The black clouds rolling over the mountains are not covered by the ink, and the white raindrops jumping into the boat are described in summer.
From Su Shi's "Drunken Book at Wanghu Tower on June 27th" by Su Shi of the Song Dynasty.
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.
Translation: The dark clouds surged up, like ink splashing down, but a section of mountains appeared on the horizon. The water splashed by the heavy rain splashed into the boat like white beads and gravel. Suddenly, a strong wind swept over the ground, blowing away the dark clouds in the sky, and the water of the West Lake was as clear as a mirror, bright and gentle.
Extended information
The first sentence writes cloud: The black cloud is like spilled black ink, which has not yet had time to cover the mountain. The dark clouds are compared to "turning ink", which is a realistic image. The second sentence writes about rain: The bright white raindrops fell on the lake, causing countless splashes of water to jump into the cabin.
Using "jumping beads" to describe raindrops is vivid and vivid. The word "wei" highlights the rapid changes in the weather; the word "jump" and the word "chaos" express the severity of the rainstorm and the urgency of the raindrops.
The third sentence writes about wind: Suddenly, a strong wind swept across the earth, causing the rain and clouds to fly on the lake. The word "suddenly" is used very lightly, but it highlights the rapid change of the sky and shows the huge power of the wind. The last sentence writes about sky and water: After the rain, the sky cleared, and the wind and waves calmed down. The poet left his boat and climbed up to the building, leaning on the railing and looking out. He saw no water on the lake, but the water reflected the sky. The color of the water was as bright and clear as the sky, and it was the same color of blue.
This poem describes a rainstorm that comes and goes on the West Lake in summer. The first sentence describes the rolling black clouds, the second sentence describes the pouring rain, and the last two sentences describes the sky clearing up after the rain. How rapidly nature changes, and how magical the poet's pen is.
