Contrast on the Morning of Buddha’s Festival / 佛誕節早晨之反差


Contrast on the Morning of Buddha’s Festival

Old neat women,
Cuddle
Young , in
Gorgeous sun, in line,
Waiting for a vegetarian meal offered by Buddha
Next to the red wall.
My gloom
Grows up to be
Happiness

(Today is Lunar April. 8, said to be Buddha’s birthday. It’s a festival, I still remember how my grandma celebrated it with the Swallow, by worshipping at home with some special festive food, then adding it to the table.)

佛誕節早晨之反差

老婦人,
簇擁著
小孩兒, 在
燦爛的陽光下,
紅牆邊, 排隊
等候佛袓分派斋飯。
我的陰霾壯大為
快樂。

(今天是農歷四月初八佛誕節
