每月双语一诗 (2013.4)
积木游戏
就在这片
心的废墟上
他们曾亲手
用坚实多彩的
方块
搭建起一座
巍峨辉煌的神庙
至於它後来
究竟是被一只玩厌了的手
轻率无聊地一下子推倒
或因其中一个负重的方块
禁不起风风雨雨的侵蚀
而颓然塌陷
年代久远
已湮灭不可辨析
THE GAME OF BLOCKS
It was right here
on this ruin of hearts
they built with their own hands
using sturdy colorful blocks
a magnificent lofty temple
As to what happened later
whether it was carelessly pushed over
by a bored hand
or one of the blocks
was so eroded by the elements
that it crumbled under its weight...
since it was such a long time ago
nobody could really tell

Good metaphor. I was trying to figure out what it was referred to. Of course it can be alluded to diferent things by different readers which is a plus in poetry. One thing brings to mind is that nothing can be built strong on "心的废墟上".
Enjoyed.
