贴一首书上的诗，咱什么也不多说，搞点点击率，

The imminent fern

SHA YAN

The imminent fern

Neat and sleek

Tidy and small

Breaks in an descent sky

Lynn and lean

In a timid sleigh

It is vast in the sea

Link to the distant cliché

It grows

Grows small spores

Green and tidy

In a manner of its kneel

Skirt it wears

Sleigh it seizes

Glee it is immense

The imminent fern

The imminent fern

Full of spirit

Glimmer it clings

Vanish in the twilight it gleans

xhu

顶顶哈。。。。。。。

关于我的诗集，一个不认识的美国作家提供了一个文学评论，详见以下书评，

Imminent Ferns is a collection of thought provoking and insightful poetry
written by Chinese author, Sha Yan. While English is Sha Yan's second
language, he has the rare gift of setting onto paper the simple events,
common to all of us, in such a way that many of his words will strike a
chord with his thoughtful readers. Although, because of the language
barrier, some of the beauty and insights of Sha Yan's thoughts were lost, I
found several poems that held within their lines, shining jewels of insight
and beauty. I loved the final line of That Feminist Calls Upon Me that
reads:

"One day I woke up
looking at the poster on my wall
it was old I thought
maybe I would sell it."

And the profoundly simple line at the end of Whine, Lost and Found:
"Yes, I lost my poetry book,
But I did not loose myself."

I laughed aloud at the line in Seven Days in a Week:
"So,I found living without money is very boring."

One of my favorite lines in the book came from Mountain Home Mischief:
"Men descend
from grave to grave
and women cheer
while picking strawberries
pretend happiness in the grief."

And finally, this jewel from Intentions Clay:
"When twilight
Twilight shines
You spare some moments thinking
I would like to shine sometimes too
Why not, after all, you are human being."

I thank Sha Yan for sparing some moments to shine through this work of
poetry.
