Three Poems of Zhangjiajie

十里畫廊寫真

一幅

　緊

　接

　著

　一幅

山承著眾樹，披著雄奇

直立雲霧間

為各種形象下註解

雲霧則以其薄紗身段

不住遮護、嬉戲、摩挲

在山間，在谷中

建構縹緲、朦朧

或遠，或近

或高，或低

處處美景

令人目不暇接

它們全部都是

一幅幅山水國畫

一件件天然雕塑作品

一首首無聲的詩

一幅

註：張家界位於湖南西北部，設有大陸第一座國家森林公園，1992年主要風景名勝區武陵源並為聯合國教科文組織列入「世界自然遺產名錄」。「奇、奧、秀、幽、野」為一般對該區的評贊。十里畫廊為其中一景點，前後約十里，沿途美景如國畫大師在此舉辦山水畫展。

Depiction of Ten-Li-Long Painted Corridor

One

Is

Closely

Next

To another

The mountain bears the weight of woods, towering

The clouds, imposing and extraordinary

Acting as the footnote to images of all sorts

The mist as thin as gauze

Keeps covering, painting and caressing

To create mistiness

In the mountain and valleys

Wonderful views everywhere

Or far or near

Or high, or low

Let the eye can not take it all in

All are landscape paintings

All are natural sculptures

All are soundless poems

One

Is

Closely near

To

Another

Note: Zhangjiajie is located in northwest of Hunan Prov, in which the first State Forest Part of mainland of China was set up. In 1992 its major scenic spot “Wulingyuan” was placed in the list of “Natural Heritages of World”, named for its “extraordinary, deep, pretty, quiet and wild”. “Ten-Li-Long-Painted Corridor” is a scenic spot in it, which is ten Li long, and the scenery along the road seems as if a lot of traditional Chinese painters were holding as art show.

增長

——觀湖南張家界黃龍洞鐘乳石有感

即使百年才增長那麼一點點

也沒什麼關係

日長月久，它終究會

長大

壯美

成熟

別嫌慢

急不來的

任何偉大的作品本來就

要慢工才出細活

不信？

那根直頂向天的定海神針可是為證！

Growth

–Impressions on the stalactites in Yellow Dragon Cave in Zhangjiajie, Hunan Prov.

Even growing a bit in one hundred years

It doesn’t matter

As time goes by, they will grow up

Turn beautiful and magnificent

Get ripe

Sooner or later

Don’t complain that they grow slow

It is no use being impatient

Any great works

Is used to growing slow

If you don’t believe

The Magical Needle Guarding the Sea can be used as proof!

緣溪行

——在張家界緣琵琶溪、金鞭溪穿行山中

緣溪行

迎向

舒爽山風

緣溪行

迎向

碧綠叢樹

緣溪行

迎向

雄奇群山

緣溪行

迎向

前方……

哈，前方有奇景

Walking Along a Stream

–Walking along Pipa Stream and Golden-Whip Stream in Zhangjiajie

Walking along the stream

Against

A cool mountain breeze

Walking along the stream

Towards

A dark green woods

Walking along the stream

Towards

The mighty and imposing peaks

Walking along the stream

To

The distance…

Aha, there are wonderful views ahead @
