Spring poetry

In short, nature is eternal, new and extravagant, and it is true.

Excerpt from Thirty Poems written by Hao Wen of Jin Yuan (IV)

Tao Yuanming's poems translated today are plain and natural, giving up delicate and flashy decoration, revealing true and simple beauty and making people read them forever.

Appreciating these two sentences is an evaluation of Tao's poetry. The first sentence says that the style of choosing words and making sentences is clean and not false, and it glows with new brilliance in indifference and peace. As Zhu Zhu's folklore said, "The poems of Yuan and Ming Dynasties are so high that they don't need to be arranged that they naturally flow out of their chests. Dongpo is a piece of rhyme and harmony. Although it seems effortless, it loses its natural interest. " The second sentence is about the expression of his temperament, which is really simple and honest and unpretentious; The meaning of this sentence comes from Huang Tingjian's poem "Farewell to Yang", "The fur is peeling off, only the truth exists". The All-China Federation summed up Tao's poems with the words "nature" and "truth", which is characterized by vivid images and rich words. The second sentence is mostly used to praise the natural beauty of works of art with simple and uncultivated style.

The original text is natural and eternal, and luxury is all there. Tao Yuanming himself is an ancient man, but that doesn't prevent him from still being a A Jin dynasty man.
