Wan Peng ‖ Early Spring (Outer Song)

early spring

Wan Peng

The wind changed direction

In the midst of the material

I sniffed

The fragrance of the earth in the distance

I know

The nest of swallows under the old eaves

It is on the way with the wind

The mountains are still dressed in white costumes

Looking east

The stream is under thin ice

Singing

Ice and snow turn into colostrum

Feed the green shoots

Green buds under the snow cover

Weave spring clothes for the earth

All dormant

They have all woken up in the spring breeze

All hope

All buds are full

The spring flowers sounded the golden horn

Spring, come

Dream, set sail

Wan Peng ‖ Early Spring (Outer Song)

Mother's Spring

Mountains, mottled with residual snow

The mother staggered and leaned down

Filter with your eyes

Every inch of the hillside

Pick up the grains

Air-dried soft ground

Pull out the yellowing artemisia grass

Pinch off the tender bud tips of the alfalfa

Pick up a cabbage

Shake off the soil grains and dry grass clippings on it

In the bleak daylight

The figure of the mother is awkward

In this rickety figure

I found spring

A plate of fragrant soft buns

A spring roll made of cold alfalfa buds

Dumplings stuffed with cabbage are dipped in balsamic vinegar

Mother's spring is so fragrant, so fresh

A shovel and a shovel

Turn over the vegetable garden where the soil melts

Carefully rake each lump of soil

Plant a row of shallots and rows of garlic

One carob, a few nests of melons

Spring, the first to visit

It is the mother's vegetable garden

Carefully pick each egg

Accompany the old hen

Incubate for twenty-one days

In the warm spring sun

Mother, affectionately calling

A bunch of furry "little hairy eggs"

Go to the set to buy a piglet and come back

Give it porridge

Mix it up

Dig wild vegetables for it

Tickle it with a corn cob

Clean the pigsty for it...

It came first, and it was also the most prosaic

In this dull day after day

Grow out

The most beautiful spring
