original work
Birds returning home on the river in autumn night, though tired, carry the sunset. Flap your wings and set the sunset on the river; Reed with white heads has also been made into beautiful moments.
In the 1920s, poets who wrote new poems were greatly influenced by old poems, so all the new poems at that time had a strong style of old poems. In addition to writing in vernacular, the artistic conception and expression of poetry are often not much different from those of old poems. This is a major feature of poetry at that time. The same is true of Liu Dabai. Although he tried to write a pure vernacular poem, this poem still followed the original requirements of classical poetry in terms of meter, so we can still see the traces of its influence from old poems. "On the Autumn Night" was created in this environment.
