中国元旦古诗
元日(玉楼春)——(宋)毛滂
一年滴尽莲花漏，碧井屠苏沉冻酒。
晓寒料峭尚欺人，春态苗条先到柳。
佳人重劝千长寿，柏叶椒花芬翠袖。
醉乡深处少相知，只与东君偏故旧。
甲午元旦——(清)孔尚任
萧疏白发不盈颠，守岁围炉竟废眠。
剪烛催干消夜酒，倾囊分遍买春钱。
听烧爆竹童心在，看换桃符老兴偏。
元旦试笔(选一)——(明)陈献章
天上风云庆会时，庙谟争遗草茅知。
邻墙旋打娱宾酒，稚子齐歌乐岁诗。
老去又逢新岁月，春来更有好花枝。
晚风何处江楼笛，吹到东溟月上时。
丁卯元日——(清)钱谦益
一樽岁酒拜庭除，稚子牵衣慰屏居。
奉母犹欣餐有肉，占年更喜梦维鱼。
钩帘欲连新巢燕，涤砚还疏旧著书。
旋了比邻鸡黍局，并无尘事到吾庐。
