The reason why I want to go to Yangzhou in March is because the author Li Bai learned that Meng Haoran was going to Guangling (now Yangzhou, Jiangsu) in March, so he sent a letter to invite Meng Haoran to meet in Jiangxia (now Wuchang District, Wuhan). This poem was written only a few days after they met, when Meng Haoran sailed eastward and Li Bai personally delivered it to the river.
Fireworks in Yangzhou in March is from a farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou by the contemporary poet Li Bai: 1.
Old friends frequently waved to me, bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower, and traveled to Yangzhou in this beautiful spring filled with catkins and flowers.
My friend's sail shadow faded away and disappeared at the end of the blue sky, only seeing the first line of the Yangtze River and heading for the distant horizon.

Old friends frequently waved to me, bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower, and traveled to Yangzhou on this catkin-like, flowery March spring day.
The lonely sail shadow of my friend faded away and disappeared at the end of the blue sky, only seeing a line of the Yangtze River, heading for the distant sky.
3. Writing background
The Yellow Crane Tower Farewell to Meng Haoran in Yangzhou is the work of Li Bai when he entered Sichuan to visit Zhuang. Li Bai is a poet who loves nature and likes to make friends. He is "according to a constant habit in my life". He traveled all his life in wandering and wandering, and his footprints spread all over the Central Plains, leaving many works praising the beauty of nature and friendship.
In the fifteenth year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (727), Li Baidong returned to Anlu, Hubei, at the age of 27. He lived in Anlu for ten years, but most of the time, he made friends with poetry and traveled abroad. In his own words, "it's a waste of ten years to keep wine in the land." That is, while living in Anlu, Li Bai met Meng Haoran who was twelve years older than him. Meng Haoran admired Li Bai very much and they soon became close friends. In March of the 18th year of Kaiyuan (730), Li Bai learned that Meng Haoran was going to Guangling (now Yangzhou, Jiangsu), so he sent someone to Jiangxia (now Wuchang District, Wuhan) to meet Meng Haoran. A few days later, Meng Haoran took a boat to the east, and Li Bai personally sent it to the river. When I was leaving, I wrote this song "Farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou by the Yellow Crane Tower".
Step 4 enjoy
This poem was written by Li Bai when he was traveling in Sichuan. It describes the poet's infinite attachment when he bid farewell to his friends, and also describes the magnificence of the motherland.
The opening sentence of the poem, "An old friend stayed in the Yellow Crane Tower in the west", closely follows the theme and points out the place of farewell and his relationship with the person who was sent away. The word "old friend" illustrates the profound friendship between the two poets. "Yellow Crane Tower" is a world-famous scenic spot, a place where poets hang out and meet, and also a legendary place where immortals ascend to heaven by crane. Now two elegant poets say goodbye here, which is more poetic and romantic. The second sentence, "Fireworks will descend in Yangzhou in March", followed by the first sentence. Write down the time of seeing off and the place where the person who was sent will go. "Yangzhou" is a metropolis in the southeast, which has been prosperous since ancient times. "March" is a season of beautiful spring and blooming flowers. The poet decorated "March" with "fireworks", which not only vividly wrote the gorgeous face of Yangchun, but also reminded people of the prosperous and peaceful scene of Yangzhou with flowers and embroidered curtains. The place where Meng Haoran is going is really a good place and the time is right. Li Bai naturally envies his friend's trip very much. The beautiful and vivid poem "Fireworks in March in Yangzhou" expresses the poet's inner happiness and yearning. However, Li Bai is also an emotional poet. When a friend sails, the feeling of parting arises spontaneously. From Li Taibai's poems, we can see that there are many poems between Li Bai and Meng Haoran. In a letter to Meng Haoran, Li Bai wrote: "Master, I sincerely salute you. Your reputation has risen to the sky. In the rosy youth, you gave up the importance of hats and chariots and chose pine trees and clouds; Now, whitehead. " It can be seen how much Li Bai admires Meng Haoran and how deep their friendship is.
The third and fourth sentences of the poem are exactly the farewell feelings of Li Bai when he bid farewell to his poetry friends. "Lonely sails sail in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River flows in the sky." On the surface, these two poems are all about scenery, but in fact they have distinct poet images. "Lonely Sail" does not mean that there is only one sailboat on the vast Yangtze River, but that all the poet's attention and feelings are focused on the sailboat that his friends are riding. The poet saw off at the Yellow Crane Tower, watching his friend's boat with sails drifting away, getting smaller and blurred, leaving only a little shadow, and finally disappearing at the junction of water and sky. The poet still stood for a long time, watching the river flow to the sky, as if entrusting his affection to the river, accompanying the accompanying boat and sending his friend to his destination. What a profound friendship these two poems express, but the word "friendship" can't be found in them. The poet skillfully pinned his deep affection for parting on the dynamic description of natural scenery, and completely integrated his feelings with the scenery, which really made him memorable.
