On the wonder web of words,
I am wandering to ponder.

Where stocks the immaculate
to array my board of checker?

Where sprints the dancing river
to tune up my rhyme and meter?

Where strews the sun-dried firewoods
to blaze for my buddy camper?

O come all ye late surfers,
Come and be my good wine toaster.

Today is day of poetry,
Tonight for ev'ry star gazer.

(penned on the inaugural night of bbsland's poem forum, revised and translated the next morning)

奇異字網兮留連冥思
安得美言兮鑲我文盤
河水勁舞兮調我韻律
乾柴何所兮暖我營友
不寐同網兮共飲美酒
日出詩壇兮夜入瞻星
