Imminent is a beautiful bride
To that point between the eyebrows to give you the gold dowry
To extract the marrow
Off the small wrist
All wedding gift to you
May I take your wheat
Soft real body
Light wind gently rocking
A steadily blossoming
You can hear the voice of a small wrist so crisp fall
You can hear the voice of the bone marrow that sweet budding
You can see my belly sinking red birthmark
Rounded a little bit of dew
Soaring gold capsules
Abstract to you, May, flying up, like a small bee
Wheat flower, I am your beautiful bride

【Review】 五月是中国中原大地麦子扬花的季节。那一片又一片,一浪又一浪的麦花向世人表明什么呢?表明汗水,表明劳作,表明奉献。无论如何,诗意的指向也是对一代又一代农民的歌颂。
歌颂劳动人民的新诗,老一代诗人那里不少见,但都是传统手法写出来的,给人的感觉粗糙而直白,几近口号,缺乏美感。诗人的这一首却别取蹊径,意象新颖而美丽,语言细腻而真切,韵味深情而飘逸。将对人民深挚的爱与同情,诗化为新颖而美丽的意象来说话,让象征劳动人民的奉献精神的麦花“我”来说话,并拟为“新嫁娘”这样的一相情愿的身份对五月说话。“五月”被拟为第二人称“你”,越发显得劳动人民对社会对历史对他人的真挚博大情怀。
