Red and purple turned into dust,
In the cuckoo's cry, summer is new.
Sang Ma couldn't stop,
I realized that I am a peace-loving person.
Appreciation of quatrains in early summer
Literally, fresh style. The main idea of the whole poem is: those big purple flowers that bloom in spring will wither and turn to dust after a spring, and summer will come with the cuckoo's cry. I have been walking on the road with three mothers on both sides until I know that I am in a peaceful world. The first two sentences about the scenery in summer are vivid and clear. The last two sentences, Sang Ma's endless activities mean prosperity, and Taiping people mean people who live in peace with the world, that is, people who live in peace and prosperity. Maybe it's a scene of flowers in early summer.
But Lu You lived in the Southern Song Dynasty, so why this poem is so unknown. However, only from the new scene of summer can we have this feeling. It can also be said that naturally people forget the country's worries. It may also be that the poet wanted to satirize the real society at that time with this poem, because in ancient times, scholars could not talk about state affairs, so the poet may be satirizing. This not only avoids taboos, but also expresses your feelings.
