Happy Rain on a Spring Night Good rain knows its time right; It will fall when comes spring. With wind it steals in night; Mute, it moistens each thing. O'er wild lanes dark cloud spreads; In boat a lantern looms. Dawn sees saturated reds; The town's heavy with blooms. —Translated by Xu Yuanchong Du Fu |
When Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu (712-770) wrote this poem, he was living in Chengdu. Sometimes he went to farm in the field. The poem shows his care for farmers.
The very first word, "good", shows the poet's joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good indeed, as it "knows" the right time to come. Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to know that it should come in time for the farmer's busy plowing (农耕) season.
When the rain comes, it appears during the night. Unlike the thunder (雷) and lightning of summer storms, the quiet spring rain makes its contributions (贡献) without being known.
In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy, showing that there will be enough rain during the night. Then the poet imagines: tomorrow morning, all of the flowers in the city will bloom (盛开) after the rain.
May Day is the day when we celebrate the end of winter and the arrival of spring. It's a time of new life, with new leaves on the trees and wildflowers growing in the woods and fields. On that day, children in Britain and other parts of Europe often make May baskets and hang them on a neighbor's door as a gift of love and friendship.
Here are the steps of making this kind of basket.
Step 1 Fold paper into a cone (圆锥形) and stick it to keep the shape.
Step 2 Cut top of the cone with scissors.
Step 3 Make two holes on opposite sides of the cone. Leave 5 cm from the top.
Step 4 Pass ribbon (彩带) through holes and tie it to create a basket handle.
Step 5 Fill your basket with different kinds of flowers.
