My Wooded World

我的世界郁郁葱葱

As a child， I would sit and1）ponder，

at the wooded areas， for their beauty relaxed me.

The sway of the branches and2）whistling of the winds，

as if they were calling my name.

Then as I grew older， they were my3）retreat，

for the woods became my own world.

A world full of imagination， creativity，

4）resourcefulness， as well as inspiration.

I loved my5）domain， for no problems were too great，

the woods protected me from everything.

The branches would open as to hold me.

The animals， in their busy ways， stopped to welcome me.

It was this place， my wooded world， that I lived for.

It is that place that6）beckons me now.

For it was only there， in them woods， I felt truly free.

As free as I would feel when your love would surround me.

年幼的我，爱坐定沉思，

于树木繁密之处，因其美景放松了我的神思。

枝桠摇曳在轻啸的风里，

宛若在呼唤我的名字。

年少的我，将之视为静思之地，

因那树林是我独享的天地。

想象力飞扬，创造力漫弥，

机智无边，灵感充溢。

我热爱我的领地，因为在那没有解决不了的问题，

那片树林把我严密荫蔽。

枝桠伸展着要把我拥入怀里。

动物们为欢迎我停下了匆忙的步子。

我活着就为这片树林，我郁郁葱葱的天地。

而今朝我挥着手的正是那片林子。

只有在那儿，在那树林里，我方能感到真正的自由惬意。

那般自由惬意，一如你的爱将我萦绕不离。
