Extended information

This poem comes from Li Shangyin's poem.

Wherever the mourning kite is rushed, the cherry blossoms will always hang on the shore.

How long will it take for the cherry blossoms to bloom? It is unknown whether the willows will be green or the peaches will be red.

I advise you not to ask about Fangfei Festival, the storm in my hometown is miserable.

Li Shangyin was one of the few poets in the late Tang Dynasty and even the entire Tang Dynasty who deliberately pursued poetic beauty. He is good at poetry writing, and his parallel prose is also of high literary value. His poems are novel in conception and beautiful in style, especially some love poems and untitled poems, which are sentimental, beautiful and moving, and are widely read. However, some poems (represented by "Jin Se") are too obscure and difficult to understand. There is a saying that "poets always love Xikun and hate that no one writes Zheng Jian."

Li Shangyin inherited the rigorous, melancholy and frustrated characteristics of Du Fu's Qilu, and combined it with the rich colors of Qi and Liang poems and the fantasy symbolism of Li He's poems, forming a unique style of deep affection, elegance and exquisite craftsmanship. For example, "Returning to the Temple of the Holy Maiden" relies on love encounters and integrates symbols of beauty into the scenery to convey the feeling of a difficult and frustrated life experience; "Spring Rain" transfers the beauty of Li He's ancient poetry into rhymed poetry, with gorgeous language, neat contrasts, and beautiful melody. Tactful, the imagery is extremely beautiful. However, because of his tendency to use obscure allusions in his poems, the overall meaning of his poems is often obscure.
