"The reeds are sparse, the sunset leaks rain, and I haven't crossed the river for a long time." This is a picture with sound. The sun sets and the afterglow is oblique. There is a boat floating on the boundless river. From the chanting of the poet in circles on the lonely river, we can see that the poet still has no intention of crossing the river. Singing is particularly clear and lonely on the twilight river, which makes readers wonder why the poet has been boating on the river for a long time.
"Only the crane knows what I mean. It always sticks its foot into the window of the ship." I wrote about the poet's loneliness. The cranes seem to understand my feelings, and they seem to be listening to my singing and accompanying me in boating, so that the poet can't help but pour out his heart to them. The poet regards crane as his confidant, which reflects his yearning for returning to nature after getting rid of officialdom.
The words in this poem are easy to understand, the object is lyrical and lively, simple and charming, natural and interesting, fresh and pleasing to the eye.
The poet was repeatedly criticized for his integrity and daring to speak. Nowadays, only waterfowl is considerate to accompany them, which implies the sinister officialdom and points out their loneliness.
