Early Summer by Lu You, a poet in the Song Dynasty. The content of the whole poem is: Liu Huai becomes rainy and dusty, and cherry cheese tastes fresh. Since ancient times, Jiang Zuo has many beautiful sentences, and summer is shallower than spring. Sophora japonica has lush foliage and fresh air, and there are new cheese and fresh cherries on the market. Since ancient times, there have been many beautiful sentences describing the land on the left side of the Yangtze River. Early summer is more charming than spring. Although we don't live in Jiangzuo, after the rain in Beijing, there will be times like this in Jiangzuo occasionally. The development of logistics also allows this former frontier to taste cherry cheese at any time. Although there are countless beautiful sentences in the history of Jiangzuo, it does not prevent us from enjoying this lovely early summer.
Poetry makes full use of the characteristics of Song poetry, highlights the visualization of early summer, and combines the elements at the beginning and the end just right. Lu You lived in an era when ethnic contradictions were extremely acute in the history of China. After the national subjugation in the Northern Song Dynasty, the Lin 'an regime in the Southern Song Dynasty not only failed to make up its mind to recover lost territory, but was bent on making peace with the Jin people. But this poem is fresh in style and the summer scenery is vivid. No anger, no shouting. Times are chaotic. Lu, why do you say that? It may be that the summer harvest crops are full of vitality, which inevitably gives birth to the expectation of peace and prosperity, or it may be that the natural beauty and seasonal food in front of him make him temporarily forget the troubles and worries of being born in troubled times.
