今年6月，兒子跟隨了11年、女兒跟隨了6年的鋼琴老師退休，一天看到兒子拍攝的家中的鋼琴照片，有些感覺，就寫下了這首詩。後來請兒子把這首詩翻譯成了英文，見中文詩後面。

黑與白：無限延伸的旋律
椰子
你是這樣黑與白的分明
分明如白天與黑夜的眼睛
你是這樣黑與白的分明
兩個琴鍵，跨盡世界的變幻
在這緊湊的結構里
你用嚴謹演繹出浪漫
在這緊湊的結構里
你用數學拋棄了刻板
你在黑與白的格子裡
柔柔地走
激烈地跳躍
發狂般地吶喊
輕輕地哭泣
你敲打着每一個人的心房
時重、 時輕
你用似乎不可能的音符
表現出了可能的全部
你用看似簡單的搭配
畫出了複雜或簡潔的思路
如線、如絲
把心纏得流出潔淨的淚珠兒
在黑與白的世界裡
忘記時間、忘記現實
只要能有忘記塵世的一刻
你就沉浸其中高高飛翔不要猶豫
在黑與白的世界裡
你用心走過了歲月遠離了輕佻
遠離了膚淺靠近了大氣
在黑與白的世界裡
你與音樂家用心對話你變得深刻
敏感、動情、敏捷、迅速
你把自己練成了美麗的塑像
在黑與白的琴鍵上
歲月的痕跡不聲不響
流年的河水緩緩如行板
這黑與白其實就是歲月
就是生命的顏色最終的沉澱
在黑與白的琴鍵上
演奏的是初學者的稚拙
少年的狂妄
青年的健美以及技巧的成熟
人生的歷練在你的琴鍵里也有痕跡
在黑與白的琴鍵上
是讓語言顯得蒼白的那種情感
是精神交流的一個個瞬間的定格
的那種味道那種凝練
今天當我看到你攝影的黑與白
我心裡的淚緩緩流出
在黑與白照出的音樂鏡子裡
我看到了你成長的足跡
一步、一步
一點、 一點
它濃縮了所有的語言
所有的情感

Black and White: Limitless Rhythms
By Ye zi Translator: Niu Niu
You, with clarity of black and white
Clear as the contrast between day and night
You, with clarity of black and white
Clear as the contrast between the poles of the world
In this compacted structure
Your discipline gives rise to romance
In this compacted structure
Your precision rids us of blandness
In your expanses of black and white
We walk tranquilly
We leap for joy
We scream as if mad
We weep softly
You beat against everyone’s hearts
Hard at times, soft at times
You using seemingly impossible notes
Express all that is possible
You, using seemingly simple combinations
Create complex or clean messages
Like string, like silk
Squeezing the pure essence from our hearts
In the world of black and white
Forgetting time, forgetting reality
As long as we can forget the world for a moment
You can soar carefree
In the world of black and white
Your heart has crossed time, left the naive
Leaving the shallow and approaching the deep
In the world of black and white
You converse with the greats
Becoming sensitive, emotional, and memorable
You become like a beautiful sculpture
On the keys of black and white
The mark of the ages is unseen
The river of time flows smoothly across
Black and white, the symbol of time
The finale of all of life’s colors
On the keys of black and white
We see the innocence of beginners
We see the spontaneity of adolescence
We see the skill power of flourishing youth
The progression of life can be seen on your keys
On the keys of black and white
Words seem empty
We communicate with something greater, even if
for split seconds
Something you can feel and understand in your soul
This day, when I see your shots of black and white
The tears of my heart come slowly
In the mirror of music, of black and white
I see the steps of your growth
Step by step
Little by little
It encompasses all language
All feelings
