Early summer.
Huanxisha (Song Dynasty, Su Shi)
Jujube flowers fall on clothes and towels. The sound of a milling wheel is heard in the south of the village and in the north of the village. Banyi Guliu sells cucumbers.
I feel sleepy when I'm tired of drinking, and I want to sleep when I'm thirsty. Knock on the door and ask the savages.
This poem is one of the five poems "Huanxisha" written by the author in Xuzhou, describing his experiences and feelings in the countryside. The work is artistically ingenious. The lyrics start from typical things commonly seen in rural areas, and express the honest rural flavor in an interesting way. Fresh and simple, clear as words, vivid and lifelike, are the distinctive features of this word.
