In terms of poetry, she inherited and developed her grandfather Shangguan Yi's style of writing, attached importance to the formal skills of poetry, paid more attention to the beauty of sound and ci, and was good at reflecting the exquisiteness of things, all of which thought that ci was a school. When she looked up to appreciate nature, she felt as if she had escaped from the tedious palace life and completely integrated into the embrace of nature. She made a lot of contributions to the development of the theme of landscape poems in Tang Dynasty, which made them full of landscape feelings, but more natural landscape charm.
She not only made great achievements in poetry creation, but also played an important role in the prosperity of the literary world and the improvement of the artistic level of poetry at that time. There are 32 poems by Shangguan Waner in the whole Tang poetry. Her poems paved the way for the pastoral school of landscape poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
For example, her poem "The Book of Bitterness" is particularly well written: "I miss you more than Wan Li when I got married. The dew is fragrant and cold, and the moon is empty. I want to play Jiangnan music, and I am greedy for giving books to the north. There is no other meaning in the book, but I have been gone for a long time. "
