At first glance, there is a new home between the beams and the mud has been re-fed.

When Yanzi first came, the house had just been built, and Liang 'ao doors and windows were all new. Then I saw swallows nesting in the mud, and then I saw them coming and going frequently, catching insects and feeding their chicks.

Shuang Yan was worried about the swallow in the nest, only worried about flying too far, coming back too late, hungry children, not afraid of flying very low and hitting pedestrians.

This poem is full of fun and praises Yan. The first two sentences praise the swallow's hard work: busy building a nest with mud and feeding the swallow frequently. Words such as "first sight", "new", "recovered" and "frequency" appropriately reflect the diligence of swallows, and the poet's love and praise for swallows are permeated between the lines. In the last two sentences, write the intimate and harmonious relationship between the swallow and the owner of the house.

"Worrying only about traveling far away and coming home late" is a pun, which not only describes that the swallow who is far away from home is homesick, but also describes that the owner cares about the swallow and is afraid that it will travel far away and come home late, thus revealing the close relationship between the swallow and people, and "not afraid of flying low and hitting people", further revealing the close relationship between the swallow and people. Such a swallow image is undoubtedly beautiful.
