Poetic nature of children's ice making in ancient poems

The whole poem highlights a "naive" word. The scene of children making ice in the poem is full of fun: psychologically, it is cold to "make ice" and childlike innocence is hot; In terms of color, the gold plate is colored with silver ice; Formally, it is a "silver plate" with a "gold plate", which is round; On the sound, there is a high-pitched sound of "jade sound through the forest", which suddenly becomes a crisp sound of "broken glass". The whole poem is full of sense, good in sound and meaning, and pleasing to the ear, which vividly shows the children's full interest in taking ice as a pheasant and enjoying themselves.
