This is the essence of poetic beauty, which shines in the rolling wheel of history and the struggle between old and new things.
Send a call to people: life should have ideals and pursuits. The deep meaning of the poet's call for action is that people should always cheer up, summon up courage, live actively, have ideals and pursuits, be not afraid of any difficulties, ride the wind and waves, and finally succeed.

The origin of poetry:
In ancient times, when information technology was underdeveloped, it was very inconvenient for people to transmit information from one area to another, so they compiled the written poems into songs and the poems came from people's mouths. Poetry originated from ancient social life, which is a rhythmic and emotional language form due to labor production, sex and primitive religion.
Poetry is the lyrics. In actual performances, it is always sung with music and dance. Later, poetry, song, music and dance developed independently and became independent adults. Distinguish songs from poems by entering music or not. Music is a song, but poetry is not. Poetry is a kind of language art, which is differentiated from songs, and songs are a kind of music literature with a long history. The Book of Songs is sung with music. Technically, it is a song. Because of this, The Book of Songs is regarded by scholars as a symbol of the maturity of China's music literature.
