In the spring of 759 AD (the second year of Gan Yuan, Tang Suzong), Li Bai was exiled to Yelang for the case of Li Lin in Wang Yong, passing through Chongqing. When I went to Baidi City, I suddenly received the news of pardon, and I was pleasantly surprised. Then I went to Jiangling by boat. This poem was written when the author returned to Jiangling, so the title of the poem is Xiajiangling.
works appreciation
This poem describes the Yangtze River from Bai Di to Jiangling, with fast-flowing water and ships flying.
The first sentence is about the height of Baidicheng; The second sentence is written in Jiangling Road, and the ship is fast; Three sentences fly into the boat, accompanied by the sound of mountain shadows; Four sentences write that the boat is as light as nothing, pointing out that the water is like diarrhea.
The whole poem combines the poet's happy mood after forgiveness with the grandeur of the countryside and the smooth and light sailing along the river. With exaggeration and whimsy, the writing is graceful and elegant, shocking the world, unpretentious, arbitrary and natural.
