In the silkworm month we branch the mulberry trees

In the days of the first we go for badgers

In the fourth month there is the flowering and seeding yao grass

In the ninth month we pound flat and hard the threshing arena in the vegetable garden

In the days of the third we take it into the ice house

In the days of the second there is the meet

In the eighth month there are rushes and sedges

In the days of the fourth we rise early, we present lamb and sacrifice onions

In the eighth month we pluck the date trees

In the fifth month the locust moves its legs

In the tenth month there is the shedding of leaves

In the ninth month it is in the doorway

In the sixth month the grasshopper shakes its wings

In the days of the third we go to plough

In the eighth month we cut the bottle gourds

In the days of the first there is a rushing wind

Make the spirits for the spring, for the benefit of the bushy eyebrows

In the eighth month we spin

In the days of the fourth we lift the heels

In the seventh month we eat melons

In the seventh month we cook the kui plant and the pulse

The wind brings the secluded fragrance of the flowers; The birds arrive to view its elegant beauty

A Playful Piece on Lily Magnolia (Bai Juyi)

Pomegranate (Pan Ni)

Looking up at the winding green branches; I see the flowers in red-cloud colour

After peach flowers have newly withered; When twin swallows have just arrived

Crabapples (Zheng Gu)

Twin-Colour Peach Flowers (Shao Yong)

The spreading twigs intertwine with the sleeves; The tender leaves catch the skirts

The leaves are thick with the edges as sturdy as rhinoceros-hide armour; The flowers are not showy with the colour as red as cranes' crown

white swallow

Pomegranate (Wen Tingyun)

Birds descended and stole a few away, holding them in their beaks like fireballs; People came to pick more, trembling on the fallen ones like broken pearls

If you wish to see the maru pile up on your plate; do not wait to mend the bamboo pergola for vines

The branches and leaves are painted in malachite green; The petals and stamens are powdered with yellow orpiment

yellow rose

Budding trees grow near and far; Jade and pearls embellish them everywhere

The fragrant jade-like arils contain immortal juice; The red textured round rinds are made with mermaid gauze

Damnacanthus indicus

She comes from Zhenla; Calling herself Little Yellow Fragrance

The wind and the dew lend her cosmetic cream; The shades of rouge blend into her skin

midget crab-apple

They are most beautiful in the rain; They are most charming when beginning to bloom

The colour resembles jade trees in the immortal land; The fragrance reminds of the Celestial Ruler's palace

Narcissus (Liu Ban)

The leaves look like diagonally ruled papers; The stems seem vertically stored scrolls

Cockscomb Flowers (Luo Ye)

Various Flowers in the Front of Shuyu Zhai (Song Qi)

All the plants do their utmost in spring flowering; But the poppy is surely the champion of all

state

The waters are still, the tower’s shadow straight; Mountains dusky where the frontier sun slants down

I rejoice that there are not many buildings; Lucky not to have the cloudy mountains blocked from view

Lake geese rise in pair after pair; When someone comes, on purpose they fare on north

Light on bamboo concentrates wilderness colors; The reflection of my cottage ripples in the river’s current

I raise my face, avid to watch the birds; I turn my head, mistakenly to answer someone

Mists open up, orchid leaves fragrant on the warm breezes; On riversides they mingle with peach blossoms to form brocade-like waves

Yingwu Zhou

The wild geese, taking along the heart's sorrow, have gone; Come the mountains, carrying the fine moon in their beak

White gulls dream of playing together in waves

grain preparation on the threshing floor

The green colour of the mountains, near or far, is luxuriant; The leaves on the trees, tall or short, are sparse

The returning traveller overlooks the open country while awaiting the ferry

The water reaches the sky when wild geese arrive

Sound of cockcrow, the moon over thatched inn; Someone's footprints, frost on the plank bridge

Fog hides the trees on the level moor; Wind carries the waves on the distant shore

The cliffs are sprayed with the cold water; The stone steps are cleaned by spring clouds

The birds perch on the trees at the pond; A monk knocks at the door under the moonlight

Beyond thousand peaks a single candle burns; At the first night watch a rain shower falls

Trees of lofty height look denser at daybreak; Mountains and hills appear more in fine weather

The wilderness moist, the misty light thin; Sands radiant, the sunlight moves slowly

I gather pinecones brought down by the wind; I hack open honeycombs as the weather gets cold

Shu’s stars are seen rarely in cloudy skies; River rain at night is heard often

The candle slants, I first see it close by; The boat grows heavy, but I never hear anything

Where the torrent runs cold you have almost made it; The forest is black, birds have surely roosted

Mountain clouds rise, filling the valley; Soaking your hedge, a stream hangs in a little falls

Tall bamboo do not let in the heat; The waves of merging streams needlessly surge

Path and rocks wind around each other; The stream and clouds go or stay as they will
