The early winter in the south of the Yangtze River is as lovely as the spring scene, and the early winter in Bai Juyi's pen is intoxicating.
Bai Juyi's poem "Early Winter", with its delicate and nuanced brushstrokes, vividly depicts the beautiful scenery of early winter in the south of the Yangtze River.
In the poem, "the weather in Jiangnan is good in October, and the poor winter scenery is like spring", the warmth of early winter and spring reflect each other, showing the unique seasonal charm of Jiangnan. The "frost is light but does not kill the grass, and the desert sand is dry at the beginning of the warm day" depicts the softness and tranquility of early winter, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling.
In addition, Bai Juyi also used the two sentences "the old leaves are yellow like tender trees, and the white branches of the cold cherry trees are wild flowers", which set off the old trees and new leaves, cold cherry blossoms and white flowers, forming a beautiful picture. And in the end, "at this time, I envy the idlers and get drunk, and the five horses have no reason to enter the restaurant" expresses the poet's yearning and helplessness for a leisurely life.
The whole poem, with its fresh and refined tone and unique perspective, shows the beauty and charm of early winter in the south of the Yangtze River.
Bai Juyi's "Early Winter" allows us to appreciate the unique charm of early winter in the south of the Yangtze River, and at the same time expresses the poet's yearning for a leisurely life. May we all find the poetry and beauty of that life.

Bai Juyi (Tang) "Early Winter"
Original poem:
The weather in Jiangnan is good in October,
Poor winter scenery is like spring.
The frost is light and does not kill the grass,
At the beginning of the warm day, the desert desert sand.
The old leaves are as yellow as a young tree,
The white branches of the cold cherry blossoms are wild flowers.
At this time, he is drunk with envy,
Five horses have no reason to enter the restaurant.

Poetry Commentary:
The weather in Gangnam is beautiful in October, and the scenery in winter is as lovely as spring. The frost did not freeze the grass, and the sun dried the earth. Although the leaves of the old tree are yellow, they are still like newborns. The cold cherry blossoms do not follow the chronological order and bloom with white flowers. At this time, I only envied the leisure of the drinker, and I walked into the restaurant unconsciously.
