Poetry: The river in front of Huangshi Pagoda flows eastward. The warm spring makes people feel lazy and sleepy. I walk slowly forward leaning on the warm spring breeze. Clusters of blooming peach blossoms seem to be left unattended. Do you like dark red or light red peach blossoms?

"In front of Huangshi Pagoda, east of the river", write the specific location. "Spring is lazy and sleepy, leaning on the breeze" describes one's own tiredness. People tend to be lazy in the warm spring, so they lean on the wind to take a rest. In the third sentence, the poet switches from the spring breeze and people's feelings to writing about peach blossoms. In the poet's pen, although the peach blossoms are gorgeous, they have no owner and have to bloom quietly. It really feels like "things are different and people are not the same". This peach blossom "opens without an owner" is exactly the loneliness that the poet wants to express, and it is also the poet who uses the beautiful scenery to express his sadness.
