In the middle of three roads

Once upon a time [Song Dynasty]

When the plum blossoms are yellow, every day is a sunny day. Take a boat along the stream to the end of the stream, and then continue on the road.

The green trees on the mountain road are as dense as when they came, and the bushes of several orioles in the dense forest add more fun than when they came.

Make an appreciative comment

The first sentence, "It will be sunny when the plum blossoms are yellow", points out the time of this trip; The second sentence, "the stream is full of mountains", tells the poet's lofty wandering; Three or four sentences "The shade does not reduce the road, but only increases the oriole's four or five sounds", closely following the "mountain trip", rendering the poet's comfortable and happy mood. The whole poem is vivid and natural, woven into its own happy artistic conception in the description of the scenery, full of life charm.
