詩仙李白，其人天才橫逸，詩歌創作尤擅七古、七絕，成就之高，每為論詩者所肯定。清代詩學大家沈德潛，論詩主張格調，所編《唐詩別裁集》兼有評點，具體反映了沈氏詩觀，乃清代重要唐詩選本之一。觀沈氏七絕選詩，數量以李白居首，足見沈氏對李白七絕評價之高。此乃由於李白七絕在創作上，無論造句用字、章法、聲律、用典，李白皆能以其才情，結合詩意，作巧妙之運用；在內容上，亦能針對豐富題材，表達深刻之情感，呈現一種含蓄悠遠的風格之故。

Poetic Genius Li Bo, a man of literary talent, was specialized in seven-character ancient-style poems and verse in writing works of poetry, whose achievement has always been recognized by poetry critics. The brilliant Chin Dynasty scholar of poetry Shen De-chien, emphasizing the literary styles while criticizing poems, composed The Ingenious Collection of the Poetry of the Tang Dynasty with his commentary remarks reflecting his own view of writing poetry, which is one of the most important collections of the Tang Dynasty seven-character four-line verse, in which Li’s works outnumbers all the others, it can be seen how high Shen’s opinion was of Li’s creation. That is because Li, in word and phrase selection, structuring, rhyme scheming, and citations, combined his literary gift with the poetic atmospheres, which was a deliberate employment; in terms of the contents, he could express his impressive affections towards plentiful topics, presenting a modest profound style.
