The rustling leaves send the cold sound, and the autumn wind moves the guests on the river. I know that children choose to promote weaving, and a lamp fell on the fence at night. From Ye Shaoweng.
Ye Shaoweng: A famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, belonging to the "Jianghu Poetry School", once called Yin as an official for a while, and then lived in seclusion in the West Lake. He is famous for his poems mourning Yue Fei. His works include the timeless classic "Going to the Garden is Worthless", and his poetic style is far-reaching and intriguing. This "night book" was written by him on his way home from work.
The sentence "The leaves of plane trees send cold sounds, and the autumn wind on the river moves guests' feelings" describes the scene of autumn. The autumn wind in the bleak place blows the plane leaves, bringing chills. The autumn wind on the river also makes the poet miss his hometown. This description of the natural environment creates a sad and lonely atmosphere and further arouses homesickness.

This poem expresses the poet's nostalgia for his hometown and childhood by describing the emotional changes in the natural environment and the poet's inner world.
When describing the natural environment, the poet used elements such as "leaves", "autumn wind" and "lights" to create a lonely and desolate atmosphere and deepen homesickness.
When describing childhood memories, the poet used elements such as "picking and weaving", "falling hedges" and "lighting" to show a scene full of childlike interest and warmth, which further deepened the artistic conception of the poem. The whole poem is sincere in emotion and concise in language, which deeply expresses the theme of homesickness in autumn night.
