故事內容
English 原文
Cool moss presses Bea's knees.
Her hands rest on her legs.
Short green threads spring under her jeans.
A pale dry ring edges the flat rock.
Valley air stays cool on her cheek.
Her father sits on the rock.
His backpack stays open beside him.
A water bottle stands by his foot.
Its loose cap rests near it.
A folded napkin lifts a corner.
A tiny crumb rides the fold.
He says, "The water runs fast today."
Leaves drift past.
Bea watches a leaf spin.
The current turns it near a pebble.
Sunlight flashes on the water.
The glare hides the leaf.
Bea leans a little to the left.
The leaf drifts into shade.
The beetle clicks.
It crosses the fallen log.
A sports card sticks out from the backpack.
A soccer player smiles on it.
A rainy smell stays in the air.
The napkin lifts once more.
The crumb slides, then stops at a crease.
Under Bea's knees, the moss holds two dents.
繁體中文 翻譯
涼涼的苔蘚貼著Bea的膝蓋。
她的手放在大腿上。
短短的綠色苔毛在牛仔褲下微微彈起。
扁平的岩石邊上有一圈淡淡的乾痕。
谷地的空氣貼在她的臉頰上，帶著涼意。
她的爸爸坐在岩石上。
他的背包打開著，放在身旁。
他腳邊立著一個水壺。
鬆開的瓶蓋放在旁邊。
折起的餐巾掀起一角。
一小粒麵包屑隨著摺痕滑著。
他說：「今天的水流很快。」
幾片樹葉飄過。
Bea看著一片葉子旋轉。
水流在一顆小卵石旁讓它轉動。
陽光在水面上一閃一閃。
眩光遮住了那片葉子。
Bea的身子稍微向左傾。
葉子飄進陰影裡。
甲蟲發出喀喀聲。
它越過倒木。
背包裡伸出一張運動員的卡片。
卡片上有位足球員在微笑。
空氣裡留著下雨過的氣味。
餐巾又掀起一下。
麵包屑滑動一下，停在一道摺痕處。
Bea的膝蓋下方，苔蘚留下兩個淺淺的凹痕。
