What are the characteristics of Lu You's poems?

There are more than 9300 poems in his collection of poems. It can be roughly divided into three periods: the first period is from adolescence to middle age (46 years old) before entering Shu. There are only about 200 poems in this period, and the works are mainly in the form of words, which have not been enriched by life. The second period was after he entered Shu, he abdicated at the age of 64 and returned to the East. After nearly 20 years, more than 2,400 poems have been preserved. This period is full of fighting spirit and patriotic passion, and it is also the mature period of his poetry creation. The third period was a long-term seclusion in his hometown of Yin Shan until his death, also for 20 years, with nearly 6,500 existing poems. There is an idyllic flavor in the poem, which reveals a sense of desolation in life from time to time. "Poetry only works when no one loves it", which also expresses his state of mind and artistic realm at this time. In addition, in the poems of this period, there are also simple and practical creative styles. In Lu You's poems in three periods, the fervent patriotism runs through, especially after he entered Shu in middle age, which is not only outstanding among contemporary poets, but also rare in the history of China literature. Lu You's poems can be said to have both styles, no matter they are classical, metrical and quatrains, they all have excellent works, among which seven verses are well written. In this respect, Lu You inherited the experience of predecessors and enriched his own creation at the same time, so some people say that he, Du Fu and Li Shangyin completed the "three changes" in the creation of the seven laws (Shu Wei's poem "A Bottle of Water"), and his seven laws were unparalleled at that time. In Lu You's "Seven Laws", the famous Zhang Jun's sentences are indeed overlapping, and everyone is reciting them, such as "Jiang Sheng's endless heroes hate and God's will is selfless" (Huangzhou); "Wan Li closes the river and sleeps alone, even the wind and rain fall in four mountains" ("Sleeping Man") and so on. These excellent works and sentences, either magnificent or fresh and picturesque, are both steady, vivid and not delicate to the works. In addition to the seven laws, Lu You's achievements in poetry creation should be regarded as quatrains. Although Lu You's poems present colorful styles, from the general creative tendency, they are mainly realistic. He inherited the fine tradition of Qu Yuan and other previous generations of poets to care about the country and the people, and made outstanding achievements based on his own era.
