The Lantern Festival competes to see the lotus boat, and the BMW car picks up the cymbals;
On a stormy night, people go to the empty building, and the lonely lamp still calls for selling glutinous rice balls.

Regarding the rhyme of poetry, I personally advocate the use of modern rhyme. But the "modern rhyme" here does not refer to the rhyme of Putonghua today, but refers to the smooth rhyme that has been observed in poetry creation since Sui and Tang Dynasties. On the concept of phonology, the rhyme of China's poems has gone through three periods, namely, the so-called "ancient rhyme", "present rhyme" and "new rhyme". Ancient rhyme refers to the poetic rhyme before Sui Dynasty, among which the rhyme in The Book of Songs is the representative. Today's rhyme is a unified rhyme system in China since Sui Dynasty, which is called Pingshui rhyme. Rhyme is the phonetic system adopted by vernacular Chinese since the May 4th Movement. Today's standard Mandarin Chinese rhymes with Chinese Pinyin and vowels, which is also a new rhyme.
It is relatively simple to rhyme with the pronunciation of Chinese Pinyin, as long as the rhyme endings of Pinyin are consistent. It's just that modern poetry has strict requirements on the tone of rhyme. Modern poetry must be homophonic to rhyme. For example, flat-voiced characters must rhyme with flat and even words must rhyme with flat and even words. Homonyms between flat tones cannot be linked together. Words can be flat or flat, but wherever they are flat (Ye Zi, pronounced Xie Yun here), there are strict rules on how to be flat, and you can't mess around. In addition, many aphorisms need to use phonology. Rusheng is a special tone. Although it is also a Legato, it cannot communicate with other tones. In today's Mandarin, there is no entering tone. In the past, the entering tone characters are mostly developed in a level tone today. Such as houses, bamboo, poison and so on. It is only in dialects, especially in various dialects in the south, that the tone of entering tone is still retained.
