在这首诗里，我们看到人与人之间的微妙关系：两个素昧平生的人偶然相识，擦出火花，然而这真的是第一次相见吗？诗人使我们用全新的角度去看待疏离的人际关系，并且感受到一丝暖意和甜蜜。喜欢几米绘本《向左走，向右走》的朋友，一定不会忘记这首诗吧？Love at First Sight一见钟情

They’re both convincedthat a sudden passion joined them.Such certainty is beautiful,but uncertainty is more beautiful still.他们彼此深信是瞬间迸发的热情让他们相遇这样的确定是美丽的但变幻无常更为美丽Since they’d never met before, they’re surethat there’d been nothing between them.But what’s the word from the streets, staircases, hallways—perhaps they’ve passed by each other a million times?他们素未谋面所以他们确定彼此并无任何瓜葛但是自街道、楼梯、大堂传来的话语他们也许擦肩而过100万次了吧

I want to ask themif they don’t remember—a moment face to facein some revolving door?perhaps a “sorry” muttered in a crowd?a curt “wrong number” caught in the receiver?—but I know the answer.No, they don’t remember.我想问他们是否记得在旋转门面对面那一刹或是在人群中喃喃道出的对不起或是在电话的另一端道出的打错了但是我早知道答案是的，他们并不记得They’d be amazed to hearthat Chance has been toying with themnow for years.他们会很讶异原来缘分已经戏弄他们多年

Not quite ready yetto become their Destiny,it pushed them close, drove them apart,it barred their path,stifling a laugh,and then leaped aside.时机尚未成熟变成他们的命运缘分将他们推进距离阻挡他们的去路忍住笑声然后闪到一旁There were signs and signals,even if they couldn’t read them yet.Perhaps three years agoor just last Tuesdaya certain leaf flutteredfrom one shoulder to another?Something was dropped and then picked up.Who knows, maybe the ball that vanishedinto childhood’s thicket?有一些迹象和信号存在即使他们尚无法解读也许在三年前或者就在上个星期二有某片叶子飘舞于肩与肩之间？有东西掉了又捡了起来？天晓得，也许是那个消失于童年灌木丛中的球？

There were doorknobs and doorbellswhere one touch had covered anotherbeforehand.Suitcases checked and standing side by side.One night, perhaps, the same dream,grown hazy by morning.还有事前已被触摸层层覆盖的门把和门铃检查完毕后并排放置的手提箱有一晚，也许同样的梦，到了早晨变得模糊。Every beginningis only a sequel, after all,and the book of eventsis always open halfway through.每个开始毕竟都只是续篇，而充满情节的书总是从一半开始看起。
