Learning the Meaning of the Poem
Shirley Created Picture & Calligraphy for the Poem April 5, 2008
April 4 to April 6 is the traditional Chinese Qing Ming Festival -- Tomb-sweeping Day, the time to honor dead ancestors, family members, lovers, and friends and so on. So, there are many art works of literature, music and painting to express the hearts of people on this da.
The poem Qing Ming by Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu is one of the most famous ones. So, today, Saturday, April 5, 2008, I created this painting according to the meaning of the poem:
It is raining one after one during the Tomb-Sweeping Day,
the pedestrians' hearts would be broken on the road.
May I ask where any restaurant is?
A cowboy points to distance
-- it is in the village around of the apricot flowers...
Also, I have written this poem with Chinese calligraphy on the painting. Now, I would like to combine them with the music that I had created and I had sung one year ago together, also what I have written about this poem. I am thinking, if time allows, I will also sing it in English and hope what I have done will be a little bit help to you to learn Chinese culture and learn Chinese language.
