Chinese Butterfly Painting
Two Mandarin ducks playing in the water
A pair of Mandarin Ducks
Playing in the cold water
The drake clad in his colored tux
Preening for his demure lover
They splash and swim in unison
Like little ducklings frolicking
A sincere love in season
So caught up in their rollicking
The drake chases his lady
As she coyly paddles away
He wants to make her his baby
Before she can get away
Soon their eyes lock in affection
Captured in conjugal bliss
A symbol of wedded connection
Their beaks in a gentle kiss

I found this vivid and exquisite poem on the Internet, which impressed me very much. Here I just share it with you. Compared with Chinese classical poem about mandarin ducks, this poem is easier to be understood without abstruse moral meaning. While I should figure out that mandarin ducks are romantic and desirable animals as a symbol of long-lasting and happy relationship in Chinese culture. So hanging mandarin duck in the South West sector of the house can betoken happy and harmonious marriage life.
