趣味英文诗歌：一寸高 One Inch Tall

One Inch Tall

If you were only one inch tall , you'd ride a worm to school. The teardrop of a crying ant would be your swimming pool. A crumb of cake would be a feast  And last you seven days at least , A flea would be a frightening beast If you were one inch tall .  If you were only one inch tall , you'd walk beneath the door ,  And it would take about a month to get down to the store . A bit of fluff would be your bed, You'd swing upon a spider's thread ,  And wear a thimble on your head  If youwere one inch tall .  you'd surf across the kitchen sink upon a stick of gum you couldn't hug your mama , you'd just have to hug her thumb . you'd run from people's feet in fright ,  To move a pen would take all night ,  ( This poem took fourteen years to write --- Cause  I'm just one inch tall )

蚂蚁哭泣时的一滴泪将成为你的游泳池。 一点蛋糕屑能变成一场盛宴， 足够你至少吃上七天， 一只跳蚤就会是一头可怕的猛兽， 倘若你只有一寸高。 倘若你只有一寸高，便能穿越门下的缝隙， 而要行至商店则需要花上一个月的时间， 一小撮绒毛能变成你的温床， 你能在一根蜘蛛丝上玩秋千， 头上戴着顶针作为头盔， 倘若你只有一寸高。 你能乘着一块口香糖在厨房的水池里冲浪。 但你无法拥抱妈妈，你只能拥抱她的拇指。 你会惊恐地逃离人们的脚丫， 你需要花上一整夜的时间来搬动一支钢笔， （而写下这首诗则须花上十四年----- 因为我只有一寸高）
