Poems that rain on sunny nights.

It's sunny and rainy, the wind blows the ancient trees, and the moon shines with sand and frost in summer night-two image metaphors of "sunny and rainy" and "summer night frost" are used. The former connects the bleak sound of wind blowing ancient leaves with the sound of rain, which shows that it resembles the sound of rain; The latter compares the silvery white of the bright moon with the frost hue and interprets it as autumn frost. It is reasonable to link contradictory natural phenomena with strong subjective imagination through art, so that the scenery conveys a cool atmosphere.

From the work of Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi, Looking at the Xijiang River.

The whole poem is as follows:

At night, looking east on the upper floor of the river, the sea is connected with the sea as far as the eye can see; The feeling of mountains and rivers is wide and long.

The city lights up around, and a galaxy sinks into the center of the water.

On a sunny day, the wind blows against the old trees, rustling as if it were raining; On summer nights, the moon hangs all over the ground, just like autumn frost.

Can we go to the river to cool off? Refresher than your cabin.

The translation is as follows:

At night, looking eastward on the upper floor of the river, the sea and the sky are connected as far as the eye can see; The feeling of mountains and rivers is wide and long. There are thousands of lights around the city and a galaxy is reflected in the middle of the water. On a sunny day, the wind blows against the old trees, rustling as if it were raining; On a summer night, the moonlight is everywhere, just like autumn frost. Can you come to Jianglou to cool off? It's really much cooler than your cabin.
