This poem does not describe the branches and leaves and flower shapes of plum blossom, but deliberately writes the character of plum blossom "cold ling bloom alone" and its refreshing "dark fragrance".

But he still stubbornly stuck to his political ideals. This poem expresses the author's ideological character and affection as always with a touching artistic image.
