Dear Friends:

Wish you a happy Chinese New Year.
May we all have the courage to face the adversaries, like
蘇軾 once did.

北宋蘇軾  ( 1037 - 1101)【定風波】詞:

莫聽穿林打葉聲,何妨吟嘯且徐行。竹杖芒鞋輕勝馬,誰怕?一簑湮雨任平生。  料峭
春風吹酒醒,微冷,山頭斜照卻相迎。回首向來蕭瑟處,歸去,去無風雨也無晴。

Nine hundred years later, Robert Frost echoed 蘇軾 's 定風波.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

BY ROBERT FROST  (1874 - 1963)

Whose woods these are I think I know.   
His house is in the village though;   
He will not see me stopping here   
To watch his woods fill up with snow.   

My little horse must think it queer   
To stop without a farmhouse near   
Between the woods and frozen lake   
The darkest evening of the year.   

He gives his harness bells a shake   
To ask if there is some mistake.   
The only other sound’s the sweep   
Of easy wind and downy flake.   

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.   
But I have promises to keep,   
And miles to go before I sleep,   
And miles to go before I sleep.

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
