家常四画

银杏金扇飘洒，
瘦西风。
斜阳闪烁枝梢，
晚来同。
归人紧衣急步，
影匆匆。

热肴吊引空腹，
饭香盈室。
家人围坐餐桌，
嚼声笑语。
小康温饱共度，
暖屋欢馨。

夜静晴空皓月，
栏前茶韵。
稚儿眠香入梦，
眉眼含笑。
夫妻相视无言，
共守明晨。

晨曦透窗轻唤，
邻里苏醒。
梳洗整妆早膳，
日渐忙。
轻快携梦出门，
又一天。

家常四画 Four Homely Pictures

Ginkgo fans of gold drift,
a lean west wind chills.
Sunlight flickers through the treetops,
evening comes along.
Homebound folk tighten coats, quicken steps,
shadows hurry past.

Hot dishes tempt empty stomachs,
aroma fills the room.
Family gathers round the table,
chewing and laughter blend;
warm meals, modest living shared,
with cozy pleasure.

The clear, still night beneath a bright moon,
tea fragrance by the railing.
Children drift into sweet slumber,
eyes and brows smile gently.
Couples gaze in silent accord,
together guarding the new dawn.

Morning light streams through the window,
neighbors stir awake.
Washing, dressing, early breakfast,
the day begins in earnest.
Steps carry dreams into the world,
another day unfolds.
