在 這 樣 一 個 夜 晚
..In Such A Night Like This

在這樣一個夜晚
風輕吻樹梢
不多發出一點聲音
萬物都已睡著
沒有白日的嘆息

陪伴於夜
他遙遠如月下
孤獨的帳篷
開敞沙漠中
最遙遠 .獨自閃爍的一顆星

可曾意識
彼端交熾的戰火
烈焰不止 .砲聲打亮夜如日
苟延迄今
流血至此

他不多話
酣聲很柔
在這樣一個
風輕吻樹梢
萬物都已熟睡的夜

*
Haworthia, for Adrian Hardy Haworth (19 Apr. 1765- 24 Aug. 1833), English plantsman amateur botanist and etomologist, author of books on succulent plants, bulbs, butterflies and moths.


黃金柏 Cupressus* macrocarpa 'Goldcrest', Crossandra* infundibuliformis, '粉團' 朱槿 Hibiscus* rosa-sinensis 'Crested', Rosa 'Bianca'

* Crossandra, from Greek krossoi, fringe, and aner, male, referring to the fringed stamens.

* Hibiscus, Greek name for mallow.


* Cupress,
from Greek kuparissos, a word taken from an unknown near Eastern language, allied to the Hebrew gopher, the name of Cupressus sempervirens ( Mediterranean Cypress/ Graveyard Cypress/ Pencil Pine 原產地中海氣候區的 絲柏.)

The common name comes from Old French cipres and that from Latin cyparissus, which is the latinisation of the Greek κυπάρισσος, kypárissos.

In Greek mythology, Cyparissus or Kyparissos (Greek: Κυπάρισσος, "cypress") was a boy beloved by Apollo. The favorite companion of Cyparissus was a tamed stag, which he accidentally killed with his hunting javelin as it lay sleeping in the woods. The boy's grief was such that it transformed him into a cypress tree, a classical symbol of mourning. The myth is thus aetiological in explaining the relation of the tree to its cultural significance. (wiki)
