(Song) Zhao Shixiu

Mei Huang Shi, every family was flooded by rain, and the pond was covered with green grass and frogs.

It's past midnight, and the invited guests haven't come yet. I tapped the chess pieces bored and shook the wick of an oil lamp.

[Notes]

1. Huangmei season: the period of yellow ripening of plums in late spring and early summer in Jiangnan, about forty days, which is called Huangmeitian.

2. snuff: flowers formed when the wick burns.

[translation]

In Huangmei season, every household is wrapped in mist and rain, and frogs are everywhere around the grassy pond. It's the middle of the night, and the guests (poets) haven't arrived yet, so I have to look at the chessboard alone, and snuff has gone before I know it.

[Author]

Zhao Shixiu (A.D.1156-1219), born in Yongjia (now Zhejiang), was a poet in the Southern Song Dynasty. His poems are harmonious, beautiful and natural.

A poem by Zhao Shixiu in Song Dynasty.

I like the sentence "Knock a chess piece and drop it in the snuff" best. Every one of them knocks and drops it so skillfully. The first sentence is "It rains in every family in Huangmei season", and then point out the time and place. The time is June and July, and the place is in Jiangnan, which is the rainy season in Jiangnan. The frog burst, so it's night. I live in the country and it's quiet around. The poet waited for his friend to arrive as promised, but his friend hasn't come yet. It's past midnight. When I am bored, I amuse myself and play chess by myself. I think, under that artistic conception, there must be Go, black and white, with infinite mystery. Go is most suitable for single player games. "Knock off the snuff when the date is less than midnight" and "Come back when you are happy". There is no causal relationship between whether my friends will come or not and whether I am happy or not.
