兩年前,他死了。他每日勞作勞作過大半生的園子,如今大多已亂生野草。他原有的絲瓜棚子,部分由一家鄰農接管,日日灑水續種絲瓜;部分農地則由他的兒子整頓成櫻花樹園,培植櫻花樹苗。園裡一座儲放農具與他下工暫憩的工寮裡,各類器物擺放在他最後一次使用的位置上......一次,我伴他再度踏上這座園子,我將他收束成一道光,將他自手持著的手電筒裡折射出去,讓他伴我打亮田埂徑。我們在園子裡迂迴繞行,穿過一叢叢過膝過肩的雜草花,越過一段段炙熱的農作記憶,朝著花園的盡頭、時間的深處走去。

Two years ago, he died. The garden where he cultivated for his whole life is full of wild weeds. A part of the luffa trellis he owned was taken over by his neighbor. The other part was cultivated by his son as a cherry tree sapling garden. In the farm hut where he stored implements and took a rest, all sort of tools are still laid on the place where he used for the last time… One time, I walked into this garden once again, with him. I transform his spirit into a beam of light, and reflect it out from the flashlight. Make him accompany me and brighten up the ridges between fields. We wandered in the garden, passing through tussock grasses and wild flowers, crossing over the farmland memories, and walked toward the end of the garden and the depth of the time.
