Fireworks in March, Yangzhou's "fireworks" describe the scenery of spring fog, catkins and flowers, referring to gorgeous spring scenery. This poem comes from the farewell of the Yellow Crane Tower to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou by Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty.
Yellow Crane Tower: Yellow Chicken located in Sheshan, Wuchang, Wuhan City, Hubei Province, belonging to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. According to legend, during the Three Kingdoms period, the vertical reed potato in Fei Yi died of the Yellow Crane here, so it was called the Yellow Crane Tower. The original building was destroyed and the existing building was restored on 1985. Meng Haoran: Li Bai's friend. One: Go and arrive. Guangling: Yangzhou.
Old friend: Old friend, this refers to Meng Haoran. He is older than Li Bai and enjoys a high reputation in the field of poetry. Li Bai admires him very much and has deep feelings for each other, so he is called an "old friend". Remarks: Goodbye. Fireworks: describes the misty, catkin-like and flowery scenery in spring, and refers to the gorgeous spring. Down: Down the river.
Appreciation of Yellow Crane Tower's Farewell to Meng Hao's Remnant Mausoleum
The phrase "an old friend said goodbye to the West Yellow Crane Tower" is not only for the sake of making a point, but also because the Yellow Crane Tower is a world-famous scenic spot, which may be the place where two poets often get together and hang out. "Fireworks descend in Yangzhou in March", and the word "fireworks" was added to "March", smearing the atmosphere of that poem in the farewell environment.
Li Bai has been sending his friends to the boat, and the boat has already left, while he is still watching the sails in the distance by the river. "Just watching the Yangtze River flowing in the sky" is the scene in front of us, not just writing about the scenery. The poet's heart rises and falls, just like a stream of spring water rolling eastward.
