Writing background:

After the Anshi Rebellion, this poem was sung in the mansion of an official in Li Guinian, which shows that this poem was sung by people at that time in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and still flourished in the war years, which shows that this poem has deeply influenced people's hearts.

The painting of this poem seems to represent a dream, a visible and unattainable dream, but that kind of dream can only be remembered when the human mind is in a quiet state. But it is a fact that it is not available.

The poet only looks for the last thing in the world that can hold his feelings, with a touch of sadness. People leave, flowers stay in the air, birds are not surprised, people come again, there is no eternal beauty, all beauty will be hidden in illusion.

"Looking at the colorful mountains" is a "quiet environment". The beauty of a quiet environment is beyond the first sentence, because only people with a quiet mind can appreciate it.

"Listen to the water quietly" is not contradictory to the first sentence. It can be said that poets can choose between dynamic and static. What is so magical and quiet that it is hard to give up and find, which will bring us close to this poem and this painting, which will bring our hearts and scenery closer?

"It is not surprising that spring is still there." Flowers bloom heartily in that most beautiful season, and finally open life to the most beautiful. After the beauty reaches the extreme, it floats away. But the flowers don't fade, just because they are in the painting.
