喝口茶
喝口茶
在一个黯淡雨天的此刻看到网友Hui
Leng Tan 的“沉重”贴文
-
诗，更有感触。
和 Prof
Lee Tzu Pheng （李子平教授）曾有一次合作与一面之缘，这首诗除了道出了一位迟暮诗人的心境，也不正是许多人必经之心路历程？！
人生苦短，珍惜人情，有花堪折直须折，莫待无花空折枝？！有空常聚喝杯茶。
喝口茶
悠然喝口茶
没有人知道
何时会离去
也没有时间去品尝其中过程
所以
就悠然喝口茶吧
人生苦短但感觉很长
有太多的事要做
有太多的差错
挣扎想趁早努力坚强
却已到生命尽头
所以
就悠然喝口茶吧
朋友有些尚在
有些已经离去
亲人温情不一定长留
孩子会成长并远走高飞
世事难料
所以
就悠然喝口茶吧
最终，都是对天地间种种爱的理解
珍惜那些关爱你的人
微笑与呼吸间忘掉所有的忧虑
所以
就悠然喝口茶吧
当我死后
你会流泪
但我不会知道
为何不现在就和我分担悲哀？
（死后）我也不会看到你送的鲜花
何不现在就送给我？
（死后）你会赞美我
但我不会听到
何不现在就赞美我？
（死后）你会原谅我的过错
何不现在就忘掉？
你会怀念我
但我已感觉不到
何不现在就多关心
你后悔为何之前不多陪伴我？
何不现在就过来？
当你听到我离世的消息
虽然已经多年没来往，但你还是会来吊唁
现在就来看我吧！
原诗如下：
A
poem by Prof Lee Tzu Pheng (Singapore Cultural Medallion winner). She
was formerly in the English Literature Dept in NUS. This is a
powerful poem on human friendship and loving one another.
Sip
your Tea
Nice
and Slow
No
one Ever knows
when
it’s Time to Go,
There’ll
be no Time
to
enjoy the Glow,
So
sip your Tea
Nice
and Slow.
Life
is too Short but
feels
pretty Long,
There’s
too Much to do, so much going Wrong,
And
Most of the Time You Struggle to be Strong,
Before
it’s too Late
and
it’s time to Go,
Sip
your Tea
Nice
and Slow.
Some
Friends stay,
others
Go away,
Loved
ones are Cherished but not all will Stay.
Kids
will Grow up
and
Fly away.
There’s
really no Saying how Things will Go,
So
sip your Tea
Nice
and Slow.
In
the End it’s really
all
about understanding Love
For
this World
and
in the Stars above,
Appreciate
and Value who truly Cares,
Smile
and Breathe
and
let your Worries go,
So
Just Sip your Tea
Nice
and Slow."
When
I'm dead.
Your
tears will flow
But
I won't know
Cry
with me now instead.
You
will send flowers,
But
I won't see
Send
them now instead
You'll
say words of praise
But
I won't hear.
Praise
me now instead
You'll
forget my faults,
But
I won't know.....
Forget
them now instead.
You'll
miss me then,
But
I won't feel.
Miss
me now, instead.
You'll
wish You could have spent more time with me,
Spend
it now instead
When
you hear I'm gone, you'll find your way to my house to pay condolence
but we haven't even spoken in years.
Look
for me now.
*"Spend
time with every person around you, and help them with whatever you
have to make them happy, your families, friends and acquaintances.*
*Make
them feel Special because you never know when time will take them
away from you forever.*
Alone
I can 'Say' but together we can 'Talk'.
Alone
I can 'Enjoy' but together we can 'Celebrate'
Alone
I can 'Smile' but together we can 'Laugh'
That's
the BEAUTY of Human Relations.
We
are nothing without each other
So
Stay Connected!
