【我们也爱你】
文/天朝玉
三个月的恶心呕吐
终于熬了过去
超声波视屏上
突然像黑洞般无望 神秘
名字都想好了
两条细浅的红线
仿佛两道射向哀伤暗穴的强光
宣布了麦克的到来
第一次去看产科医生的路上
我把车停在路边 哭了
两次被送去医院 因为假产
一整夜的挣扎后 又被遣回
我知道 他很敏感
每次弹钢琴给他听
他便停止胎动 立刻变得安静
麦克从小喜欢小动物
清澈的大眼睛 似乎一瞥
便将周围的世界与人心一览无余
有一次爸妈在车里争吵
妈妈哭了 五岁的他在车后座
轻轻地说：“我们爱你”
今天 麦克十四岁了
嗓音变粗 个子终于超过了妈妈
就要成为地区年龄最小的雄鹰童子军
在妈妈眼里 他已经修成了大器
只因为 他敏感善良的心地
生日快乐，麦克
我们也爱你
【We Love You Too】
By Tian Chao Yu
Three months of nausea and vomiting
finally over. the ultrasound screen
suddenly looked like a blackhole
mysterious, hopeless
I have already decided the name for the baby
Two thin red lines, as if two strong beams
shot at a dark cave of sadness
announced Michael’s arrival
on my way to the obstetrician for the first time
I parked the car on the side of the road, and cried
Sent to the hospital twice, due to a false labor
I was sent back after struggling all night
he was sensitive, I knew
every time I played piano for him
He stopped kicking, and
became quiet immediately
Michael loved small animals since he was a child
his big clear eyes, as if he could see through
the world around him and people’s heart at one glance
one time, mom and dad were quarreling in the car
mom cried, five-year-old Michael in the back seat
gently comforted mom: “We love you”
Today, Michael turns fourteen years old
his voice became deeper and
he has finally surpassed mom in height
soon to be the youngest Eagle Scout in the region
in his mother’s eyes, he has already made it
only because he has a sensitive and kind heart
Happy birthday, Michael
we love you, too
