Author: Machilus chinensis
The shade of ancient wood is a short awning, and the stick thistle helps me cross the east of the bridge.
The clothes are wet and the apricot blossoms are raining, and the face is not cold.
"translation"
Park the boat in the shade of an old tree on the shore; Walk across the east side of the bridge with crutches and enjoy the spring scenery.
The drizzle in the apricot blossom season, like deliberately wetting my clothes, kept raining; The breeze blowing on the face can no longer feel the chill, and the green wicker dances with the wind, which is particularly embarrassing.

Appreciation of whole poem
This poem describes the beautiful scenery of spring, not the general description of birds and flowers, mainly the wind and rain in spring. "Spring Breeze and Spring Rain" is also a common phenomenon, but the author writes it with color and taste, which is really touching. It reflects the exquisiteness of the author's observation and the skill of writing. Visible, seemingly simple words, after careful tempering, so full of charm. Based on his feelings, he wrote about his joy in spring outing, expressed his love for life, and also showed readers an infinitely beautiful world in spring.

Zhinan's living condition has not been tested, and he was not as popular as "Four Poets of Zhongxing" and "Mr. Er Quan" in the literary world at that time. But this little poem, with its delicate feelings and true description of early spring and February, recorded its name in the history of Song poetry.
