Poetry: Purple smoke comes from Rizhao incense burner, and waterfalls hang in front of distant Sichuan. On the high cliff, it seems to be thousands of feet high, which makes people think that the Milky Way has fallen from heaven to earth.
Commentary: The incense burner peak produces purple mist under the sunlight, and a waterfall hangs in front of the mountain like a white silk from a distance. There seem to be several waterfalls in thousands of feet on the high cliff, which makes people think that the Milky Way has fallen from the sky to the ground.
Poetry appreciation:
This is a landscape poem written by the poet Li Bai when he lived in seclusion in Lushan Mountain at the age of about fifty. This poem vividly depicts the magnificent scenery of Lushan Waterfall and reflects the poet's infinite love for the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. The first sentence is "Purple smoke from the Rizhao incense burner". "Incense burner" refers to the incense burner peak of Lushan Mountain. This peak is in the northwest of Lushan Mountain, with a sharp and round shape, like a censer.
Because of the waterfall, water vapor transpiration, in the bright sunshine, seems to have an indomitable spirit. Purple smoke rises from the incense burner in Ran Ran. A word "life" brings the scene of smoke rising to life. This sentence set a magnificent background for the waterfall, and also rendered the atmosphere for the following direct description of the waterfall.
The second sentence is "overlooking a thousand waterfalls in Sichuan". The word "overlooking the waterfall" takes care of the title "overlooking the Lushan waterfall". "Hanging thousands of rivers" means that the waterfall is like a huge white practice, hanging straight from the cliff to the river ahead. The word "hang" changed from dynamic to static, and Visha wrote about the waterfall in the distance.
