Xie Tiao is an active participant in "Yongming Style". He applied the four-tone Yongming Law to his poetry creation, making the tone of poetry fluent and harmonious, catchy and sonorous.
Such as its "You Dongtian":
We share joys and sorrows and enjoy happiness hand in hand.
Looking for the cloud-tired pavilion, looking at the mushroom pavilion with the mountain.
The distant trees warm the building, and the smoke is boundless.
Fish play with new lotus, birds scatter flowers and fall.
If you don't smell spring wine, you still look forward to Qingshan Guo.
Like Xie Lingyun, Xie Tiao is also a master at cutting epigrams. His epigrams are neat, harmonious, smooth, fresh and meaningful, which embodies the characteristics of "new style poetry" In the poem quoted above, it is mentioned that "the sunset is scattered into beautiful scenery, and Chengjiang is as quiet as practice"; "The river flows day and night, and the guests are sad"; "The boat is known in the sky, and the river tree is distinguished in the cloud" and so on.
Xie Tiao is a representative poet of Yongming style. He was not only famous at that time, but also had a far-reaching influence on the prosperity of Tang poetry later. Even great poets such as Li Bai and Du Fu were fooled. Li Bai spoke highly of Xie Tiao in the poem "Singing the Moon at the West Tower of Jinling".
Meditate for a long time under the moon,
Hope in the eyes of ancient people.
Quiet as an exercise,
It is memorable for Xie Xuanhui.
