Alone in the Dark
It is midnight, time for people to go to bed. But for some of the city inhabitants, it is just the beginning of a new day.
I am walking slowly along one of the busiest streets of the urban area. Everything seems quite different from it was during the day time. The buildings, the statues, the river, the trees,the street lights, the rusty pipes, the empty bottles, all seem to be refilled with energy. A gust of wind passes by, leaving a line of pine trees whispering to each other, "Our time is short!""I'm awake, I'm awake... "Just like what always happens in a fairy tale.
"Nature is restless." I walk alone, but never feel lonely, for there are always buildings, street lights accompanying me. Quiet and polite, they are like some well trained servants. Being the only human being in this elf world, I suddenly have the feeling in my heart that the whole city belongs temporarily to met which really gave me a lot of excitement.
"The music stops as if to answer an empty knock at the door .... "This beautiful scene reminds me of the poem written on the wall of the Blue Casket. This night, dark, cold but restless, is just like the heart of a human being.
簡 評
閱讀本文很容易讓人聯想到朱自清先生著名的“荷塘月色”。夜深人靜，忙碌了一天的人們都上床睡覺了，甚至連動物們都終止了一天的活動。然而，“我”眼中的城市才剛剛蘇醒，眼前的一切跟白天相比大相徑庭，到處充滿生機，一片欣欣向榮的景象。這城市現在隻屬于我一個人，我高興，我快樂，我心滿意足。但接下來呢?讓人意猶未盡。後面與其說留下的是懸念、是聯想，不如說是缺憾，因為好像寫出的太少太少，未寫的太多太多。所以這篇文章讓人感覺不甚完整。
