【Because I could not stop for Death】

Because I could not stop for Death─
He kindly stopped for me─
The Carriage held but just Ourselves─
And Immortality.

We slowly drove─ He knew no haste
And I had put away
My labor and my leisure too,
For His Civility─

We passed the School, where Children strove
At Recess─in the Ring─
We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain─
We passed the Setting Sun─

Or rather─He passed Us─
The Dews drew quivering and chill─
For only Gossamer, my Gown─
My Tippet─only Tulle─

We paused before a House that seemed
A Swelling of the Ground─
The Roof was scarcely visible─
The Cornice─in the Ground─

Since then─’tis Centuries─and yet
Feels shorter than the Day
I first surmised the Horses’ Heads
Were toward Eternity─


﹝By Emily Dickson in 1863﹞

=======================================

這學期文學導讀課,我們從"詩"開始。

老實說,讀國外的詩跟讀文言文很像,就算每個單字都懂也不見得了解一句,
更別說有什麼涵義。

所以通常重要的詩老師會逐步帶著我們看。

今天就是上這一首。

我覺它的用字沒有很難,但喻意還不錯。

作者也是一位重要的詩人。

也許我離文學之路還挺遙遠的,但靠自己摸索也未嘗不是趣事。



言歸正傳,雖然自己一開始讀不大懂,但我喜歡它。

恩...我想我可能是老師講解過後才喜歡吧!!
也或許是因為他的用字比較好懂所以有感覺...
ㄏㄏ~~反正讀詩就是這樣,任何好壞的感受都在個人吧!!^^
