Updated: 2y ago

The sky leaves no trace when Pegasus flies by; one backward glance, and ten thousand years have passed. Youth blooms like brocade beneath the emerald canopy; moonlit water and mirrored flowers leave only a fleeting romance. Our spirit shakes the mountains and rivers, praised through the ages; the sword dances across the martial world, through summer and winter. When all the splendor fades, I look back at dusk; only poetry and books remain in this world. I created this list to build up experience before entering the web-novel world as a writer. I hope to learn more, so that when I write my own book, it won't flop too badly. I recommend creative, enjoyable reads. If you're looking for something to read, come have a look. I clean up the list every day, removing abandoned books and anything I find full of frustrating flaws. Feel free to recommend good books in the comments. I'll check them out when I have time, though I can't reply to everyone. If I like one, I'll add it directly.

Endless spring breezes bring green to my brows, Bells ring far away as they pass over the sands. My heart is distant, white egrets take flight, The long river runs clear, yet cannot wash away its fragrance. Why envy beauty like a painted flower, When petals fall lightly and the wind blows free? At dusk I will eat chrysa
