Before he was demoted to Jiangzhou, he was influenced by Confucianism, he cared about politics and showed solicitude for country and common people. At that time, Tang Dynasty suffered great civil strife so that the common people lives in a hard life. So in this period, he showed sympathy for the hardship of common people in his poem. And also he wrote many poems to satirize the corrupt politicians which resulted his demotion. The masterpieces at that time are The Old Charcoal Seller, Buying Flowers, The Everlasting Regret , The Flower in the Haze and many so on.
But after he was demoted to Jiangzhou, he started to become pessimistic as he was disappointed with the government. he realized that his will never fulfill himself.When he was in Jiangzhou, he indulged in traveling. His poems of that period was similar to idylls.
Bai Juyi’s poem was famous for its simplicity in both form and style. He always tried to use simple words to express his feelings.
