the flimsy excuse


How I admire historians' candid comments and cold analyses of those who couldn't counter,
Envious of those who possess the power to gossip and rumor, and to get away with it all;
Tonight, Muse has found me again with thoughts unspeakable, palpable only inside -
Long I mourn my sister's sad departure, and yet flinch at the approach of a live one
Again recall Mother's lullaby in dreams, yet shy away from her frailty when it's alight
Father's voice is a cold wall for any attempts made during those sporadic nights

With a family of my own, between the joy of being a father and tear of a son astray,
How I long to share this moment of peace with Mom and Dad, with my only sister now;
And you see how ghosts that haunt me - gossiping tongues, a heavier yoke, and what
Money, if only i could have more, then predicaments would vanish, would go away
Alas, alas , now you see the flimsy excuse I have been holding on.

好物分享: 高雄橋邊鵝油香蔥


每到晚餐時刻,常會上演一齣-媽媽和家裏的小朋友一個追一個跑的吃(餵)飯的戲碼。這景像可能對許多爸媽來說,都不陌生。不過,有一回在別人推薦下買了鵝油油蔥酥。嘿!媽媽在熱騰騰的白飯上加上一小匙鵝油油蔥酥,再淋上點醬油,真是香噴噴;然後,偶們家那位小朋友居然自動跑來餐桌旁主動開口咧!就這麼簡單地用鵝油和醬油拌白飯,也能讓孩子吃的開心,真是料想不到。和天下父母分享。點選上頭照片會到賣家的網址(台中也有賣,而且距離不遠)。
