merry go round  旋转木马

小男孩伊桑在学校里受到同学们的欺凌，他逃学去了一个游乐场。一个女孩送给他一枝花儿，消失不见了。

It was a Friday. Some boys and girls were gossiping that the new comer, a little boy called  Ethan, was an orphan, whose parents were killed in an amusement park, where the roller coaster ran out of its track.

With tears in his eyes, Ethan ran away from the crowd carrying his schoolbag. No one knew where he would go, so did Ethan himself.

He wandered along the street till the darkness said hello to this lonely planet. He walked into a small park, where he met a little girl who picked a bunch of peach flowers for him and disappeared in the darkness.

He stood in front of the merry go round, looked at the revolving horses and whispered to himself. 

"They are supposed to take me to play on the merry go round, but where are they?" 

He would never ride on a horse.

有一首歌曲里边唱到：

The merry-go-round 

goes round and round

The children laughed and 

laughed and laughed

So many were going 

round and round

That the merry-go-round 

collapsed

旋转木马转呀转

孩子们欢笑声一片

旋转木马转呀转

然后

倒塌了

ZEN

一想到大家总有天要死，就觉得该对喜欢的人好一点。
