Since ancient times, poets and poets have lamented the depression, desolation and emptiness of autumn. I say autumn is far better than spring. It's crisp in autumn and clear in Wan Li. A crane soaring in the sky, pushing away the stratus clouds, also inspired my poems to fly to the clear sky in Wan Li.
In 805 AD (Yongzhenyuan), Shunzong ascended the throne and appointed Wang to reform the state affairs. Liu Yuxi also took part in the innovation movement, but failed and was demoted. However, he has a strong psychology of seeking differences. He wants to be different in everything and refuses to follow suit. Two Poems in Autumn was written when he was demoted to Sima in Langzhou.
Appreciation of works:
This poem about autumn is lively and lively, which shows the poet's positive and optimistic mood. The first two sentences are arguments, which directly express the view that autumn is better than spring. The last two sentences, the image of a white crane in a clear sky, vividly express the poet's heroic optimism. The poet deeply understands that the essence of sorrowful autumn in ancient times is that people with lofty ideals are frustrated, disappointed with reality and pessimistic about the future, so they only see the depression in autumn and feel lonely and lifeless.
The poet sympathizes with their experience and situation, but disagrees with their pessimism and disappointment. In response to this feeling of loneliness, he said that autumn is better than the spring when all things sprout and flourish, emphasizing that autumn is not lifeless, but very lively. He guided people to see cranes flying high. In the clear autumn sky, the clouds are straight up, vigorous and powerful, and promising. Obviously, this crane is unique and lonely.
But it is the tenacious struggle of this crane that broke through the cold breath of autumn, created a new scene for nature, and filled people with lofty ideals with vitality. This crane is the embodiment of indomitable spirit and struggling spirit. Therefore, the poet said, "Then bring poetry to Bixiao".
Poetry is ambition. People will not feel lonely if they are really ambitious and have the spirit of struggle. This is the theme of the first poem.
