I vaguely mentioned the blue light in my dream, but I didn't see an old friend meet and smile. What do you mean?

"In a vague dream, I mentioned the blue lantern, but I didn't see my old friends meet with smiles." It comes from the old saying "A hundred ghosts walk at night". These two poems express the poet's love for his old friend, meaning: at night, I sat alone under the lamp and stayed up all night. In the dim light, I seem to see someone approaching with a dim light. I looked intently, but I didn't see your smiling face.

These two poems vividly reflect the poet's yearning for old friends and cherish friendship.
