The hand of time gently pushes the door of spring, awakening the most beautiful April day on earth.
This is a season when flowers bloom and fall fragrantly.
The picture of time, dipped in the colors of the seasons, carries the tenderness of a wisp of wind and the ethereal of rain, slowly unfolding.
The wind is clear and the sun is clear, the smoke willow painting bridge, the falling flowers and the flowing water, the amazing flowing years, the colorful seasons,
"Bird outside the bell Lingyin Temple, lace flowing water Wuling source", in the ancient poems encounter the most beautiful April day.

From the Song Dynasty Hong Yan's "April 23Rd Evening with Taichong Table of the Gongshi Wild Step".
Hong Yan, a poet who may not be familiar to everyone, is the nephew of Huang Tingjian, the founder of the Jiangxi Poetry School, according to the "Song Hundred Family Poetry Cun", his poetic style is dashing and pioneering, and this poem "The Gongshi Wild Steps of the Taichong Table on the Evening of April 23" is his representative work.
It was a sunny spring day, and poets and friends came to the countryside to set foot.
Surrounded by mountains, there is a green field in the middle.
Between the flowers and trees, several families can be faintly seen.
The birds on the branches of the trees were shouting happily, and not far away from the Lingyin Temple, there was the sound of bells.
The fragrance of wildflowers, the babbling of flowing water, and the trance, as if entering a paradise.
What he has seen and heard along the way, no matter how clever Danqing is, is difficult to describe, and even the most beautiful language is difficult to describe.
Finally the poet stopped, on crutches, and stood at the edge of the field watching the farmer planting the seedlings, and before he knew it, it was dusk.
The whole poem ends here, and whether the poet will continue to move forward or return is left to the reader's own imagination.
Through describing what he saw and heard while strolling with his friends in the suburbs, the whole poem portrays a picture of a quiet and beautiful rural landscape, which vividly expresses the poet's open-minded feelings of sending love to the landscape and insulting and forgetting, which is intoxicating to read.

This sentence comes from Du Fu's "Plum Rain" in the Tang Dynasty.
Regarding this poem, there are two places that are easy to misunderstand, the first is the "Nanjing" of the first link, referring to Chengdu, Sichuan, during the Anshi Rebellion, Tang Xuanzong avoided the disaster in Shuzhong and designated Chengdu as "Nanjing".
The second is the "plum rain" in the poem title, since it is Chengdu, then the plum rain naturally does not refer to a continuous rainy day, on this point, Fan Chengda once said in the "Wu Ship Record" that "Shu has no plum rain, Zimei ripe plum when traveling, even if the rain ear".
Therefore, the "plum rain" in Du Fu's poem does not have that sense of entanglement and tenderness, but creates a vast and magnificent artistic conception.
In April of that year, when meizi was ripe, the poet passed by the town of Xipu in Chengdu.
At that time, the spring water was full of wilderness, and the vast river rushed down to the Yangtze River.
Light rain drifted in the air, and bits and pieces of rain wet the thatched roof.
In the distance, the whole mountain was shrouded in thin clouds, hazy.
The wide river also rippled, forming a whirlpool, as if there were dragons playing on it.
The spring rain is misty, the clouds are difficult to open, it should have been a very dim weather, but in the poet's pen, it presents a vast and magnificent mood, and even the annoying rain has become cute, which is the charm of poetry.

From the Yuan Dynasty Bai Jue's "Yuhang April".
Bai Jue was a poet of the Yuan Dynasty, his biological father was Shu Shaodu, and he was later adopted by the Bai family in Qiantang, he was brilliant since childhood, and when he grew up, on the recommendation of Li Jian, he once served as a petty official such as a state judge.
His poems are mostly written about landscapes and idyllic landscapes, the language is natural and clear, the style is idyllic and elegant, and it was once highly respected by the people of the times.
This poem "Yuhang April" should be written when he was living in seclusion in Hangzhou in his later years, word by word, beautiful as a picture.
In Hangzhou in April, the sky is blue and the sun is bright, the flowers are blooming, and everywhere is full of vitality.
On the green trees are hung bright red cherries, and on the small table under the trees is a bowl of amber wine, accompanied by green beans, which is mouth-watering.
On the green meadows outside the village, a flock of white geese frolicked on it.
On the river, the spring water rises, the boats are brisk as fast as flying, the breeze blows, the thin sleeves flutter, and beautiful shadows are reflected on the water.
Every door and window is closed, silent, and it turns out that they are busy raising silkworms.
The whole poem seems to be writing scenes, but people's activities can be seen everywhere between the lines, picturesque scenery, personnel tranquility, and fascinating.
Although the poetry of a thousand years ago has been precipitated in the long river of history, when the spring wind blows and the spring rain falls, those hidden in the depths of time are greeted.
With a breeze, a rain of flowers, driving the carriages and horses of the years, to the feast of each dynasty.
"April is more than Hangzhou Road, a sunny business is busy", read these three ancient poems, only to know how beautiful April is.
