In the evening, light rain fell from the sky and kept falling.
Du Fu sat by the window, enjoying the timely rain. He thought, ah, what a timely spring rain! It moistens all things quietly, like an unknown person, making contributions to mankind silently.
At night, dark clouds cover the sky, and the country road is quiet and dark. Only on the river, a lamp is lit on the fishing boat, just like the stars in the distance in the sky, emitting a little light, looming. The drizzle fell into the river and rippled everywhere, and then the river was calm again. With the spring rain, how charming and intoxicating the night scene is!
Du Fu was fascinated by it and thought: Tomorrow morning, the wet soil must be covered with red petals, like an endless sea of flowers. In the streets of Chengdu, it must be a colorful and vibrant scene. How nice it would be! Thinking about it, he suddenly got inspiration and wrote a poem: Good rain knows the season, and when spring comes, it sneaks into the night with the wind, and all is silent. The wild path is dark and the river is bright. Look at the red and wet place, Miyagi flowers are heavy.
The rain gradually stopped, and Du Fu fell asleep with the last movement of the serenade. He also had a good dream. The next morning, the fragrance was everywhere, all because of Miss Chunyu. Du Fu got up early. He opened the door and looked, ah, the flowers in the yard are all rain, in bud, and some flowers have been serenaded in early spring.
