Tang dynasty: Han Yu
Flowers and trees know that spring is about to pass, and they want to keep the pace of spring and pay more attention.
Even the fickle elm tree without beautiful colors is unwilling to be lonely, dancing with the wind and turning into snowflakes flying all over the sky.

Distinguish and appreciate
This is a poem describing the scenery in late spring. At first glance, it's just a common scene of a hundred flowers blooming, but it's not difficult to find out that this poem is very clever.
Don't be embarrassed. The poet doesn't write about the flowers falling and dying in late spring, but he writes about the plants staying in spring, presenting a colorful and moving scene: flowers and trees find that spring will come back, each according to his ability, colorful and flowery. Even Yang Shuhua and elm pods, which were originally full of color and flavor, were not to be outdone, and turned into snowflakes dancing with the wind, joining the ranks of staying in spring.
The poem is nuanced, revealing secrets that predecessors have never obtained, opposing the feeling of ordinary poets dying in late spring, imitating the splendid situation of flowers and plants, and showing the elegance of late spring. A few strokes will give people an eyeful of scenery and a refreshing impression.
This poem is interesting because of its ordinary renovation. It also lies in the wonderful use of personification in poetry, combining people with flowers. Vegetation is a heartless thing, but it can know, understand and fight.
And there is a difference between "talent and thinking". Fantastic imagination is really rare in poetry. The last two sentences are particularly chewy, and readers can boldly imagine according to their own life experiences, which makes people think endlessly and have endless aftertaste.
