The high tide 漲潮/The little killdeer 小千鳥
Oct. 5 Mon. Sun
十月五日 星期一 晴
The rampant sea gets really mad, regardless the sky is in mild blue,
Fishermen of the shaky boat, waveringly ride the breakers through.
怒海真的生氣了, 無視晴空湛藍.
盪舟漁人, 搖擺衝破白浪濤天.

Worry about his master.

The tidbits of the farm-The little killdeer
When my niece KB was seven, she came to the farm with grandma. Rambling about the field, she liked to chase the geese and the goats. Strolling in the fruit tree area, she found a little killdeer stood on the pile of dirt alone. She lifted the bird gently and held it in her palm.
The little bird, did not know how to fly, was stark and stiff as a wooden bird.
KB made an attempt at playing with it, tapped the body, head and wings of it.
It showed no reaction at all.
She felt flat and let the little bird go.
Once it touched the ground, like the motor was on, its slender legs rolled out and made tracks swiftly.
農場小故事-小千鳥
外甥女K寶七歲時, 暑假隨外婆來農場. 她在農地四處逛, 追鵝趕羊. 走到果樹區, 發現一隻很小很小的小千鳥(Killdeer), 獨自站立土堆. 她輕輕將這小千鳥捧起, 放在手掌心.
小千鳥尚未學飛, 在K寶手掌上, 木頭鳥似的, 動也不動一下.
K寶的手指撥動, 輕拍牠身體, 頭與翅膀. 試著和牠玩.
小千鳥毫無反應.
K寶沒趣的將小千鳥放回地面.
誰知小千鳥的腳一觸碰到地, 像馬達上緊了發條, 細長的雙腿快速輪轉奔走, 一溜煙兒, 失去了蹤影.
