Adapted from: Wang Lushan Waterfall Li Bai [Tang Dynasty]
The purple mist is illuminated by sunlight, and the waterfall hangs in front of the mountain.
On the high cliff, it seems to be thousands of feet high, which makes people think that the Milky Way has fallen from heaven to earth.
The censer peak produces purple mist under the sunlight. From a distance, the waterfall looks like white silk hanging in front of the mountain. There seem to be several waterfalls in thousands of feet on the high cliff, which makes people suspect that the Milky Way fell from the sky to the ground.
The appreciation of this poem is generally believed to have been written by Li Bai when he visited Lushan Mountain for the first time on his way to Jinling around 725 AD (13th year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty).
Due to the narrow space in the poem, the poet used exaggerated metaphors to raise the scenery to a higher level, reaching the extreme of writing waterfalls, which is extremely exaggerated, but fresh and natural, simple and vivid, with a turbulent and open momentum, a law of flying and flowing, a momentum of jumping and prancing, and a momentum and characteristics of singing.
