Original text:
In front of my window,
there is a white birch,
as if coated with silver frost,
Wrapped in snowflakes.
The fluffy branches,
the snow-embroidered lace,
the clusters of flowers blooming,
the white tassels like painting.
In the hazy silence,
this white birch stands like a jade tree,
in the brilliant golden light
glistening crystals Bright snowflakes.
The white birch is surrounded by
The belated morning glow,
It adds another layer of silver to the snow-capped branches
of brilliance.

Appreciation
The first section mainly talks about the characteristics of white birch. Use "silver frost" and "snowflakes" to describe the image of a birch tree that is completely white. The word "Tu" accurately expresses the fine white bark on the trunk of the birch tree; the word "Phi" personifies the birch tree, indicating the birch's love for pure white and highlighting the nobility of the birch.
The next section writes about the branches and leaves of the birch tree. Since the white birch is covered with snowflakes, the leaves that have not yet been completely shed are covered with soft snow, and the "furry" white treetop tips set off the purple branches, as if the birch tree is lined with a "snow" Embroidered lace". The fluffy snow branches are as beautiful as clusters of blooming flower spikes and tassels. This sentence reminds us of Cen Shen's famous saying: "Suddenly a spring breeze came overnight, and thousands of pear trees bloomed." The author used his imagination to praise the image of birch trees standing proudly in the cold after snow.
In the third section, the author always writes about the beauty of the white birch’s quiet and moving temperament. "Silence" is modified with "hazy". This is the author's way of communicating with the senses to describe the subtle and noble spirit of the white birch. "Jade Stand" describes its uprightness, its noble temperament, and its extraordinary Out of the ordinary. "Brilliant golden glow" sets off its splendor. The two verbs "yuli" and "shining" highlight the quietly standing white birches without losing a special dynamic beauty.
In the last stanza, the poet places the white birch under the reflection of the morning glow. "Wandering" uses personification to accurately and delicately describe the process of the morning glow, and "slowly arriving" highlights the nature of the morning glow. The beauty of the shape further highlights the beauty of the white birch. The white birch under the morning glow has the meaning of "wrapped in red and plain, especially enchanting".
In short, the first two stanzas of this poem focus on describing Bai Birch’s external image, while the last two stanzas focus on expressing Bai Birch’s inner temperament. In order to highlight the image and temperament of Bai Hua, the author depicts it from many aspects and angles, either from the front, or from the side, striving to create a clear and vivid image.
