The Blooming Pomegranates Light The Palace Walls

Another puzzling poem

The Blooming Pomegranates Light The Palace Walls

Today we have another somewhat perplexing poem. The Chinese here is relatively easy to read and understand, but it’s not easy to figure out precisely what this poem means. As was the case with the first poem, the character referred to here hasn’t been properly introduced to the reader just yet, and won’t be for quite a few chapters. This is a poem that we will eventually return to; be patient.
