夢想的顏色:Andy Burrows《The Color Of My Dreams》
這是一個有著誦讀障礙卻熱愛畫畫的小孩的故事
在Andy Burrows的吟唱中,我們所有人都仿佛變成了那個小孩,重新開始打量這個世界
他是否喚醒了你心里的某些東西呢?
所有的所有,仿佛都不那么重要了,
沒完沒了的閱讀測驗(yàn),他人古怪的眼光,
But none of them will ever know
The colour of my dreams
雖然只有短短的一分多鐘,卻令人動容
第一次聽到的時候,就被這個故事所深深打動
夢想的顏色,到底有多動人
也許,只有你自己才能明白
那滿溢的美好會讓你覺得世界都開始閃亮

Song:The Color Of My Dreams
I'm a really rotten reader, the worst in all the class,
The sort of rotten reader, that makes you want to laugh,
I'm last in all the reading tests, my scores not on the page,
When I read to teacher, she gets in such a rage.
She says I cannot form my words
She says I can't build up
And that I don't know phonics
And don't know "cat" from "cut"
They say than I'm dyslexic
That's a word they just found out
But when I get some plasticine
I know what that's about
I make these scary monsters
I draw these secret lands
I get my hair all sticky
And paint all on my hands
I make these super models
I build these smashing towers
They reach up to the ceiling
And take me hours and hours
She says I cannot form my words
She says I can't build up
And that I don't know phonics
And don't know "cat" from "cut"
They say than I'm dyslexic
That's a word they just found out
But when I get some plasticine
I know what that's about
I paint these lovely pictures
In thick green drippy paint
It gets on all the carpet
And makes the cleaners faint
I build great magic forests
Wee bushed out of string
And paint pinkpandarellos
And birds thay really sing
She says I cannot form my words
She says I can't build up
And that I don't know phonics
And don't know "cat" from "cut"
They say than I'm dyslexic
That's a word they just found out
But when I get some plasticine
I know what that's about
I play my world of real believe
I play it every day
People stand and watch me
But don't know what to say
They give me diagnostic tests
And try out reading schemes
But none of them will ever know
The colour of my dreams
