Soseki Natsume (1867-1916) has written prolifically over 200 Chinese poetries. For the purpose of convenience, it is divided into four periods : the first is before studying in the UK, the second is the period of the great illness in Izu which was resumed via blank 10 years of writing Chinese poetries after returning to Japan, the third is the period of the novelist with the hobby to do the Nanga style painting, the fourth is the “Meian” period during which the posthumous work was written.The subject of this paper is the early psalms of the Matsuyama and Kumamoto period classified into the first period during which it was Soseki’s student days and which he was appointed as a teacher. Soseki’s Chinese poetries often target nature. The scenic descriptive expression will be discussed in three following parts: Chapter 1 “Water and Sky”, Chapter 2 “About Color Expression”, Chapter 3 “Fiction and Reality”. Due to space limitations, only Chapters 1 is listed in this paper, and Chapter 2 and 3 are discussed in the upcoming paper.In the Chapter 1, it showed that a vast space-time that could be called cosmic, was constructed on the basis of the correlation between water and sky by studying the characteristics of Soseki’s travel verses as his student days, and also showed that such space-time had its roots in Tang poetry, especially Li Po and Du Fu poetry, and pointed out its influence including rhetorical techniques through the verification of their poetic dictions and lines.
