Xiao Chun Tang Dynasty: Meng Haoran
Sleeping sickness in spring unconsciously broke the morning, and the chirping of birds disturbed my sleep.
How many flowers fall after a stormy night.
In spring, when I woke up, I didn't realize that it was already dawn and birds were singing everywhere. Recall how many fragrant spring flowers were blown down by the wind and rain last night.
Poets like to describe spring. Because in spring, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, and the sun is shining, which makes people relaxed and happy. However, Meng Haoran is very interesting. He doesn't write about seeing green trees or smelling flowers. He only wakes up in the morning and writes down his guess after hearing the birds chirping. Meng Haoran wrote a colorful spring for us with his delicate imagination. He is really an excellent poet!
Meng's poems are mostly five-character short stories, mostly pastoral poems and secluded poems, and most of them are in the mood of serving immortals. Although it is not without cynicism, it is more of a poet's self-expression.
