一一谭宇（重庆）

父亲的脊背

被六月的太阳

烤成腊黄

远远望去

像块老腊肉

都想啃上一口

父亲用汗水洗净

告诉阳光

他即使变成一块老腊肉

也只想

让老婆孩子们

最先品尝

New Year's Day, Peony and Cured Pork (Original)

By Tan Yu (Chongqing)

Father's back

Baked by the June sun

Turns cured and sallow

From a distance

It looks like a slab of cured pork

That makes everyone want to take a bite

Father rinses it with his sweat

And tells the sun

Even if he turns into a slab of cured pork

He only wishes

That his wife and children

Will be the first to taste it
