English Original
Tess sits on the front step. Her bicycle leans beside her knee. The sun is warm today. A dry leaf drifts onto her hair. It lies there like a hat. Tess stays very still. A tiny bird hops closer. The pretty wing brushes her shoulder. The touch feels light and tickly. She keeps her body quiet.
Her pet kitten wanders outside. The kitten rubs against her ankle. Its fur is warm and soft. Tess almost stands but stops. She breathes slow and quiet. A light breeze rolls past. The handlebar taps her elbow. Behind her, the home door stays shut. The leaf stays on her hair.
繁體中文 Translation
泰斯坐在前階。 她的腳踏車靠在膝邊。 今天的陽光溫暖。 一片乾葉飄到她的頭髮上。 它像小帽子般停在那裡。 泰斯保持靜止。 一隻小鳥跳得更近。 那漂亮的翅膀擦過她的肩膀。 觸感輕且癢癢的。 她讓身體繼續安靜。
她的寵物小貓走到外面。 小貓在她腳踝旁磨蹭。 毛皮溫暖又柔軟。 泰斯差點站起來但又停住。 她慢慢而安靜地呼吸。 一股輕風掠過。 車把碰了碰她的手肘。 她身後的家門仍關著。 那片葉子依然停在她的頭髮上。
