Elegant Rhymes. Poem by Luo Zhihai

素韵


苍松对弈，任凭世上风云变
彩墨洒泼，默许画中龙凤翔
菊秀水柔，竹曳千姿呈素韵
莺啼月朗，花开百态显春光


Elegant Rhymes


Green pines play chess
in the world
whatever amidst the winds of change
Colour ink splashes
in the picture
acquiesce in dragons and phoenixes fly

Chrysanthemums are beautiful and water is soft
bamboos shaking thousand postures
show elegant rhymes
Orioles crow and the moon is bright
Flowers in hundred posture bloom to show spring light
