"Lovely Rain on a Spring Night" by Du Fu
Good rain knows the season, and spring will happen.
Sneak into the night with the wind, moisturizing things silently.
The wild paths are all dark with clouds, but the river boats are only bright with fire.
Looking at the red and wet place at dawn, the flowers are heavy on the official city.
This poem was written by Du Fu when he lived in a thatched cottage in Chengdu. It uses personification to carefully describe the characteristics of spring rain and the scene of night rain in Chengdu, describing the spring rain coming in time and nourishing all things. The poet described the spring rain in a detailed, vivid and unique way.
"Drunken Book at Wanghu Tower on June 27" by Su Shi
Black clouds rolled over the mountains without covering the mountains, and white raindrops jumped into the boat.
When the wind comes and blows away, the water under Wanghu Tower is like the sky.
This poem describes the beautiful rain scene of Wanghu Tower. The poet with quick thinking captured this unique impromptu performance of West Lake in his poems and drew a picture of a shower in West Lake. Dark clouds gathered suddenly, heavy rain fell suddenly, and then it rained again and the sky cleared up, and the water and sky were the same color. It is a mountain, a water, and a boat, which highlights the characteristics of rafting on the West Lake.
"Spring Tour on the Lake" Xu Fu
When will the swallows fly back and forth, and the peach blossoms on the bank will bloom when dipped in water.
The spring rain breaks the bridge and no one can cross it, so the small boat pulls out of the willow shade.
The poet is good at grasping the essence of things and expressing them through the return of swallows and the blooming of peach blossoms. It depicts the beautiful scenery of the lake in spring, and highlights the characteristics of the rising lake water through the bridge broken by the spring rain and the boat ferry. The last two lines of this poem are particularly famous. From the broken bridge, you can see the rising water; from the small boat, you can see the width of the lake. It fully reflects the two important aesthetic characteristics of Chinese poetry art.
