This paper tries to analyze the application of color description in the performance of natural scenery in the poem North with examples.

For example, when expressing the image of "land", the color of "grayish yellow" and the dim light are often used, which strongly implies the deep sadness and dignified misfortune in reality and also infiltrates the poet's melancholy feelings.

Therefore, hue, lightness and image in poetry are not only the capture and record of feelings and impressions, but also a hint and symbol.
