By HENRY L. KOOPMAN

The leaves of the elm and the maple，

First opened their wondering eyes，

Under the bending beauty，

Of the azure April skies.  

They drank in the warmth of springtime,

They threw off their swathing bands,

And reached out into the sunlight，

Their pink, imploring hands.

樹葉的嬉戲

亨利·L.庫珀曼

榆樹和楓樹的葉子，

睜開了迷惑的眼睛，

在蔚藍(lán)美麗的，

四月天空下。
