Nina stood by the small planted bed with grandmother.

A wet-earth smell rose from the soft dark soil.

A small stone sculptor statue stood near the hedge.

The small wooden watering can rested at the edge.

"I can pour now," Nina said softly.

A slow soft stream fell through the small rose-head.

The soft dark soil held it, then let it sink.

A soft tick sounded from the hedge.

A small dry branch dropped onto the stone edge.

Drops touched it and linked into a thin line.

The line ran along the branch to the path.

Dew mixed with dust and made tiny brown dots.

柔軟的黑土先托住水，然後讓它下滲。

一株小小的豆芽立在光滑石板路旁。

樹籬那邊傳來輕輕的一聲響。

「葉子亮亮的。」妮娜睜大眼說。

最後一滴從噴頭落下，輕點在泥土上。
