I Call On Censor Yuan But We Do Not Meet (Meng Hao Ran)
In Luoyang I call on a gifted scholar
To Jianling he has been exiled
I've heard it said the plum blossoms flower early [in Jiangling]
But it can't compare to this place [Louyang] in spring
袁: surname Yuan
拾遺: This means to appropriate someone else's property, but in this case because it is right after the person's name, it more likely is a reference to his title. Red Pine uses "censor" as the title.
流人: someone in exile
何如: This is used to compare what comes after the phrase to what is in front. The thing that comes after is usually "better" than the thing in front.
