Giving a bowl full of ice to sink the vermilion, and pouring wine in the east fence after dusk is a description of the activities of the ancients during summer heat.
What are the poems about relieving the summer heat and enjoying the coolness:
1. "Enjoying the Coolness" Song Dynasty Qin Guan
Bringing a knife to chase the coolness outside the willows, leaning against the south bank of the painted bridge Hu bed. The moon is bright, the boat flutes are rising, the wind is still in the pond, and the lotus flowers are fragrant. On a moonlit night, the boatman's sons and daughters played the piccolo, and the sound of the flute rose up and lingered on the water. As the evening breeze begins to settle, the lotus flowers in the pond are in full bloom, and the gentle fragrance overflows from time to time, refreshing the heart and mind. The poet leaned leisurely on the bed, closed his eyes in pleasure, not only felt satisfied in the palace, but also felt extremely comfortable in his mood.
2. "Chasing the Cold on a Summer Night" by Yang Wanli of the Song Dynasty
The night heat is still the same as the noon heat, and the moon is bright when I open the door. Deep in the bamboos and densely packed with insects, there is sometimes a slight coolness that is not the wind. The bamboo forest is deep, the shade is dense, and the insects are chirping. In the quiet summer night, the poet was in it, and a cool feeling suddenly occurred;
This leads to the conclusion of the sentence "There is a slight coolness sometimes, but it is not the wind", this real and subtle experience. "It's not the wind" points out that the so-called coolness is just the coolness caused by the clear air in the deep night, not the coolness of the night wind.
3. "Qingpingle·Enjoying the Coolness on the Pond" Qing Dynasty: Xiang Hongzuo
The water and sky are clear, and the courtyard is quiet and people are away from summer. The wax torch is shaking in the wind, and the bamboo shadow half the wall is picturesque. When I'm drunk, I put on the Taosheng and cool it with a fan. As soon as it rains in the lotus pond, there will be the sound of autumn in the Ming Dynasty.
The summer night is quiet and quiet. The moonlight reflects the bamboo forest on the wall, and the bamboo shadows sway in the wind, making a slight sound. The lotus leaves in front of the pond are green and the lotus flowers are blooming. However, after a sudden rain, the flowers withered and the leaves were withered overnight. When I woke up in the morning, there was the sound of autumn in the courtyard.
4. "Ezhou Nanlou Calligraphy" Song Dynasty: Huang Tingjian
Looking around, you can see the light of the mountains and the light of the water, and the fragrance of the lotus root ten miles away from the railing. There is no one to care about the clear breeze and bright moon, and the south building is blindly cool. On a summer night, the poet climbed up to the tall south tower to enjoy the cool air.
He leaned on the railing and looked, and the bright clear light poured down. The mountain light and water light on all sides are connected and complement each other, and it is bright; water chestnut flowers and lotus flowers are in full bloom for more than ten miles. In the cool night wind, there is a constant faint fragrance blowing towards the face.
