不少

她学着江南的口吻

预告我的运道

优雅也好，绝望也好，都无所谓

她像一条横幅，上面写着

朋友，微笑，好好过活才是正道



A Tree



A tree off the balcony

A sign of the weather

Remind me the time to pay credit card

And my daughter Kiki's syllabus

This type of trees are all over the town

Whose tone after the south of Yangtze

Forecasting my fate and fortune

Grace or despair, don't care

Like a banner, it reads

Pal, smile and live well
