        春節過後兩個月期間，我家聖誕花環依舊掛在大門正中央，今年賓州出冬以來雨水很多，春天遲疑不決，花骨朵更是無所適從，乍暖還寒的時候最難將息，這個披紅掛綠的松枝飾物便成了前院一道不可或缺的風景點。再說，本來我家老少都從房子另外一側的車庫進進出出，平日難得跟花環碰面，要不是打算更換花環旁邊癟了好久的燈泡，我輕易察覺不出什麼變化。

        當我走近大門，忽見一隻麻雀從花環內疾速飛出，然後停在對面的豆梨樹上嘰嘰喳喳叫個不停，誰招你惹你了？莫非……我連忙取下花環，果然料事如神，花環背面下方不知什麼時候搭起來一個鳥窩，草蓆上躺着兩個鳥蛋。我蹲在台階上開始端詳或許昨天剛剛降生的小傢伙，拇指大小，白里透藍，鳥窩面積似乎足以容納兩三隻成鳥。為了不讓鳥媽鳥爸擔驚受怕，我主動把花環放回原處，並知趣地躲在遠處觀測動靜，直至看到鳥媽或鳥爸回巢才肯罷休。

        我立刻通過微信把喜訊散發給各大朋友圈，霎那間未孵化的鳥蛋被刷成網紅，有人揣摩鳥媽模樣，有人八卦鳥爸下落，有人分析鳥蛋成活率，有人打探鳥仔起居，有人估算鳥星壽命，有人預測鳥輩前程,……

        而我則首選音樂胎（蛋）教，從發現兩個鳥蛋到最後五隻雛鳥孵化飛走前後33天成長期間，希望夫妻檔熱門二重唱《心有所屬》(Us the Duo “Already Mine”)和卡倫·史考特的消魂情歌《因為你》(Calum Scott “You Are the Reason”)能給“五朵金花”的童年帶來快樂。

《因為你》

                突然心跳加速

                因為眼裡映入了你

                深夜輾轉反側

                請快回到我身邊

                腦子裡一團糟

                皆因你而惆悵

                我仍在苟延殘喘

                在絕望邊緣徘徊

                我願翻山越嶺

                漂洋過海

                只為伴着你

                彌補我所破碎的

                我一定要讓你知道

                你是我所愛的人

                我雙手微顫

                只因眼前是你

                心在滴血

                我現在無比需要你

                如果我能讓時光倒流

                我確信光明終將戰勝黑暗

                我心甘情願用每一分每一秒

                來守護着你

                我甘願翻山越嶺

                穿過海洋

                只為陪伴着你

                彌補我所傷害的

                我需要讓你知道

                你就是我的唯一

                你就是我所愛的人

                我甘願翻山越嶺

                漂洋過海

                只為伴在你身邊

                彌補我的過失

                我需要你明白

                此生我只要你

You Are the Reason

                There goes my heart beating

                Cause you are the reason

                I'm losing my sleep

                Please come back now

                There goes my mind racing

                And you are the reason

                That I'm still breathing

                I'm hopeless now

                I'd climb every mountain

                And swim every ocean

                Just to be with you

                And fix what I've broken

                Oh, cause I need you to see

                That you are the reason

                There goes my hands shaking

                And you are the reason

                My heart keeps bleeding

                I need you now

                If I could turn back the clock

                I'd make sure the light defeated the dark

                I'd spend every hour, of every day

                Keeping you safe

                I'd climb every mountain

                And swim every ocean

                Just to be with you

                And fix what I've broken

                Oh, cause I need you to see

                That you are the reason

                You are the reason

                I'd climb every mountain

                And swim every ocean

                Just to be with you

                And fix what I've broken

                Cause I need you to see

                That you are the reason
