At sunset, I was cruising on Taihu Lake, and the blurred scenery under the smoke was sad. Isn't history through the ages like water waves covered by this vast smoke wave? Who cares about those tedious and silent things?

(1) Autumn Lake is a simple poem with literary and emotional appeal. The poet not only pointed out that things are fleeting and unpredictable, but also expressed his thinking and exploration of the value of life. For thousands of years, people have different views on it.
(2) The first sentence of this poem describes the time and place of boating in autumn, which is concise; Then the scenery on Taihu Lake was revealed in one sentence, which also set off the poet's mood. These two sentences not only describe the scenery, but also express feelings, which are born from the scenery, with feelings and thoughts, and are integrated with the scenery. In particular, the word "sorrow" directly expresses the poet's anguish. There is a line in Cui Hao's poem "Yellow Crane Tower", "But I look to my hometown, and the twilight is getting dark, and there is a sad mist on the river waves." The same is the sunset, the same is the smoke wave, although the poet thinks differently, but the mood is the same.
(3) This is a work on Huaigu Lake, which reflects a negative thought of the ups and downs of the world. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu and Yue were two neighboring vassal states, both in today's Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, which were closely related to Taihu Lake. Therefore, the poet boating on the lake, the autumn wind bleak, sunset curled up, eye-catching, sad everywhere. But in history, the story of wuyue's hegemony is the easiest to arouse feelings. At that time, Wu was destroyed and became more and more overbearing, which has become a thing of the past. Therefore, it is said to be "ups and downs" and has long been lost. Nobody asked. The whole poem reveals the poet's helplessness to reality.
(4) The beauty of this poem is that it is too lazy to talk. In a few words, the past and the present, the reality, the scenery and the emotion are integrated, and the past and the present are unified, and the reality is combined, regardless of the situation.
