許其正：水仙花
Narcissus（fotolia）
沒有一樣甜果不需經過艱辛苦楚，沒有一種成功不需付出大把的努力和犧牲。
嚐過多少辛苦，花費多少心血，經歷多少時日，一朵水仙花才能成就？
麟莖的培養是不容易的。時間，三年或五年，至少兩年或三年，是必需的。麟莖越是碩大，花越是開得潔白清香。
是一種展覽！是一種展覽哪！
可不是嗎？看！在那綠絨絨的葉片間，一瓣瓣長條花瓣，展列平伸，那麼潔白、純白、粉白！
那是甚麼？想是雪片吧！想是霜條吧！想是白色毛玻璃吧！抑是白玉？白色如意？
顯得那麼高貴，那麼柔和，那麼美！加上清香如無數隱身的精靈，四溢而出，燈蛾撲火似地撲人鼻息，叫人心折，引人心賞、喜愛、讚美！
對麟莖來說，它是全心全意全力地奉獻支持的，絕不吝嗇，也不求代價。只要花開得好，它一無怨尤，甚至於自己消瘦，老死了，它仍心甘情願，義無反顧，默默無言，奉獻支持。
讚美和稱頌，於麟莖何有哉？更何況沒有讚美和稱頌？它仍然默默地奉獻，全心全意全力地支持！
Narcissus Hsu ChiCheng
None of any sweet fruit need not come from hardships and pains, none of any success need not offer great strive and sacrifice.
How much bitter must taste, how much painstaking care must waste, how much time must experience, can a narcissus achieved?
It』s not easy to cultivate a bulb. May it needs three or five years, at least two or three years. The more the bulb is large the more the flower is pure white and delicate scent while open.
It』s an exhibition! It』s an exhibition!
Why does it not? Lo, thus pure white, thus pure clean white, thus chalky white, the green soft leaves unfolded and stretched, one by one of the long petals!
What is it? It most probably the snowflake! It most probably the frost twig! It most probably the white frosted glass! Or is it the white jade? The white scepter?
It appears so noble, so soft, so beautiful! Besides, its delicate scent as numberless spirits lie concealed, flooded, assails the nostrils as the pyrrharctic Isabella flaps into the fire, moves one』s heart, arouses one』s appreciation, love and praise.
As to the bulb, it』s devoted and hold out whole heart, without any mean, and also no ask for price. Just for the flower opens in good way, it hasn』t any complaint, even thin itself, even dead, it』s willing, it is bounden duty to do, silently, devoted and hold out.
As to bulb, what about praise and eulogize? Let along there isn』t praise and eulogize? It still devotes silently, holds out whole heart!@
