故事內容
English 原文
Tap-tap comes from the slate.
Soft taps sound.
Roslyn kneels by the table.
Her palm rests on the frame.
A fresh line holds its edge.
Beside it, a pale haze stays.
A dry wool scent sits by the eraser.
The grandmother sorts chalk in the tray.
Small dust motes float in light.
Roslyn watches them and steps over.
They pass the chalk tray lip.
Her eyes seek the blue piece.
It hides under longer sticks.
The stub sits in a groove.
"Blue is here," the grandmother says.
Roslyn slides two long pieces aside.
She pinches the short blue stub.
It lifts with a light scrape.
A pale mote drifts to the slate.
Roslyn follows and holds the stub.
She draws a slow bend line.
She adds a small dream cloud.
At one side, a candle shape forms.
It is on the grandmother's board.
No flame, just a neat shape.
Roslyn stands still by the slate.
The sharp bend holds beside the haze.
繁體中文 翻譯
板面傳來喀喀聲。
輕輕的敲擊響著。
Roslyn 跪在桌旁。
她的手掌貼住木框。
一條新線保持銳利邊緣。
旁邊一片淡霧留著。
橡皮的羊毛味在這裡。
外婆在托槽裡整理粉筆。
小粉塵在光裡漂著。
Roslyn 看著它們並走過去。
它們越過托槽的下緣。
她的眼睛在找藍色粉筆。
它躲在長粉筆底下。
短小粉筆卡在溝槽裡。
「藍色在這裡，」外婆說。
Roslyn 推開兩支長粉筆。
她捏起那段藍色短筆。
它帶著輕輕刮聲抬起。
一粒淡粉塵往板面飄去。
Roslyn 跟著走並握住短筆。
她畫出一條慢弧線。
她加上一朵夢雲。
一旁出現一個蠟燭形。
那是在外婆的板上。
沒有火焰，只有整齊外形。
Roslyn 站在板前不動。
銳利的弧線貼著那片淡霧。
