Alright, I need to create ten seven-character regulated verse poems (七律) for the themes of acquaintance, companionship, understanding, farewell, and longing between Li Bai and Du Fu. Each poet should have five poems in their respective styles, totaling ten poems. I must ensure they follow the poetic rules and use consistent rhyme schemes.
First, I should understand the styles of Li Bai and Du Fu. Li Bai's poetry is known for its free-spirited and imaginative qualities, often reflecting his wandering nature and love for nature. Du Fu, on the other hand, is more realistic, with a deeper concern for society and a refined artistic style.
For the themes:
1. **Acquaintance**: The initial meeting between Li Bai and Du Fu.
2. **Companionship**: Their travels together through Liang Song and Qi Lu.
3. **Understanding**: The deep friendship and mutual appreciation.
4. **Farewell**: Their parting ways.
5. **Longing**: The思念 they have for each other after separation.
I need to write five poems in the style of Li Bai and five in the style of Du Fu, each corresponding to these themes. I should pay attention to the rhyme scheme and the structure of the七律.
For Li Bai's style, I should use a more flowing and imaginative language, perhaps incorporating natural imagery and a sense of freedom. For Du Fu, the language should be more restrained, with a focus on emotion and social context.
I also need to ensure that each poem fits the theme appropriately and that the rhyme and tone are consistent within each poem.
Let me start drafting these poems, keeping in mind the characteristics of each poet and the specific themes.
