The Creative Background of Twelve Poems from Baling to Li
"Baling to Send Li Twelve" is the work of Wang Changling, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, and Baling is now Yueyang. The poem says that the mountains and rivers are far behind autumn scenery. In the sunset, I saw reeds floating and flying, blending with the clouds in the sky. In this landscape of water and sky, the two poetry wizards temporarily forgot the troubles of life, raised their glasses and sang songs about wine.
There is a story in Wang Changling's poem "Ba Ling Send Li Twelve". When Wang Changling went to Baling, he met Li Bai by chance. One is a "poetic immortal" and the other is a "four-line sage". They hit it off when they first met. By the river, they paddled the boat, talked about wine and talked about poetry. Wang Changling wrote Twelve Poems from Baling for Li Bai, which expressed the deep friendship between Wang Changling and Li Bai.
