Besides the poems are beautiful, we can learn a lot of history and culture of the country from them. Thank you.

In Longest Day Cen Cen appeared a bit like a bumbing idiot - a knowledgeable one, later in the series. I'm wondering if this poem was written after Li Bai's "bring in the wine" and a kind of poetic tribute to that poem, as they both start with 君不见 then talk about a river flowing?
