Yang Wanli was a famous poet during the Southern Song Dynasty, and many of his poems described summer. His summer is fresh, vibrant, and full of fun, whether it is depicting natural scenery or expressing his mood, it is always so grounded and empathetic. The summer he experienced, we have also experienced, but he can find many good things and get more happiness from the details of life. I love Yang Wanli's poetry, it is the height of summer, let's take a look at the summer in his eyes!
The springs are silent and the water is silent, and the shade of the trees loves the water.
The little lotus only showed its sharp horns, and there were dragonflies standing on its head.
--Song Yang Wanli, "Little Pond"
Where does summer begin? Yang Wanli noticed this small pond. The scent of summer is clear and gentle. The spring was silent, as if cherishing the fine flowing water. The shade of the trees shines on the surface of the water, a sense of leisure, as if I like the sunny and clear weather! The small lotus leaf pulled out of the water, revealing the sharp green horns, and there were already dragonflies standing on it. It's a season full of fun! In the early summer of the pond, the curtain of summer has slowly begun.
Spring in full bloom is always chased by people, and in the poet's view, summer is also cute, not inferior to spring.
Not only is spring and summer also good, but the flowers and plants are a career.
Deer onion unplugged long handle, golden phoenix still blooms the smallest flower.
--Song Yang Wanli, "Summer Sentences"
Each season has its own style and beauty, not only the spring is fresh, but the summer is also very moving. Look at the flowers and plants growing luxuriantly, as if they were the masters of heaven and earth. Deer onions are long, while golden phoenixes bloom small flowers. They are all welcoming summer with their enthusiasm, embracing the world, and why shouldn't the poet be?
Summer is coming, naps are indispensable, the ancients are so leisurely, it is really enviable, I have not taken a nap for a long time.
Plums leave sour soft teeth, plantains divided into green and window screens.
Day long sleeps up and thinks ruthlessly, idly watching children catch willow flowers.
——Song Yang Wanli, "Idle Early Summer Nap"
After eating plums, the sour taste has not gone for a long time, it is very domineering, and the teeth are about to be soured. The plantains are turquoise, covering the window screens, and even the window screens seem to have become green. The day is getting longer, and I took a nap, which is really boring. But soon the poet was no longer bored, and he found children outside running and catching willow flowers, which aroused his interest, and he watched leisurely, and his heart overflowed with joy, as if he were the innocent child who did not know sorrow!
In Yang Wanli's pen, children are often the protagonists, no matter what season, he will always find that those innocent and happy children are always easy to be infected by them.
When the rain is dry on a clear and windy day, the grass is full of flowers and the water is full of water.
The boy Liu Yin was sleeping, and a cow had eaten Liu Yin Xi.
--Song Yang Wanli, "In the Mulberry Tea Pit Road"
After the rain, the first sun is clear, the wind is blowing lightly, and the rain is gradually drying. The creek is filled with water, and the willow trees next to the creek are covered with wildflowers and wild grasses. The children herding the cattle were already asleep in the shade of the willow trees, while the cows were leisurely eating grass, and before they knew it, they had eaten to the west of the willow shade! One cow and one child, how comfortable!
Yang Wanli not only likes to observe children, but also likes to have fun with children, he is really childlike!
Song yin a half-bow moss, occasionally want to read and lazy.
Playing with banana leaves in the clear spring, children mistakenly recognize the sound of rain coming.
——Song Yang Wanli, "Idle Early Summer Nap Up Two Absolute Sentences"
Take a nap, people are not yet energetic, what to do? There was a half-bow moss growing under the pine shade, and he wanted to read a book, but he didn't bother to open it. Bored, I picked up the spring water to pour the plantains, and the children who were playing heard the sound of asphalt, thought it was raining, and were startled! At this time, the poet also seems to be involved in children's games, and he can't help but laugh. What a mischievous gentleman!
Summer mountain residence, the most quiet, like walking into a ghostly dream. Summer is coming, why not go to the mountains to stay?
There are few sideburns, but many books but poor.
Where the firewood gate is sparsely bamboo, in the middle of the thatched huts in the mountains.
When you dream, you can remember, and you have to work at the end of idle questions.
I don't know how to repay the summer, in order to restore the self-groaning wind.
--Song Yang Wanli, "Mountain Residence"
The two sideburns are getting thinner and balder, and time is merciless. Although there are many books, there is no bright future. In the middle of this green mountain, the sparse bamboo forest is covered with simple firewood gates, and the mountains overlap, as if isolated from the world. The dream is quiet, idle to write a few poems. If it weren't for the sound of cicadas, but still don't know, summer has arrived. Chant alone in the wind, like a recluse! If so, who wouldn't want to spend the rest of their lives in the midst of green mountains and waters?
Summer rain, said to come, there is a passion, watching the summer rain, always let people feel extremely relaxed, as if unloading all the load, let all the troubles and distractions, with the torrential rain, all flow away.
For a rainy feeling, listen to the sound of the stream flowing.
The wind is chaotic, the green brocade mattress, the cloud mo thousand ridges cui yao screen.
- "Excerpts from The Rain"
A rain suddenly came, it was really a good mood, everything in the world seemed to be welcoming this rain, listening to the stream, the flow was very cheerful, and the sky was also flowing with joy. The strong wind blew away the 10,000 acres of plains, and the green fields were like a quilt covered with brocade, tumbling at the moment, dark clouds rolling, and countless towering mountains, like screens made of jade, did not move!
Yang Wanli is very fond of lotus flowers, and with the embellishment of lotus flowers, summer is more perfect. Otherwise, his poems about summer will lose most of their color!
After all, in the middle of June in West Lake, the scenery is not the same as the four o'clock.
The lotus leaves are infinitely blue, and the lotus flowers are different red.
——Song Yang Wanli, "Sending Lin Zifang out of Jingci Temple"
In June at West Lake, the scenery is very different from other seasons. The boundless lotus leaves spread to the sky, green bright spirit, and the lotus flowers under the sun are particularly red, red and green, contrasting, but complementing each other, green leaves and red lotuses, creating a beautiful scenery in The West Lake in June! The summer lotus flower has become a business card of the West Lake, famous for all ages, and is still the summer punch card for many tourists.
Lotus flowers often have red and white colors, which one does the poet prefer- it is too small, can't we all laugh at it?
Red and white lotus flowers bloom together, two colors and a boat of incense.
Just like the three thousand women of the Han Temple, half of them are heavy makeup and half light makeup.
--Song Yang Wanli, "Lotus Flower"
In this pond, there are red lotuses and white lotuses, red, red and white, although they are two colors, but they are full of pleasant fragrances, and they are sent to the boat. It's like the three thousand palace girls in the Han Temple, half of the heavy makeup, half of the light makeup, each with its own wonderful points, let people indulge! And why do you have to distinguish between the high and the low? People who love flowers, regardless of color, are generally loved!
Yang Wanli not only loves the beauty of lotus flowers, but also is full of pity for lotus flowers in the hot summer.
The grass shook its head and ignored the nong, and the shawl blocked a west wind.
The lotus flowers are still hot in the twilight, and the low side is hidden in the green umbrella.
--Song Yang Wanli, "Twilight Swim on the Lotus Pond"
In the evening, when the heat did not fade, the poet came to the lotus pond to cool off. The wind came, and the grass on the shore shook its head, as if to inform the poet, fast, fast, the wind was blowing. Open your clothes, really want to keep the wind. It's really hot, but the poet is more concerned with the lotus flower. Looking at the lotus flower is also afraid of heat, at this time still bowing its head, hidden deep in the lotus leaf bush like a green umbrella, it is really wronged.
When the weather is too hot, it may not be cool even at night. I believe that everyone has such an experience, and it is too hot to sleep. And Yang Wanli's era, there is no fan, no air conditioning, hot weather, how can people be good?
The night heat is still the same as the afternoon heat, and the door is opened in the middle of the moon.
Bamboo deep tree dense insect song, sometimes there is a slight cool is not the wind.
--Song Yang Wanli, "Chasing The Cool on a Summer Night"
It was already night, but the weather was still as hot as it was at noon, so I went out the door and stood for a while in the bright moonlight. Cooling has no effect, you have to go after the cool! Where is it cool? Walking to the depths of the bamboo forest, I can only hear the chirping of insects, occasionally there is a slight coolness, but it is not the wind! The poet is also very helpless, this chase is only afraid that it will continue, and no one wants to go back to the steamer-like house!
It still needs a rain to temporarily expel the heat and make people feel refreshed.
A summer rain and a cool, really love the day long.
The water and wind come to know intentionally, for the fragrance of ten miles of rice flowers.
——Song Yang Wanli, "Summer Moon Frequent Rain"
It's hot in the summer, and a rain finally brings coolness, which is really enjoyable. Through the rain, the wind sends a gentle aroma of rice flowers, making people more intoxicated, and also in this coolness and fragrance, yearning for the harvest in autumn! Smooth wind and rain, and abundant grain are the greatest wishes of farmers!
In the summer of Yang Wanli, there are good-looking, there are also fun, and there are delicious ones.
The bees come from Wanxi, and although the two wings are not insects.
Not like the honey at the bottom of the lotus flower, Fang Cheng jade pupae did not become a bee.
--Song Yang Wanli, "Lotus Seed"
The bees are from Wanxi, right? Although it has no wings, it is already like an insect. It is not like a product of a lotus flower, but it is more like a jade chrysalis, which has not yet grown into a bee! Yang Wanli likes lotus flowers, and also loves to eat lotus seeds, this affection, from the eyes to the mouth, one by one experience, is so intense.
Yang Wanli's summer makes people fall in love, and the summer I am experiencing is as cute as the summer in poetry. Moreover, today's people, compared to Yang Wanli's era, can be much more convenient, there are artificial coolness, there are fruits from all over the world, and there are endless lotus flowers that can be appreciated on mobile phones, if you are not happy anymore, you are not happy anymore, it is simply impossible to say. No matter what season, what environment, first have a good mood, the eyes can see a good scenery!
