As far away as Hanshan, the stone path is oblique, and people are in Bai Yunsheng.
Stop and sit in the maple forest late, and the frost leaves are red in February flowers.

In late autumn, there are several families in the place where the white clouds were born along the sloping road paved with stones in the distance.

Appreciate:
This is a seven-character quatrain that describes and praises the scenery of mountains and forests in late autumn. The first sentence: "Hanshan stone path is far away." From the bottom up, write a stone road, winding to the mountains and autumn. The word "cold" points to the late autumn season; The word "far" describes the length of the mountain road; The word "oblique" takes care of the word "far" at the beginning of the sentence and writes a high and slow mountain. Because the slope is not big, you can travel by car.
There are people in Bai Yunsheng, which is about clouds and people. The poet's eyes have been looking up along this mountain road. Where the white clouds float, there are several stone houses with walls made of stone. The "people" here take care of the "stone path" in the previous sentence, which is the channel for those families to go up and down. In this way, the two landscapes are organically linked. White clouds seem to be born from the mountains and float around, which can not only show the height of the mountains, but also show the pale white and bright colors of the clouds against the green background of the mountains. The poet used the technique of crossing the clouds and breaking the mountains, so that these white clouds covered the reader's sight, but left room for imagination: above the white clouds, there are mountains outside the clouds, and there must be different scenery.
The poet is only describing these scenery objectively. Although the word "cold" is used, the following words such as "late" and "frost" are just sorted out, which does not show the poet's emotional tendency. After all, it only prepares for the following description-an overview of LAM Raymond's environment. "Stop and sit late in the maple forest" is different, and this tendency is very obvious and strong. Mountain roads, white clouds and others did not impress the poet, but the evening scenery of Fenglin surprised him. In order to stop and enjoy the scenery of this mountain forest, I don't care to continue driving. The scenery written in the first two sentences is already beautiful, but the poet loves the maple forest. Through the background, I have made a good preparation for describing the maple forest, so it comes naturally and leads to the fourth sentence, pointing out the reasons for loving the maple forest.
The fourth sentence: "Frost leaves are red in February flowers" is the central sentence of the whole poem. The descriptions of the first three sentences are all paving the way for this sentence. Why do poets use "Yu Hong" instead of "Hong Ru"? Because "red as" is like spring flowers, it is nothing more than decorating natural beauty; And "Red in" can't be compared with spring flowers. It is not only brighter in color, but also more cold-resistant and can stand the test of wind and frost.
This little poem is not only an impromptu ode to scenery, but also an expression of ambition. It is the expression of the poet's inner spiritual world and the sustenance of his interest, so it can enlighten and inspire readers.
Creative background:
This poem describes a trip to a distant mountain, and the specific creation time is difficult to confirm. The author climbed the mountain in late autumn to enjoy the scenery and was intoxicated by this picturesque scenery, so he wrote this poem to commemorate it.
