Does Xu Zhimo's Poem Annala belong to modern free verse?

Yes

Nora in shian is the last of the eighteen poems written by Xu Zhimo 1924 when he visited Japan with Tagore. For a singer in Japan, it is also the most influential and widely circulated one, which is included in the poetry collection "Poems of Shima".

The most is the gentleness of that bow.

Like a lotus, the shyness of the cool breeze is overwhelming.

Take care of yourself, take care of yourself.

There is sweet sadness in the treasure-

Shian, Nora.

Parting is always sad, but it is also unforgettable. The poet just caught this scene before leaving, and let time condense in this other moment. "The most is the gentleness of that bow." The girl closed her affectionate eyes and bowed her head. At this time, she is extremely delicate, and the author compares it to "a water lotus's invincible shyness to the breeze", and Bai Shuilian bowed her head shyly. We know that "water lotus" is a symbol of purity. Zhou Dunyi once wrote in "Love Lotus": "Love Lotus alone, never touch mud, clear but not demon." Therefore, the author skillfully outlines a pure girl image from the side.

Repeatedly writing "take care" can better reflect the author's feelings of parting. Since parting is doomed, it is better to leave more sweet wishes. Buddha said that looking back 500 times in the past, in exchange for passing by in this life. Now that we know each other, how can we leave? Therefore, the author's blessing is also full of subtle sadness. In the end, a thousand words were reduced to one sentence: "Shianna!"

Although the full text is only 48 words, it shows us a different farewell picture, and the refined words render the picture beautiful, which fully embodies the beauty of poetry and painting and music pursued by the author.
