Palindrome Poem: Angling in the Snow

《七絕~釣雪》 回文詩 一老年人

寒江釣雪影孤舟，

漠漠煙波碧水流；

漫白玉枝冰骨樹，


遠山冬蓋遍璃琉。

In a lone boat a fisher
Is angling in the snowy river;
Beneath the hazy waves boundless
The green water's flowing ceaseless.

With jade branches and icy trunks,
Everywhere is white in sight;
The distant hills and e'erything still
Are covered by crystals bright.

《七絕~釣雪》回文詩 11 一老年人

寒江釣雪影孤舟，

漠漠煙波碧水流；

漫白玉枝冰骨樹，

遠山冬蓋遍璃琉。

回讀：

琉璃遍蓋冬山遠，

樹骨冰枝玉白漫；

流水碧波煙漠漠，

舟孤影雪釣江寒。


(Reading the original Chinese poem from the last ｃｈａｒａｃｔｅｒ backwards :)

By crystal all things are dressed tight,
Including snowy mountains far'way;
Icy branches and tree trunks white,
Everything's in white jade bright.

The flowing stream and the waves green,
Hazy smoke spreading out forever -
In a lone boat a lonely fisher
Can be seen angling the cold river.
