The poet came here with great longing for the Yellow Crane Tower, but the immortal drove the crane without a trace, and the crane left the building empty, in front of him was an ordinary river tower. "Where the yellow crane used to carry saints to heaven, now only the Yellow Crane Tower is left." The gap between the beautiful vision and the ordinary river building has laid a lost background in the poet's heart and laid a potential foreshadowing for the expression of homesickness complex.
"Yellow crane will never come again, and Baiyun will never have him" is a couplet in this poem. The natural scene where rivers meet the sky is more and more magnificent because of white clouds. Influenced by this scene, the poet's mood gradually brightened, and the feelings in his chest grew wings: the long history and beautiful legend of the Yellow Crane Tower were repeated in front of his eyes, but in the end, things changed and the crane was gone.
What can people leave to stand the test of time? She is nothing, she is making the world die, the ocean dry up, the rocks collapse, and giving up her constant nostalgia and nostalgia. This sentence is of universal significance, which expresses the poet's fantasy that the years are hard to come by and the world is at a loss, and also paves the way for writing about the infinite sadness of returning home, becoming a famous sentence with deep concern and repeated taste.
The meaning of "yellow crane" in this poem is very clear, except for the entity "crane", it should refer to "everything". Gone forever contains the endless sadness of being born at an untimely time and not waiting for people when they are old. "Baiyun" is unpredictable, which means the author's unpredictable sigh. If the word and "empty leisurely" make people see the vastness of space, then "Millennium" makes people see the infinity of time. The combination of time and space has produced a sense of historical depth and space openness, which has given birth to deep homesickness.
"Every tree in Hanyang becomes clear in the water, and Nautilus Island is a nest of sweet grass." These two sentences describe beautiful longing and emotional memories, which are very human: the sun is shining high and the blue sky is like washing. In a trance, the tree on the north bank of Hanshui River became a long-lost dear person and stood in front of us. The warm sunshine filled the river and warmed the relatives. Vaguely, Mi Fei, who was beating drums in the grass on Nautilus Island, died in the face of Huang Zu's butcher knife, shedding green grass with blood. It is the selfless dedication of countless wandering wanderers soaked in blood and tears that has built countless unforgettable hometowns.
"but I looked home, and the twilight was getting thicker? There is a sad mist on the river waves. "As the sun sets, night falls, birds return to their nests, ships return home, and wanderers return home. But where is the hometown of vagrants in the world? The river is foggy, and thick fog is born in front of you. It's a faint tear, and it's a broad homesickness that concerns the whole world. When I ask about my hometown, I feel homesick.
Faced with this situation, there is no reason for anyone to miss home. This poem ends with a "worry", which accurately expresses the poet's mood of boarding the Yellow Crane Tower at dusk, and with the metaphor at the beginning, expresses the lingering homesickness with ups and downs, reaching the implication, the feelings transmitted from inside and the echoes from outside.
This poem has a strong flavor of folk songs from scenery to words to feelings. The language is like couplets, natural and natural, with neat antithesis, harmonious melody and flying literary talent. The poet organically combines the narrow homesickness of missing relatives with the broad homesickness of caring for the whole world, and expresses homesickness in a grand and heroic way, which makes the charm and character of this poem reach the peak of its kind and become the first masterpiece of the seven laws of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in later generations.

The fairy of the past has flown away by the yellow crane, leaving only an empty Yellow Crane Tower. The yellow crane never revisited earth, there have been no long white clouds for thousands of years. Every tree in Hanyang has become clear due to sunlight, and Nautilus Island is covered with sweet grass. But I looked at my hometown, and the twilight was getting thicker, and the mist of sadness was filled on the river waves.
