Oiled paper umbrella

It is a rainy day today,I stay at home and see some picture.The heavy rain make me think of the oiled paper umbrella.Which has a history of more than 400 years in China.It is traditional Chinese culture.And a poem«A Lane in the rain»written by DaiWangshu A Lane in the Rain Dai Wangshu Alone holding an oil-paper umbrella, I wander along a long Solitary lane in the rain, Hoping to encounter A girl like a bouquet of lilacs Gnawed by anxiety and resentment. A girl The color of lilacs, The fragrance of lilacs, The worries of lilacs, Feeling melancholy in the rain, Plaintive and hesitating. Silently she comes closer, Closer,giving me A glance like a sigh; Then she floats past Like a dream, Dreary and blank like a dream. Like a lilac Floating past in a dream, the girl floats past me; Silently she goes further and further, To the crumbling wall, Out of the lane in the rain. In the mournful melody of the rain, Her color has faded, Her fragrance has disppeared, Vanished into the void; Even her glance like a sigh, Melancholy like lilacs. Alone holding an oil-paper umbrella, I wander along a long Solitary lane in the rain, Hoping to pass A girl like a bouquet of lilacs Gnawed by anxiety and resentment. It is very beautiful, isn't it?
