This piece of running script calligraphy presents the following lines: “Spring breeze falls through the forest, greening a thousand mountains; Clear waters reflect the rosy clouds, scattering ten thousand points of red.” The poem evokes a broad and vivid scene. The first line depicts the spring breeze sweeping through the woods, with countless trees budding and a thousand mountains turning lush green—full of life and vitality. The second line portrays rippling clear waters mirroring the glow of the clouds, with countless specks of red shimmering across the surface, creating a colorful, picturesque landscape. The calligraphy itself is bold and free-flowing, with a continuous, dynamic rhythm. Characters such as “falls” (落), “reflect” (映), “rosy clouds” (霞), and “red” (紅) display lively, powerful strokes and sharp turns, seamlessly blending the poem’s sense of movement and color into the brushwork. The overall composition balances density and openness, exuding a lively energy that reflects the calligrapher’s refined skill—both steady and composed, yet naturally expressive and unrestrained.
