One Inch Tall 《一英尺高》，来自Shel Silverstein，送给所有的孩子。
One Inch Tall
By Shel Silverstein
If you were only one inch tall, you&`&d ride a worm to school.
倘若你只有一寸高，便能骑着一条小虫去上学。
The teardrop of a crying ant would be your swimming pool.
蚂蚁哭泣时的一滴泪将成为你的游泳池。
A crumb of cake would be a feast
一点蛋糕屑能变成一场盛宴，
And last you seven days at least,
足够你至少吃上七天，
A flea would be a frightening beast
一只跳蚤就会是一头可怕的猛兽，
If you were one inch tall.
倘若你只有一寸高。
If you were only one inch tall, you&`&d walk beneath the door,
倘若你只有一寸高，便能穿越门下的缝隙，
And it would take about a month to get down to the store.
而要行至商店则需要花上一个月的时间，
A bit of fluff would be your bed,
一小撮绒毛能变成你的温床，
You&`&d swing upon a spider&`&s thread,
你能在一根蜘蛛丝上玩秋千，
And wear a thimble on your head
头上戴着顶针作为头盔，
If you were one inch tall.
倘若你只有一寸高。
You&`&d surf across the kitchen sink upon a stick of gum.
你能乘着一块口香糖在厨房的水池里冲浪。
You couldn&`&t hug your mama, you&`&d just have to hug her thumb.
但你无法拥抱妈妈，你只能拥抱她的拇指。
You&`&d run from people&`&s feet in fright,
你会惊恐地逃离人们的脚丫，
To move a pen would take all night,
你需要花上一整夜的时间来搬动一支钢笔，
(This poem took fourteen years to write--
&`&Cause I&`&m just one inch tall).
（而写下这首诗则须花上十四年-----
因为我只有一寸高）
