What kind of poet is Ai Qing?

Ai Qing is regarded as one of the representative poets of China's modern poetry.

Ai Qing's poetry inherits the fine tradition of the May 4th New Literature with its close combination with reality and full of fighting spirit, and has become an important achievement in the development of new poetry with its exquisite and innovative artistic style. This not only reflects the author's artistic talent, but also bears in mind his serious and arduous artistic practice. In his poems, the full enterprising spirit and rich life experience bring something different.

Ai Qing's poetry has a vivid and profound image, and with the end of the poem, this image is completed. Image refers not only to people, but also to the visualization of things and ideas.

Ai Qing's poems do not stick to appearances in form, and pay little attention to rhyme and uniformity of lines, but use regular parallelism and repetition to create a unified change.
