Although language is simple, it contains beauty: symbols and metaphors often use things in daily life. The poem boldly describes the beauty of women's bodies, which is novel and distinctive. The description of love is bold and straightforward, and the feelings are unrestrained. This poem describes many rural beauty and shows the love for nature, but it doesn't mention God from beginning to end.
