Picking Lotus is a poem by He, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, which reads as follows:

The cloud and mist in Jishan Mountain are gloomy, and there is no wind and no waves in the mirror water. Mo Yan's spring is beautiful, and there is no mid-stream lotus picking. The fog on Huiji Mountain dispersed, revealing mountains and lush vegetation, and waves appeared on the calm clear water. Don't say that after spring, flowers and plants are withered, and some people pick water chestnut leaves and lotus leaves in the middle of the water.

Appreciation of lotus picking songs;

Lotus picking song is a poem with special charm. Just reading the title makes you feel charming.

It is also beautiful to think about it, both quiet and peaceful.
