英文小诗《Blue Mountain‪》‬ Max冬冬

Blue MountainAll night we climbed the mountain,Excited in the dark, The flare from the small lamps up aheadLooked like a tiny spark.We reached the top just as the sunWas wiping the sleep from its eyesAnd sending out red fingersTo investigate the skies.It suddenly leapt out of bed,Wrapped the world in an orange flame,And we gasped in wonder at the sight,This was why we came.We watched the shy blush spread acrossThe face of the bashful sky,We saw the cars like tiny antsIn the roads below, crawl by.We heard the birds chirp awake,Saw them flit across to plunderThe rose-apples and the hog-plum tree.Heard a waterfall roar like thunder.We washed our faces with the dew,Breathed the perfume of the Four O’Clock,Watched a lizard climb a stone to sun itself,Then scuttle away in shock.We headed back down the mountain,The sun was wide-awake and bright,Our legs were tired and heavy,But inside, our hearts were light.
