Poems by Li Rugyu

And Yu Qian matters to an township 谯楼
　　　　　　
While Emperor Tongle is bestriding Dongting Island, King Tongle is building this tower。
The scenery is not unique, the mountain people look back。
Meet people ramble car public track, leaning against the sill deep fan old worry。
The beginning of this day, Qiankun more travel back。
 

Meng Jiang Female Temple
 

The year of the dead girl？Wailing before death。
Sound thoroughly bone city tilting block, a little sad spring。
Yellow soil merciless fan butterfly dream, green mountain intentionally complaining cuckoo。
Qi Liang has long become withered grass, still supporting the breeze into sweat。
