What does the railing on the moon shadow mean?

Wang Anshi was a famous poet in Song Dynasty, who left us many excellent works. He wrote a poem called Spring Night when he was on the night shift at Hanlin College. Today, let's take a look at what this poem describes.

Spring night

Wang Song Anshi

The golden stove is fragrant, and the headland is breezy and cold.

Spring is boring, I can't sleep, and the moon is moving and the shadow is dry.

The night is already deep, the incense burner has burned out, and the water in the colander will leak out. The night wind is gentle but also with a little chill.

The spring scenery at night is too beautiful to sleep. I saw the shadow of the flower quietly climb the railing with the movement of the moon.

Make an appreciative comment

The first sentence of this poem shows that the poet stayed up all night because of state affairs and was very sensitive to the passage of time. The second sentence of the poem describes the poet's feeling of going from indoor to outdoor, indicating that the poet's feelings are exciting and exciting now. The "spring scenery" in the third sentence of the poem refers not only to the wonderful scenery, but also to the rare opportunity in history. The conclusion, "The shadow of flowers on the railing moves on the moon", is even more lyrical by taking advantage of the scenery, "tying feelings and scenery together", which implicitly and interestingly expresses the author's happy mood.
