The lotus leaves touching the sky are blue, and the lotus flowers reflecting the sun are uniquely red. ---Yang Wanli "Walking off to Lin Zifang at dawn from Jingci Temple"

When the sun rises, the flowers on the river are as red as fire, and when spring comes, the river is as green as blue. ---Bai Juyi's "Recalling Jiangnan"

The frost has not killed the luxuriant grass, and the warm sun has begun to dry up the desert sand. The leaves of the old zhejie are as yellow as those of young trees, and the branches of cold cherry blossoms are as white as wild flowers.

---Bai Juyi's "Early Winter"

Mountain Lu is showing off beside the Nandou. The screen has nine folds of clouds and brocade, and the shadow falls on the bright lake with its blue and green light. There are two long peaks in front of the Golden Tower, and three stone beams hanging upside down from the Milky Way. The Xianglu Waterfall looks across from each other in the distance, and the back cliffs and barriers tower over the sky. Green shadows and red clouds reflect the morning sun, and birds cannot fly to Wu Tianchang. ---Li Bai's "A Ballad from Mount Lu to Lu Shiyu's Xuzhou"

Spring Trip to Qiantang Lake

---Bai Juyi

North of Gushan Temple and west of Jia Pavilion, The water is initially flat and the clouds are low.

Early orioles are vying for warmth in several places, while new swallows are pecking at the spring mud.

The wild flowers are becoming more and more charming, and only in Asakusa can there be no horse hooves.

My favorite lake is the east side of the lake, with its green poplar shade and white sand embankment.
