许其正：第二次──给外孙女若妍的童诗(7)

平常谁抱，你都好

今天却那么黏妈妈

一离开妈妈就哭就闹

这到底为的什么？

“原来是妈妈给她断奶

一岁又近两个月了

断奶没什么不对呀！”

“初生时医生为她断脐

是她第一次哭

因为日夜形影相随的人离开；

断奶她会认为是第二次

所以一离开妈妈就哭就闹

这没什么好奇怪的

小孩子虽然不会用讲话表示

但是她的心灵是很[敏感的

她害怕失去最亲近的人呀！”

啊，原来是这样！

小小的心灵就有这感应

我的泪遂在心海里

波涛汹涌……

The Second Time　 Hsu ChiCheng

Usually you are glad to be embraced by anyone

However, you keep worrying your mum today

You will cry if you cannot see mum even a moment

Why is it? Why?

“So her mum has decided to wean her

For a baby of one year and two months

weaning means nothing”

“She cried the first time

When the midwife out off her umbilical cord

Because it bound her and her mum closely together;

This is the second time

She cries because of weaning

There is no wonder

A baby is unable to express the feeling with words.

She is very sensitive

She is afraid to loss her most beloved one!”

O, so that’s how it is!

A little baby can feel so

The waves of teardrops

Surging in the sea of my heart… @
