The collection of ancient poems describing the Yellow River is as follows:
1. The sun sets over the mountains, and the Yellow River flows into the sea. If you want to see a thousand miles away, go to the next level. ——Wang Zhihuan of the Tang Dynasty, "Climbing the Stork Tower"
Appreciation: "The sun is shining on the mountain" describes the distant view, the mountain is written about the scenery seen from climbing the tower, and "The Yellow River flows into the sea" is written about the close-up view The scenery written about water is spectacular and powerful. Here, the poet uses extremely simple and superficial language, which is both highly vivid and highly summarized of the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains that have entered the broad field of vision.
When future generations read these ten words in a thousand years, they will feel as if they are in the same place and see the scenery, and feel that their minds are opened. The second sentence is about watching the Yellow River flowing under the front of the building, roaring, rolling southward, and then turning eastward in the distance and flowing back to the sea. This is looking from the ground to the horizon, from near to far, from west to east .
When these two lines of poems are combined, all the scenery above and below, far and near, and east and west are included in the poem, making the picture appear particularly broad and far away, increasing the breadth and depth of the picture. Calling the sun "white sun" is a realistic style, and as for "Yellow River", of course it is also realistic.
2. If you don’t see it, the water of the Yellow River will come up from the sky and rush to the sea never to return. Don't you see, the bright mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and it looks like blue silk in the morning and turns to snow in the evening. ——Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty, "I am about to drink wine without you seeing me"
Appreciation: The poem begins with two neatly arranged long sentences, rushing towards the reader like wind, sea and rain. "If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky and rushes to the sea never to return." Yingyang is not far from the Yellow River. He climbed up and looked at it, so he took advantage of it. The Yellow River has a long origin and a huge drop. It is like falling from the sky, flowing thousands of miles, and heading east to the sea.
Such a magnificent phenomenon must not be visible to the naked eye. The author is imaginary and his words are exaggerated. The first sentence says that the coming of the river is irresistible, and the second sentence writes that the river is going and it is irreversible. It rises and falls, creating a reciprocating aria flavor that cannot be found in short single sentences.
Immediately afterwards, "If you don't see me, the bright mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and the morning is like blue silk and it turns to snow at dusk." If the first two sentences are an exaggeration of the spatial category, these two sentences are an exaggeration of the time category. Lamenting that life is short, but not speaking outright, an expression of scratching one's head and looking at the shadow, saying that there is nothing to do, is like a painting.
3. Far above the Yellow River, among the white clouds, is an isolated city called Wanren Mountain. Why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze does not pass through Yumen Pass. ——Wang Zhihuan of the Tang Dynasty, "Two Poems on Liangzhou"
Appreciation: The first two lines of the poem describe the vast and magnificent scenery of the northwest frontier. The first line captures the view from bottom to upstream, from near to far. The special feeling of the Yellow River depicts the moving picture of "the Yellow River is far above the white clouds": the turbulent Yellow River is like a ribbon flying up to the clouds. The writing is really a leap of mind and a broad atmosphere.
In the second sentence, "an isolated city and thousands of mountains" appear the isolated city on the fortress. This is one of the main images of this poem and belongs to the main part of the "picture scroll". "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds" is its distant background, and "Wanren Mountain" is its close background. Against the background of the mountains in the distance, we can see that the city is in a dangerous terrain and is in a lonely situation.
This can’t help but evoke the homesickness of the soldiers on the border. The poet euphemistically expressed his complaint that the emperor did not care about the life and death of the soldiers at Chengshou Yumen Pass and was unable to show sympathy to the soldiers at the frontier.
