Appreciation of famous sentences

This poem is one of Wang Wei's representative works, describing the dusk scenery of mountains, empty forests and sunset observed by the author in the villa. When the first two sentences were written near evening, there was no one in the empty mountains, but from the depths of the Woods, some intermittent voices could be faintly heard. The "sound" here does not mean noise, but the meaning of sound. With a "ring" as a foil, it shows the quietness of empty mountains and deep forests. The last two sentences are about the afterglow of the sunset, which passes through the dense forest sideways and shines on the moss close to the ground again. Because the forest is deep and dense, and the shade is covered, the sun can't penetrate during the day. The word "complex" reveals that only the light that passes through in the morning and evening can enter the forest. This description adds a sense of silence. This poem, by describing the "quietness" of mountain scenery, expresses the "quietness" of the poet's mood, which is meaningful.
