"Winter Morning Sending Lotte" is the work of the "poetry hero" Liu Yuxi. As can be seen from the title, this is a letter poem. It was a common thing for ancient poets to be friends and write poems and sing songs for each other when they were in different places.
The title indicates the time (Winter Morning), the object (Bai Letian), and the reason for writing the poem (Rise). Liu Yuxi and Bai Juyi made friends and got close to each other through poetry, and they sang many harmonious poems to each other.
"Winter Morning Morning Sends Lottery to the Sky"
Birds are moving in the garden trees at dawn, and the remaining sound of the county building is faint.
The red embers of the lamp fall, and the white light of the wine warms up.
The hair is too young and the comb is too sharp, and the face is declining and the mirror is bright.
Whoever responds to the solo chant must send it to Luoyang City.
This is a piece of flat rhyme that rhymes with the five rhymes of the "Ba Geng" part of Pingshui rhyme. There is no problem with the structure if everything is level, level, strict, and balanced.
In terms of content, the clear writing of "starting, inheritance, transition and combination" of the work is the classic writing method of five-character poems.
The first couplet describes the poet who was relegated to another place and saw what he saw when he got up early in the morning. The couplet describes the embers going out and the lights going out, ushering in the morning light after being drunk all night. The neck couplet switches to a description of the poet's personal image, pointing out that the author who has wasted time on the road to exile has grown old. The last couplet stands out because I could not return to Beijing. Even if I wrote a poem, no one would sing it. I could only send it to Luoyang City, hoping to get a response from my friends.
The lonely image in the last couplet, combined with the sleepless night in the first couplet, strengthens the poet's loneliness and feelings of being away from home, and expresses the urgent need for comfort from friends who share the same goals.
