These aspects of chrysanthemum are also shown in ancient poetry. While appreciating the character of Chrysanthemum, they also expressed the poet's own feelings.
For example, Lu You's "Folding Chrysanthemums on September 12th":
Huang Juxiang is peerless, and Chongyang misplaced the dogwood branch.
The later you start, the more you see Cao, which makes you laugh at the way those outdated children do.
Huang Ju is so beautiful and fragrant that it is hard to find such a wonderful flower in the world, but the world matched it with Cornus officinalis and inserted it in the Double Ninth Festival. The later the chrysanthemum blooms, the more we can see its noble sentiment of being proud of first frost. Ignorant children only laugh when they say chrysanthemums are out of date.
Another example is Su Shi's Zhao Changhan Residence:
Light muscles and weak bones, dispel the hidden flowers and make the gold nucleus shine.
Want to know the medicine to delay aging, let a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend.
Translated into vernacular: weak bones and muscles are scattered with faint fragrance, and golden petals shine like sunset glow. Chrysanthemum is a medicine that can prolong life. Only when a hundred kinds of herbs were destroyed did it begin to blossom.
From these two poems written by famous poets, we can see that the poetry of chrysanthemum is: it is tenacious in vitality, noble in morality, proud of first frost, and also symbolizes longevity.
