Wuyue's poems

Appreciation of the second paragraph of Mount Tianmu in a Dream;

In the second paragraph of Li Bai's "Dream on Mount Tianmu", this sentence is "My heart and dream are in Wu and Yue, and I cross the mirror lake on a moonlit night."

Described the charming realm of roaming Tianmu Mountain in a dream with a romantic style. The scene is magnificent, full of passion and imagination. It also shows the poet's rich imagination, his rebellious spirit of cynicism, dissatisfaction with the dark reality and contempt for feudal dignitaries, and his strong desire for freedom and pursuit of personality liberation.
