Du Fu's Spring Rain Poems

Good rain knows the season, when spring comes.

Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently.

The wild path is dark, and the river is bright.

Look at the red and wet place, the flowers in Jinguancheng are heavy.

Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night is a poem written by Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. This poem describes in detail the characteristics of Chengdu spring rain and the scene of rainy night with great joy, and enthusiastically eulogizes the timely and moist spring rain. The poet uses anthropomorphic techniques to describe the spring rain, which is subtle, delicate, vivid and vivid. The whole poem is elegant in artistic conception, quiet in meaning and integrated with painting. This is a poem about rain, with vivid and unique charm.

This poem was written in the spring of the second year of Shang Yuan in Tang Suzong (76 1). After a period of exile, Du Fu finally settled in Chengdu, Sichuan due to the drought in Shaanxi, and began a relatively stable life in Shu. When writing this poem, he had lived in Chengdu Caotang for two years. He cultivates self-cultivation, grows vegetables and flowers, and interacts with farmers. He has deep feelings for the spring rain, so he wrote this beautiful poem, describing the rain on a spring night and nourishing everything.

This is a masterpiece depicting the rainy scene on a spring night and showing a happy mood. Praise "rain" with a "good" word from the beginning. In life, "good" is often used to praise people who do good things. Praising rain with "good" now will arouse the association of people who do good things. Next, personify the rain, saying that it "knows the season" and knows how to meet the objective needs. Among them, the word "knowledge" is used incisively and vividly, which simply brings the rain to life. Spring is the season when everything germinates and grows. As long as it rains, it begins to rain. It's really good.
