A child with unkempt hair and immature face is learning to fish by the river. He is sitting sideways in the grass, and his shadow is set off by weeds.
Hearing the voice of passers-by, the child waved, afraid to disturb the fish and dare not respond to passers-by.
Hu Lingneng (785-826), a poet in Tang Dynasty (Tang Zhenyuan, Yuanhe years), was born in zhongmou county, Zhengzhou, Henan Province, and lived in seclusion in Putian (Zhongmou Putian, Zhengzhou, Henan Province). My family is poor. When I was young, I made a living by repairing pots and pans. I'm called "the hinge with a nail". Legend has it that a poet dreamed of having a caesarean section, and he could recite it in a book. His poetic language is simple and ingenious, and he has a strong interest in life. Now there are only four poems left.
