The fresh scenery in early spring is the poet's favorite. The tender leaves of the green willow branches sprout and the goose yellow is uneven.
If the flowers bloom in Beijing, the city will be full of people who appreciate them.
Original text:
Early spring in the east of the city
Don Juyuan Yang
The poet Jing Qing is in the Spring Festival, and the green willows and yellow are half uneven.
If you stay in the forest, then you are a flower watcher when you go out.
Extended data:
The main idea of this poem is that the poet's best time is the Spring Festival, especially when the willows have just sprouted yellow buds. If the royal garden is full of flowers, people will come everywhere to look at the flowers at that moment, and it is boring to write poems. This poem is just plain on the surface, but it contains another profound philosophy, which is a metaphor for the early cultivation and exploration of talents.
Creative background:
The specific writing year of this poem is difficult to verify. Judging from the third sentence of the poem, the "city" in the title refers to Chang 'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. Juyuan Yang has worked in Chang 'an for many years, and has served as Dr. Taichang, Minister of Ritual and Secretary of the State Council. This poem should have been written during his tenure in Beijing.
