The whole poem is popular in North China.

Northern popular poetry

Candle dragon lives in a cold door, and its brilliance is still blooming.

Why don't the sun and the moon shine like this? Only the north wind came up angrily.

Yanshan snowflakes are as big as seats, and pieces of them blow off XuanYuanTai.

You miss your wife in December. Stop singing and laugh.

Looking at the pedestrians by the door, it's sad to miss the Great Wall.

Don't mention the sword to save the border pass, but leave the tiger, gold and hairpin.

There is a white arrow in the forest, spiders spin webs and dust.

The arrow is not empty, people die today and never come back.

I can't bear to see it. Burn it to ashes.

The yellow river can hold soil, and the north wind hates rain and snow.

Yanshan snowflakes are as big as seats, and pieces of them blow off XuanYuanTai.

This is Li Bai's famous sentence describing snowflakes. The Yanshan Mountains are located in the southeast of Jixian County, Hebei Province, generally referring to the north of China. Xuanyuantai site is located in Qiao Shan Mountain, Huailai County, Hebei Province. It is said in the sentence that "the snow is as big as a seat", which is a high artistic exaggeration, but it is a fact. Just as Lu Xun said in the article "Talking about Comics": "Yanshan Snowflakes are as big as seats" is exaggerated, but Yanshan is a little frank, so we can know at once that Yanshan was so cold. If the snow in Guangzhou is as heavy as one seat, it will be a joke. "

Appreciation of works:

(1) "Popular North", Yuefu's "Song of the Scenes" was renamed, and the content was mostly the sadness of rain and snow in the north wind and pedestrians not returning.

(2) Candle dragon, the dragon in ancient China myths and legends. People live in cold doors in the far north where the sun can't be seen. They open their eyes during the day and close them at night. Candle dragon lives in a cold door, but it is still as bright as day.

③ This refers to Youzhou, located in Daxing County, Beijing. Why is there no sunshine in the secluded state where the sun and the moon shine, and only the north wind roars all over the sky? This means that An Lushan ruled the north at that time, and it was dark.

④ Yanshan Mountain, the name of the mountain, on the north side of Hebei Plain. Xuanyuantai is a memorial building for the Yellow Emperor, located on Qiaoshan Mountain in Huailai County, Hebei Province. These two sentences describe the scene of heavy snow and cold climate in the north with exaggerated tone.
