The Pear's Belly Poem by Luo Zhihai

Even when the lotus root breaks, the fibres still hold together, the lotus heart is bitter
Its meat tender and its skin thin but the pear's belly is sour
In a square of the quiet cottage, heart is calm and at ease
Several volumes of the leisure poetry, dream is peacefully

梨腹


丝连藕断莲心苦
肉嫩皮薄梨腹酸
静舍一方心自若
闲诗几卷梦安然
