Appreciation of Walking in Late Autumn
The author of this poem expresses a feeling of vitality and hope. The first two sentences, "autumn is not necessarily sad, but cold is pleasant." Perhaps the chill of autumn is easy to cause people's sadness, and sadness is autumn in their hearts, so the ancients often feel sad about autumn. Therefore, when the ancients described autumn, they were often sad.
Because of this, the poet mentioned at the beginning that autumn is not entirely sad, and the slight coolness brought by this autumn wind is not the most comfortable weather! The word "lovely day" makes the whole cold autumn suddenly vivid and makes people jump out of the bleak situation instantly!
