Appreciation of works

This poem describes the power of the wind. As far as the seasonal function of "wind" is concerned, the autumn wind can wither all trees, but the spring breeze can teach all flowers to bloom; The last two sentences describe the place where the "wind" goes in different scenes: when the wind crosses the river, the waves on the water surface surge; When I entered the bamboo forest, I saw the bamboo poles leaning together.

wind, as an image of nature, is invisible and intangible, and can only be felt by the individual's heart or known by the change of external objects. Therefore, there is no word "wind" in the whole poem, nor does it directly describe the external form and explicit characteristics of the wind, but it shows the tenderness and toughness of the wind through the change of the original or original state of foreign objects under the action of the wind.

It can be seen that the poet is familiar with and clear about the common sense of things. Under the support of this common sense of life, the poet skillfully shows the characteristics of the wind through the deformation of foreign objects, and indirectly describes the various modes of the wind, which makes people really feel the tenderness and charm of the wind.
