A Loving Friend 挚友
-an improvised pentameter iambic sonnet
即兴五音步抑扬格十四行诗/排律

A loving friend is one who gives hello.
An ex-friend drifts apart before we know.
A coward's scared of giving stuff in voice.
A hero speaks in public out of choice.
A texter acts as babe in cozy arms.
A daring speaker brings the group alarms.
A hopeless soul is one who waits for miracles.
A hopeful maker has the water ripple.
A breeze is welcome, giving moves in air.
A shower charms a swamp for tender care.
A sudden rainbow opens narrow minds.
The chirps in quiet woods are beacons to find.
A world to crave for bonding won’t be lonely.
A loner showing sound survives the milky.
灵犀缱绻此情高,
默默前人去去遥。
懦者叽叽屏后戏,
龙吟地裂动云霄。
华洋洒洒婴亲母,
口水涛涛雨去骚。
绝望之灵穷等迹,
神奇腐朽愚公挑。
微风爽众移浊气,
阵雨怡人静暑宵。
天际彩虹开混沌,
深林啾鸟路无劳。
蓝星尽可万船锚,
寂者一声百事昭。
