A Spring Morning
This spring morning in bed I'm lying,
Not to awake till the birds are crying.
After one night of wind and showers,
How many are the fallen flowers?
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
This poem (write) by Meng Haoran(689—740), who lived during the Tang Dynasty.
It might be one of the (famous) poems about spring in China. People like to read it they wake up on a spring morning.
Meng didn't directly say how much he loved spring. Instead, he wrote about the details（细节）of the season: the birds, wind, rain showers and fallen flowers. His descriptions（描述）of these things showed (we) the joy he felt during springtime.
Meng chose to write about the sounds of spring. These sounds allow readers (picture) spring using their own imagination.
