In the small full season, the nightingale crows freely in the lush green willow branches, and the bright moon illuminates the sky in Wan Li. I like to watch the wheat in front of the ridge at this time of year, swaying gently in the early summer wind and watching the ground fall red.
Appreciation:
Ouyang Xiu seems to like the solar term Xiaoman very much, and he also wrote "Two Songs of Four Seasons in the Pastoral (Part II)", which together with this five-character quatrain became the most widely circulated solar term ancient poem about Xiaoman, and also revealed Ouyang Xiu's yearning for pastoral seclusion. This poem has a strong sense of picture and color. We can think of green, yellow, red and blue, which is like a classic painting.
The sense of color in poetry is immersive, and the first two sentences are refreshing and a little sad, because the nightingale always reminds people of Keats' Ode to the Nightingale, Wilde's Nightingale and Rose, Andersen's Nightingale and other related literary works. The nightingale is the embodiment of a lover with the spirit of self-sacrifice, and is also a natural and joyful elf.
