Cyrus smells soap by the sink.
A grown-up dries plates there.
A dish brush rests.
Bristles drip.
Steam warms his chin.
"These plates are dry now," the grown-up says.
A boy, Cyrus, stands at the counter.
A wet ring sits by the tap.
His elbows rest on smooth wood.
A pale damp ring holds flour dust.
He walks to the window desk.
A glass jar stands there.
A yellow flower leans inside.
A fog patch clouds the jar.
The grown-up points.
"That yellow is bright."
On the cold window, small drops cling.
He sets a light plastic cup down.
It sits on the damp ring and spins.
He slides it onto the board.
The board grips and stops it.
A small soap bubble drifts from the sink.
繁體中文 翻譯
Cyrus 在水槽邊聞到肥皂味。
一位大人正在那裡擦乾盤子。
一把洗碗刷放在旁邊。
刷毛在滴水。
蒸氣溫熱著他的下巴。
大人說：「這些盤子現在乾了。」
一個男孩 Cyrus 站在工作檯前。
水龍頭旁有一道濕圈。
他的手肘靠在光滑的木面上。
一圈淡淡濕痕黏著些許麵粉粉塵。
他走到窗邊的小書桌。
那裡放著一個玻璃罐。
裡面斜靠著一朵黃色的花。
一小片霧氣讓罐子發白。
大人伸手指了一下。
「那個黃色很亮。」
冷冷的窗面上黏著小水珠。
他放下一只輕的塑膠杯。
杯底落在濕圈上旋轉起來。
他把它推到砧板上。
砧板的摩擦力讓它停住。
一顆小小的肥皂泡從水槽那邊飄來。
