The verses about tea being like life are as follows:
1. "Qin Tea" - Bai Juyi
The Wuwu is inside the group, and Tao Tao is willful all his life. Since I resigned from office, I have been drunk in the spring, and have been idle since I stopped studying. The only thing I know about Qin Li is the Lushui River, and the only place I know about tea is the Mengshan Mountain. I have been with you for a long time, but who knows that I will never go back?
2. "An Old Friend Sends Tea" - Cao Ye
There are nine Chinese figures outside the sword, and the title is Jade Capital. When it opens, there is a slight moonlight, and the sound of springs is heard everywhere. The monks arrived in the middle of the night, singing alone and cooking to the moon. Bichenxia's feet are broken, and the fragrance is light and milky. The six bowels have gone to sleep, and I have been thinking clearly through several poems. I didn't dare to spend more than a month, so I left my elbow to write books.
3. "Sencha" - Cheng Yanxiong
When I woke up from a deep sleep in the spring of Yuesi Temple, I thought about it for a long time while running by the spring. Sichuan tea is like a cloud monk crushing it, picking up three or four dead pine branches.
4. "Hojicha Wu" - Gu Kuang
The new tea has been roasted, and the old tea is brewing. The new smoke is swirling, and the sound is splitting the cold wood.
5. "Mountain Spring Jiancha Huai" - Bai Juyi
Sit and drink the cool water, watching the simmering dust. Wuyou holds a bowl and sends it to tea lovers.
