第 25 篇：A Russian Poem

Since childhood, Anton had often 背诵d poems, accompanied by pianists and violinists, at wedding ceremonies before brides and bridegrooms exchanged rings. Gradually, he found writing poems the most appropriate way to convey his joy and 悲伤. When his poem Contradictory Blank won him a national championship and a 奖学金 to the Moscow University from a sponsor, he was just an unknown librarian. After getting his 文凭, he devoted his life to writing poems. Using concrete but 灵活的 language and the minimum of words is his style. He tried out different patterns and preferred nursery rhyme in particular. The following is a translation of one of his works made up of 3 sections: Little sparrow with heavy load,Ran out of energy and very cold;No compass and all sweat salty,Can you go through the endless darkness?Little balloon let out by the thread,Flew over cottages and was very glad;With warmth transformed from sunlight,He said he could forever fly;Take it easy, little balloon;Don’t tease the sparrow with his wound;On the bare branch and have a rest;This diamond heart will eventually get success.
