花年 A Flowering Year

近来关于花的话题越来越多,影影绰绰的想象和暗喻.说的念的都是花,仿佛闻的见花蜜渗流出来.说:“honey that slides”.然而从这个阳台要看见花是很稀罕的事.黑鸦鸦延绵的瓦屋拉到很远的地方,天气还不到很潮湿的时候,只有檐缝里站起几根新草来.自个儿看似顽强的绿着.但压迫他们的冬天已然是过去颇远了,大概花也在来的路上了吧.这里是北方,不是南国,很多时候只有"亭亭白桦,幽幽碧空”.

所幸的是春天已经不远,这几天阳光都特别地烘暖,风里送来遣锩的暗示,让人遐想如果阳台下边这一大片黑瓦变成盖满花的野地,花的烂漫颜色岂不会像浪一样涌进阳台到屋子里,那恐怕可以叫蜜屋了吧,就算"家徒四壁"也可以"篷筚生辉"了.即使没有亲见,眼里也开满了花.简直是"满眼流丽的微斜,忘却一瞬的凋谢.”想象那样一个安逸清谧的早晨,同样的国土上,街上对面走过来的人对你微笑说早安,心里很静也很快乐.没有真花也可以,一句顶上万紫千红.
.
走在嫩蕊里,走在天上,而花香顺流下来.这个花的一年!

The markaenian zodiac

369000000963696396963 marears ago, years passed by randomly. 写到唯, the ruler, wanted to get the years “ordered”. He would choose animals. Every animal wanted to be in the zodiac, and he didn’t know which to choose! He only wanted 13 in the zodiac, at most. he thought and he thought. Finally, he got an idea. He would have a race to cross the Marcific Ocean. They could go in air, water surface, or in water. There were rules, though. Every single animal boasted that they could be in the zodiac. “Nu olude teer de jhoulou. I could beat the nyuku.” Said A urinvalinoc. “Jhv! Nu~ll teer kou! Ha! I’ll beat you!” Shouted a pqueramon. “Nu~p rhvpru dajh llnur wmeer! I’m faster than light speed!” Yelled a bawk. The ruler was very angry. He shouted,” Khep uvp wlll tee jhellde deouho. This race will be held tommorow.” Vr?!”"oueewm” said 写到唯. “You must exersize TODAY AND TOMOROW MORNING.That’s it!”" Vr?!”The markaenians said again. “Nu oudle jur thvr. I could not do that.” said a roquera. The next day, at 8:901:970A.M.M, the race started. They all swam as fast as they could. While the kukukokuko was sitting on the urinvalinoc’s back, Mr. kukukokuko easily got first. The urinvalinoc didn’t see the little bawk flying above him, so the urinvalinoc got third and the bawk got second. Just as the one after the urinvalinoc, the nyuku, swiming like crazy, up popped the pqueramon and got fourth. The nyuku was still struggling when pqpquoerong, gooslinsoand, and roquera passed him. After the 3 passed him he was 8th.They quickly got to the charts. One by one, the markaenians came. Some swam, some flied, and some jumped. Here’s the list:

1.kukukokuko Rode
2.bawk Flew
3.urinvalinoc Swam
4.pqueramon Dug
5.pqpquoerong Flew

An Excuse

“Jaraoona Korio! Why are you so late for school?!?”
Asked Mrs. Hookalena
“I am sorry I am late for school
And forgot my homework.”
I said.
“I was doing homework
When a manaconda
Started sliding up my side.
I ran down the stairs
And found me by
45 savage trolls.
They wanted to eat me
As a gourmet meal,
But I was too swift for them.
I ran with all my might and I
Forgot where I was going.
I fell into quickmarand
When an eagle saved my life.
But it brought me to Markarctica
When a Malizzard
Made me sneeze.
He dropped me
And I fell onto wet ice.
I managed to grab hold of
A speedy narwhal,
But 35 unidentified swimming objects
Shot Mullets at him
And he flung me to
Bloongars.
I figured I could
Jump really high and
Shot myself back to earth.
It was a frightening
Experience and I landed somehow in China
Where I found a
Submarine.
I rocketed back to San Diego
And I felt very hungry
So I went to McDonald’s
And ordered an 80 pc.
Chicken fries.
I was bloated and I
Bounced back to
Los Mangeles.
I visited my friend
Saloooganret Hakaladafa.
I found a rocket and zoomed
To a place called Markhawk
There was a mar.
I rode on it and came to school
Right here.
Right here.
I know I am very late and I notice there is only
45 marcends of school.”
“Very well”
said my teacher.
I will have to talk to your parents
About this.”

The platinum touch

I just happened to see Mr. Longneck Jr. walking down the road. I asked him if he could tell me a story, or a legend. Well, he first listed all the stories he knew. “The rekoned redhead, Uni and the knight, the story of Ipep and Niddhoggr, and the platinum touch…” I wanted to hear a magical story so I asked for “The platinum touch”.

“Well”, he began, ” There once was a greedy king named King Platinumonio. He simply adored Platinum. And he loved being king because his crowns are made of platinum! When he was small, he liked music and flowers. But now, when he heard music, he heard platinum coins hitting each other. And when he looked at flowers, he imagined platinum baubles. And if there was something he liked better it was his daughter, Platinumessica. Platinumessica loved the royal pets, a platinum retriver, a snowy owl, a platinumfish, a platinum finch, and the cat, Platinumlocks. Once he woke up, after breakfast, he would play with Platinumessica for about 3 hours. Then he would go to the basement, where all his treasures were. There was a white apple, platinum trophies, platinum wands, platinum-covered plants, and millons upon millons of others. (I am NOT exaggerating.)

One day, as he looked into his platinum trophy, looking at his funny reflection and saying, ‘How happy am I!’ As he was going on to say ‘The wonderful life of King Platinumonio!’

He did not even say 3 words when a stranger said, ‘ Are you really happy?; I could grant you one wish.’ The king looked back to reveal a man with a large, thin, agony cape.

‘Are you?’ the man repeated. ” The man was too suprised to speak. “Yo do floccinaucinihilipipification.”

The king gathered his strength. “What?” He asked. “You do floccinokihilipifipication.” The man repeated. ” Yo useless cause you ain’t talkin’.” ” O.K. Enough jabbering. now I want…” He thought of the stories he had read, knowing not to be foolish.

“I am very bored at trying to gain platinum. I wish that everything I touched was platinum!”

“Well then,” said the stranger. ” Yo’ll find yo pow’r when first lite breaks through yo window.” With a blinding FLASH!! and BANG!! the stranger disappeared.

That night, he couldn’t sleep. He was too exited. The next morning, he (somehow) woke up. He noticed that his sheets had been turned into platinum thread! His alarm was ringing he turned it off, and it became platinum! He came down to eat breakfast. He held a hot potato. It became nice, hot PLATINUM LUMP! He tried some tea. It changed into Molten platinum!!

“Bleeccchh!!!” He yelled. Platinumlocks brushed his feet. It was solid platinum. Platinumlocks ran to him. She wanted to hug him and say “HELLO!” But when she was on the O! she turned into platinum.

The man appeared, for the second time. He samiled. “ARE YOU HAPPY NOW ?!?!”

He boomed. “No!No!Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! I have made a mistake. Can you reverse the spell?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!”

“Yes, If you follow these directions. You have to punch them to reverse the spell.” He eventually punched them and, after crying 973 cm of tears, they lived happily ever after.

Now whenever King Platinumonio sees platinum, he gets a huge stomachache. Then he loved gold and changed the people’s and animal’s names.

There was his daughter, Marigold. He painted the Platinumfish gold, and it became a goldfish, while he painted the dog, became a golden retreiver, painted the bird, became a goldfinch, and painted the cat.The cat HATED paint so… you get the idea. Well, the cat’s name is now Goldilocks.

The magic rock

Let’s just say that we are in the land of English-speaking animals.

Well, as Mr. Tallhead J. Longneck Jr. was striding across the ground, he saw a rock. He loved collecting rocks, but he had never seen one like this. It was red, round, smooth, it almost looked like a marble. But it wasn’t. He didn’t know why, but Mr.Tallhead just had a thought. It wasn’t a marble.

It started to rain, so he knew it was time for supper. He murmured “I wish it stopped raining.” It stopped. It didn’t even have time to evaporate. The falling raindrops dissapeared, the clouds were gone, and it seemed like the rain didn’t exist. He now knew that this was a wishing rock, but not that sure. He tried again. He wished ” I wish there was 2 others of these!” he shouted. In his hand, he held 3 magic rocks. One for Ma, other for Pa, and the last for himself. He was very confident.

As he was going home, he wandered to the legendary harmonicaberry and largerberry hill. There he saw a liger blocking his way. He would die of hunger or be prey. The liger pouced on poor Tallhead Jr. and right before he bit Tallhead, Tallhead helplessly said, ” I wish I was a rock.” Mr. Liger bit the rock and broke his canines. He ran away and never went to the hill again. Without Liger, this is called Pleasant Hill.

From 1238 to 1240, there Longneck sat. He kept on trying o wish to be a giraffe again, but he wasn’t touching the rock. It just happend when his parents came walking by. They wanted to have a picnic. They found the rock, and, sadly sitting ate on Longneck Jr.! They saw the pebbles and placed them on the “rock”. This was Tallhead’s chance. He thought ” I wish I was a giraffe.” Instantly, he became a giraffe. The pans on him were falling, but the parents didn’t care. They were too overjoyed to notice.



David Xie, 2006.02.08.

Note: the liger is not a typo. It is a new type of animal (found around year 2002, I am not exactly sure about the time). It is lion-like tiger, or the in-between of a tiger and a lion.
