诗词西韵 (20) The seed

        振公子 （2018 年 5 月 19 日）

In spring, the seed is sowed in the ground.

One day it bursts out and looks around,

Absorbing all sunshine with its leaves.

It grows into thousands ears and sleeves.

In autumn it yields countless kernels,

Filling up the barn where by windows

The birds fly back and forth from the field.

Now who recalls the hurts life instilled?

Out of death was a new life brought forth.

Denying oneself shows the true worth.

Be faithful to the inner calling,

And care little to what’s fleeting.

西江月 种子颂

      振公子 （2017 年 10 月 28 日）

春末孤身入土，秋初千穗朝阳。稻香满地笑盈仓，小鸟田间鸣唱。

出死入生谁记，舍身成义何伤。本心不负任炎凉，几度阴晴俯仰。
