Extended data

The first song captured the scenery of Jiangnan in the spring of one year, full of vitality and colorful. The phrase "flowers on the riverside win the fire at sunrise" describes the spring flowers on the riverside reflected on the first day, which are redder than flames. It shows the vibrant state of blooming flowers in spring, and makes people feel the rich and warm beauty of spring in Jiangnan.

The second sentence says, "The river is as green as blue in spring." Spring water is rippling and blue waves are thousands of miles away. The poet exaggeratedly described it as greener than blue grass. This dark green contrasts with the fiery red of the above sentence.

The second word begins with "Jiang Nanyi, the most unforgettable thing is Hangzhou", and the first three words "Jiang Nanyi" are connected with the last three words "Recalling Jiangnan" of the first word to form the continuity of meaning. The last five words "Hangzhou is the most unforgettable" highlight the author's favorite Jiangnan city.

The third poem is not as good as the first one or the second one in terms of ideology and art, and it is about singing and dancing life, so many anthologies are not introduced. In fact, writing is not entirely without merit. Although the first two words are also about people, they are mainly about scenery. The third song goes to Wu Palace, but it is mainly about people, kabuki in Suzhou and the poet himself.

Bai Juyi was a great poet with great influence in the middle Tang Dynasty. His poetic thoughts and creations, which emphasize popularity and realism, occupy an important position in the history of China's poetry.

Bai Juyi's thought integrates Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, mainly Confucianism. Mencius said that "being rich will help the world, and being poor will be immune to it" is the creed he followed all his life. His ambition of "helping the world and the people" is mainly based on Confucian benevolent policies, including the theory of Huang Lao, the technique of treating filial piety and the method of applying Korea; His mind of "being alone" absorbed the concepts of contentment, uniformity and freedom of Laozi and Zhuangzi and the Buddhist thought of "liberation".
