The first sentence of the poem depicts the newly opened osmanthus, the second sentence praises it for not striving for spring, and the last two sentences use the allusion of "peaches and plums are speechless" to quietly express the noble character and humble character of osmanthus.

Creative background:
Du Mu, a calligrapher in China, experienced six dynasties from Tang Xianzong to Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and was called "Du Weizi, the Scheerer of Wei Zi". At that time, it was in the period of fierce struggle between Niu and Li. The poet was placed in complicated struggles and disputes, and he didn't go with the flow. He is upright and upright, just like Ziweihua, so it seems that this article is not purely for enjoyment.
Although the poet wrote about Wei Zi, he didn't mention Wei Zi in this poem, which made readers enjoy the beautiful texture of Wei Zi in surprise. I fully feel Wei Zi's elegant and noble character and unique character. The so-called "abnormality" must be based on "harmony" in order to form a strange taste. This poem is regarded as a masterpiece of Wei Zi's poetry. Because of its fantastic imagination, it expands the tension and dramatic effect of poetry and makes people think deeply.
