绘本菜园里，泥土中(UpintheGarden,DownintheDirt)(5)

I weed and wilt(除草并将其晒干) in sun so strong even Nana looks for shade(寻找绿荫).
Down in the dirt earthworms tunnel deep.
I"m jealous of their cool, damp, dark.

Up in the garden— "Rain shower!" Nana turns the hose on me(将水管指向某人)! "Eeeee!"

I hide behind the cucumber vines(黄瓜藤), but their leaves can"t save me.
I shiver and laugh(颤抖着笑着), drenched in Nana"s rain(在奶奶的洒水中湿透了身).
Down in the dirt, water soaks deep(水往深处了渗).
Roots drink it in, and a long-legged spider(长腿蜘蛛) stilt-walks over the streams(踩着大长腿跨过这些小细流).
