Comment on Bai Juyi's Poem Chun Qing Loves Friends

Feel the spring with friends in Los Angeles.

Don't grieve for the moon in Jinguyuan, and don't sigh for the spring in Tianjin Bridge.

If you learn to be sentimental and look for the past, what doesn't hurt people?

To annotate ...

Comment and analysis

It is still difficult to combine poems, because the content of the combined poems and the original poems should be consistent with each other, and they should see differences in the same and grow together. The original poem of this poem can no longer be tested, but there are traces to follow. Judging from the tone of the first two sentences, the original poem seems to be a work that hurts spring, and perhaps it also has the sadness of historical vicissitudes. The poet used the word "Mo" to express his disapproval of the superficial feelings in his friends' poems. The third issue points out that the essence of friends' poetry is nothing more than "expressing worries for adding new words", and then forces a problem to an abrupt end. This question is very embarrassing, which not only tells the bitterness of life, but also tells the poet's creative proposition and aesthetic pursuit of not getting sick. The whole poem is fluent in language and full of emotion, quite like a folk song.
