Leaf, Bark, and the Drifting Page - 適合初學者的英文短篇故事，含中譯與發音

Cool moss touches Cyrus's ankle.

He sits still beside the stream.

Pale light dances on flowing water.

Water hums softly.

A round leaf spins past his toes.

Tiny bubbles swirl around the leaf.

A thin piece of bark drifts after it.

The bark bumps the rock: think, think, think.

Air stays cool.

Across the water, a loose page slides near.

Light stripes move across its damp corners.

A bold blue number fills the page.

Ink lines wobble with each ripple.

Soft ripples push the page sideways.

The shape holds the idea of a boat.

A small green frog lands and clings.

涼涼的苔蘚碰觸到賽勒斯的腳踝。

他靜靜坐在小溪旁。

斑駁的光線在流動的水面跳動。

水聲輕輕嗡鳴。

一片圓圓的葉子從他腳尖前旋過。

細小氣泡繞著葉子打轉。

一塊細薄的樹皮隨後漂過。

樹皮撞上岩石，嗒、嗒、嗒。

空氣依然清涼。

對岸一張鬆脫的紙頁滑近。

光條在潮濕的紙角移動。

紙上是一個醒目的藍色數字。

墨線隨著每一次漣漪晃動。

柔軟的水波把紙推向一邊。

那形狀帶出一艘小船的念頭。

一隻小青蛙跳到紙上，緊緊貼住。
