何为诗？世间有谁知？

What is Poetry? Who knows?

并非玫瑰却芬芳四溢；

Not a rose, but the scent of the rose;

并非天空却虹横天际；

Not the sky, but the light in the sky;

并非流萤却微光熠熠；

Not the fly, but the gleam of the fly;

并非大海却涛声不息；

Not the sea, but the sound of the sea;

非我却令我耳聪目利，

Not myself, but what makes me

感知散文难绘之奇迹。

See, hear, and feel something that prose

何为诗？世间有谁知？

Cannot: and what it is, who knows?
