Tang Bai Juyi
Gushan Temple is in the north of Jiating West, and the water surface is flat at the foot of the cloud.
Several early songbirds compete for warm trees, and their new swallows peck at the soil in spring.
Colorful spring flowers will gradually fascinate people's eyes, and shallow spring grass can barely cover the horseshoe.
I love the eastbound lake and the white sand embankment under the shadow of Populus davidiana.
Introduction: A Spring Tour of Qiantang River is selected from Bai Changqing Collection. It is also a famous seven-character poem about the West Lake. This poem is about the West Lake in early spring, which is very distinctive. After reading it, I will fall in love with lakes and mountains like a poet. This poem was written by Bai Juyi when he was appointed as the historian of Hangzhou in July, 822 AD (the second year of Changqing).
From the north of Gushan Temple to the west of Jiagongting, the spring water on the lake is just flush with the dike, and the white clouds overlap with the waves on the lake. (2) Several early orioles scrambled to fly to the sunny tree, and the new swallows in the tree were nesting with spring mud in their mouths. (3) Various colorful spring flowers will gradually fascinate people's eyes, and the shallow spring grass can just cover the horseshoe. I like the beautiful scenery on the east side of the West Lake best, but I haven't visited enough, especially the white sand embankment under the green shade.
Appreciation: This poem is like a short and pithy travel note, starting from Gushan and Jiating and ending in Hudong and Bai Causeway. Along the way, I enjoyed singing and dancing in the beautiful scenery of lakes, mountains, green mountains and green waters, intoxicated by birds and flowers. Finally, I walked along the white sand embankment and left reluctantly under the Liu Yin. My ears are still echoing the hymn of spring played by everything, and I can't help but shed a beautiful poem "Qiantang Spring Tour" full of natural integration.
structure
The first couplet focuses on the big picture and writes about the scenery seen by Gushan Temple. The first sentence is position, and the second sentence is vision. "Chuping" refers to spring water, which is slightly flat with the embankment. "Low cloud feet" means that the white clouds are low and connected with the lake, and the outline of early spring is outlined. The calm water at the foot and the low-hanging cloud curtain in the sky constitute a quiet ink painting of the West Lake. The whole poem has tight structure, strict meter, neat antithesis, fluent language and vivid and natural tone, which embodies the characteristics of popularity and fluency. Generally speaking, the poet describes the spring on the lake and is good at describing the scenery on the way. He chose the combination of typical and classified arrangement: writing four most beautiful spring scenes in the middle, combining animals and plants, and having a unique style. He is also good at grasping the characteristics of the scenery and using the most expressive words to describe and render it.
Artistic feature
Sentimentality in the landscape is the main feature of this poem. It not only writes a strong feeling of spring, but also writes a strong feeling of natural beauty. In the poem, feelings are attached to the scenery, and between the lines, the joyful and relaxed feelings and delicate and fresh feelings about the spring scenery of the West Lake are revealed.

Bai Juyi is a famous poet and writer with far-reaching influence in the history of China literature. His poems have a wide range of themes, diverse forms and popular language, and are known as "Poet Saint" and "Poet King". Bai Juyi was born in Taiyuan, Shanxi, and later moved to Xiayi (now Linwei District, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province) and Xinzheng, Henan Province (now Xinzheng, Zhengzhou).

Bai Juyi's former residence memorial hall is located in the suburb of Luoyang. Bai Yuan (the tomb of Bai Juyi) is located at Pipa Peak in the south of Luoyang. Bai Juyi's father later became a county magistrate in Gongxian County, Henan Province, and became friends with his neighbor Xinzheng County magistrate at that time. Seeing the beautiful scenery of Xinzheng, his family moved to Xinzheng. Bai Juyi was born in Dongguozhai, Xinzheng County (now Xinzheng, Henan Province) on the 20th day of the first month in the seventh year of Tang Daizong Dali (AD 772). He lived in Xinzheng until he was 12 years old, and then moved to Jiangnan to escape the war in the Central Plains. Five cases of relocation will last for six years. He wrote 7 1 volume of Bai Changqing, 50 new Yuefu and1Qin Zhongyin, and was the most creative poet in the Tang Dynasty. Bai Juyi was smart since childhood and studied very hard. After reading it, his mouth was sour and his hands were worn out. Young, all white hair. Up to now, there are still allusions such as "a little knowledge" when he was born seven months ago and "Bai Juyi is in Gu Kuang" when he first arrived in Chang 'an. His poems have a wide influence not only in China, but also in Japan, Korea and other countries. Together with Yuan Zhen, he launched the "New Yuefu Movement" called "Bai Yuan Style". Bai Juyi lived in Xiangshan, Luoyang for a long time in his later years, hence the name "Xiangshan Jushi". In August of the sixth year of five Huichang cases (AD 846), Bai Juyi died of illness in Luoyang and was buried in Xiangshan, Luoyang, at the age of 75. After his death, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty Li Chen wrote a poem to mourn him. The poem said, "Who taught Minglu to be a poet for sixty years?"
