Today at 3:20
We ushered in: Qingming
Of the twenty-four solar terms, there is only clarity

Peach blossoms bloom and willows turn green
The warblers are long and the wind and rain are light
Everywhere gives people a sense of freshness and clarity

Qingming · Three Waits
A waiting for Tong Shihua
White tung flowers begin to bloom
The second field mouse turns into a wagtail
The yin-loving voles returned to the cave
The three rainbows began to see
Rainbows begin to appear after the rain

Qingming poetry
During the Qingming Dynasty, the rain is pouring,
Pedestrians on the road want to break their souls.
Where is the restaurant?
The shepherd boy refers to the apricot blossom village.
- Tang Dumu, "Qingming"
Good wind and moon clear night,
Bi Masonry Red Xuan Thorn Historian.
Alone around the cloister to rest,
Listen to the strings and watch the flowers darkly.
- Tang Baijuyi, "Clear Night"
The emperor is clear and clear, and the people's hearts are worried about themselves.
The sound of the car on the road, willow color East City Green.
Flowers and grasses bloom together, and warblers and butterflies play double play.
The empty hall sat and reminisced, drinking tea and chatting on behalf of drunkenness.
--Tang Meng Haoran, "Qingming is a Matter"
The most beautiful April day on earth
Grass warblers fly good season
It coincided with a light rainfall
Thoughts are long and long

Exchange precious lives for the heroics of our tranquility

In order to better cherish life
