Appreciation
The reason why this poem is recited by people is because it uses a distinctive artistic image to It truly reflects some of the common feelings of ordinary travelers in feudal society.
"Starting in the morning to recruit the priests" describes the scene in the hotel in the morning. "Get up in the morning", click "Go early". The poet painted us such a picture at the beginning: when we get up early in the morning, the jingling of carriage and horse bells is already ringing inside and outside the hotel. This sentence is extremely concise and summarized. From the sound of "Zheng Duo", we can imagine that some of the passengers are busy roping their horses, and some are driving out, which is very lively.
"A traveler is sad for his hometown." Although this sentence came from a poet, it represents the voice of many travelers. In the past, transportation was inconvenient and people in a foreign country were not familiar with people. In short, people at that time were relocating and were afraid to travel far. The word "sad" indicates the sad mood of the guests who are far away from home and whose future is uncertain.
"The sound of roosters echoes in the moonlit Maodian, and the sound of human traces in Banqiao is frosty." These two sentences are well-known. Both poems use nouns, representing ten kinds of scenery: chicken, sound, thatch, shop, moon, people, traces, planks, bridges, and frost. The content is rich and the images are combined in multiple ways to form various scenes. For example, "rooster sound", "rooster" and "sound" are combined, and the poet thinks of the image of a rooster crowing. Similarly, "Maodian", "human traces" and "Banqiao" will also remind people of different pictures.
In order to ensure safety, travelers in ancient times usually "settled in before it was too late, and looked at the sky early when the rooster crows." Since this poem is about traveling early, the sound of the rooster and the moon are very distinctive scenery. Maodian is also a scenery with mountainous characteristics. The five words "rooster crows and moonlight in Maodian" vividly describe many aspects of travelers living in a thatched cottage. When they hear the crowing of roosters, they get up to look at the sky. When they see the moon in the sky, they pack their bags and prepare to go on their way. . Similarly, Banqiao, Shuang and human traces on Shuang are also characteristic scenery. When the rooster crowed and the night was dim, the poet got up and set out. Unexpectedly, there were already people everywhere outside, and he was not too early to leave. These two sentences describe the scene of the early departure in a vivid, vivid and vivid way.
Similarly, for early travelers, Banqiao, Shuang and the human traces on Shuang are also distinctive scenery. The author set out on the road when the rooster crowed and the waning moon had not yet set, which can be regarded as an "early journey"; however, it was already "the frost on Banqiao". This is really "if you go early, there are even more early travelers"! These two poems, which are composed purely of nouns, make the scene of the morning trip vivid in the mind. They can indeed be regarded as good poems with "contained images".
The two sentences "The oak leaves have fallen on the mountain road, and the orange flowers are shining on the post wall" describe the scenery just after setting off on the road. There are many tangerine trees and oak trees in Shangxian and Luonan areas. The leaves of the oak tree are very large. Although they dry up in winter, they remain on the branches; they will not fall off until the branches are about to sprout buds in the early spring of the next year. At this time, the white flowers of the tangerine tree are already blooming. Because it is not yet bright, the white orange flowers next to the post wall are more conspicuous, so the word "明" is used. It can be seen that the poet has never forgotten the word "morning".
The scenery of the early journey reminded the poet of the scenery of his hometown that appeared in his dream last night: "The geese are full of Huitang." Spring has come, Duling, his hometown, the water in the pond is warm, and the geese are enjoying themselves. Happy; but I am far away from home, resting in thatched shop and running around on the mountain road. "Dream of Du Ling" complements the feeling of homesickness in the Maodian at night, and echoes the beginning and end of "A traveler is sad for his hometown"; and the scenery of his hometown in the dream is in sharp contrast with the scenery on the journey. What I see in my eyes is "the mountain road with fallen oak leaves", and what I think in my heart is "the pond is full of wild geese". The scenery and emotion of "early departure" are perfectly expressed. "Morning Journey to Shangshan" Ancient Poems and Appreciation 2

Appreciation:
This poem is selected from "Notes on Wen Feiqing's Collected Poems" by Tang Dynasty poet Wen Tingyun. It was written by the author on his way to Shangshan when he left Chang'an for Xiangyang to join Xu Shang.
The reason why this poem is recited by people is that it truly reflects some of the common feelings of ordinary travelers in feudal society through distinctive artistic images. The main idea of ??the whole poem is: the sound of roosters crowing from the thatched shop under the dim moonlight, the pedestrians' footprints are imprinted on the desolate white frost of Banqiao, the fallen leaves are scattered all over the mountain road, the orange flower blooms and disappears outside the inn, and the silent environment evokes The dream of a wanderer last night arose: There should be countless waterfowl playing in the pond in my hometown, right? "The rooster sings in the moonlit cottage, and there are frosts on Banqiao. The leaves fall on the mountain road, and the orange blossoms shine on the post wall." These two lines of poems reflect the desolation and loneliness of the poet at that time. "When we get up in the morning to march for the Duo, we are sad for our hometown when we travel." and "Because of the dream of Du Ling, the geese are full of birds returning to the pond." These two poems express the poet's homesickness. The whole poem is closely linked to the two words "Morning Journey:", describing the scene and expressing the poet's infinite melancholy and frustration in life. A "sad" child not only expresses the longing for his hometown, but also implies the sadness of being far away from his hometown.
The whole poem expresses the poet's long journey, the hardship of missing his hometown and the feeling of loss and helplessness due to his unsatisfactory career.
