In the two poems "where petals have been shed like tears and and lonely birds have sung their grief", the rhetorical devices of duality and personification are used. In the two poems, each pair is opposite.
personification with flowers and birds makes people feel sad when they leave, and flowers also splash tears, and birds are also shocked. Although the two theories are different, their spirit can be interlinked, one is touching the scene and the other is empathizing with things, which shows the richness of good poetry.
Origin: Spring Watch is a poem written by Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty. The first four sentences of this poem focus on painting landscapes (mountains and rivers, vegetation, flowers and birds), but there are feelings in the landscape (broken, deep, tearful and shocking), and there are intentions in the landscape (feeling the time and hating parting). The last four sentences focus on lyricism, which means borrowing things to express feelings (breaking "letters from home" and scratching "hoary heads"), and there are scenes in love.
original:
though a country be sundered, hills and rivers endure, and spring comes green again to trees and grasses.
where petals have been shed like tears, and lonely birds have sung their grief.
after the war-fires of three months, one message from home is worth a ton of gold.
I stroke my white hair. It has grown too thin, to hold the hairpins any more.
Translation:
Chang 'an fell, the country was broken, and only mountains and rivers remained; Spring has come, and the sparsely populated Chang 'an city is densely covered with vegetation.
Being sentimental about state affairs can't help but make tears splash and birds sing, which only increases your sadness, so don't hate.
The continuous war has lasted for more than half a year, and letters from home are rare, and one letter is worth ten thousand taels of gold.
I'm worried, scratching my head and thinking, and my white hair is getting shorter and shorter, so it's almost impossible to insert my hair. Extended information

In June of the following year, the rebels captured Tongguan, and Tang Xuanzong fled to Sichuan in a hurry. In July, Prince Li Heng was located in Lingwu (now Ningxia), which was for Tang Suzong, and changed the Yuan Dynasty to Germany.
when du fu heard the news, he settled his family in Duzhou and went to the suzong court alone. unfortunately, he was captured by the rebels on the way and sent to Chang' an, but he was not imprisoned because of his humble position. In the spring of the second year from Tang Suzong to Germany (757), Du Fu, who was in the occupied area, witnessed the scene of a depression in Chang 'an, and he wrote this famous work that was told for generations.

From the beginning, I describe the bleak scenery of the capital, to tears when I watch spring flowers, and resentment when I hear birds singing; Then I wrote that the war lasted for a long time, so that there was no news at home. Finally, I wrote about my own sorrow and aging, which were intertwined and progressive, creating a realm that could arouse people's * * * sounds and deep thoughts.

About the author: Du Fu, with beautiful words, is a great realistic poet in Tang Dynasty, and is called "Li Du" together with Li Bai. Originally from Xiangyang, Hubei Province, he moved to Gongxian County, Henan Province. In order to distinguish Li Shangyin and Du Mu from "Little Li Du", Du Fu and Li Bai are also called "Great Li Du", and Du Fu is often called "Old Du".
As a teenager, Du Fu traveled to wuyue and Qi Zhao successively, during which he went to Luoyang. After the age of thirty-five, I took the exam in Chang 'an first, and came last. Later, he presented a gift to the emperor and presented it to the nobles. The officialdom was frustrated and witnessed the extravagance and social crisis of the upper class in the Tang Dynasty. In the fourteenth year of Tianbao (755), the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Tongguan fell, and Du Fu moved to many places.
In the second year of Ganyuan (759), Du Fu abandoned his official position and went to Sichuan. Although he escaped from the war and lived a relatively stable life, he still cared about the whole life and the state. He created famous works such as Ascending the Mountain, Spring Hope, Northern Expedition, Three Officials and Three Farewells. Although Du Fu is a realistic poet, he also has a wild and uninhibited side. It is not difficult to see Du Fu's heroism and dry clouds from his masterpiece "Song of the Eight Immortals in Drinking".
The core of Du Fu's thought is the Confucian idea of benevolent government, and he has the grand ambition of "to be a gentleman and to be a gentleman, and then to make the customs pure". Although Du Fu's fame was not prominent when he was alive, his fame spread far and wide, which had a far-reaching impact on China literature and Japanese literature. About 15 poems of Du Fu have been preserved, most of which are collected in Du Gongbu Collection.
In the winter of the fifth year of Dali (77), Du Fu died of illness at the age of 59. Du Fu's influence on China's classical poetry is far-reaching, and he is called "the sage of poetry" by later generations, and his poems are called "the history of poetry". Later generations called him Du Shiyi and Du Gongbu, and also called him Du Shaoling and Du Caotang.
