The Tang poem and Song ci are two rare and beautiful flowers in the Chinese history of literature, but the characteristic formation of the word body didn't throw a switch. In the endless literature river, the word formation not only has a close relationship with music, but also benefits from characteristic of the deep graceful late Tang poem. Therefore, this article will obtain from the poet intrinsic difference, take WenTingjun's poem as the leadership to discuss the word body characteristics of late Tang Poem and the reasons which result in this phenomenon as well as its influence in later literature.The poem and ci belong to two kinds of different literature styles. From the time of "Poetry", the poem was used to sing the praises by writers, to express political views, to obtain the title with little power, and established the meritorious service. But writers used ci to increase the interest when they drink. It is the enjoyment tool of people who are in love with each other. It has no help in the national affairs and no concern with the political teaching. It splitted up with the poem and its style is also entirely different from the poem.Taking WenTingjun as a representative poet in late Tang, their poems often used colorful words and the themes stressed flirtatious expressions.The image tends to be plaintive, the ideal condition tends to obscurity. The category and emotion in these poems have already presented the obvious word body style.The word body characteristics of the late Tang poem rebel the traditional poems. Its appearance is the specific product of the time. In front to the political power which creakied and the life official career was not smooth, most of the people in late Tang involved in luxurious life. They have no intention on political current events, but wandered about in their inner world. They inherited the body poem style which was abandoned in Six Dynasty. They changed their great dreams into the interest of entertainment, changed the trandition of construction country into entertainment enjoyment in order to express the meaning of prosperity and deterioration, past and now and their delight of enjoyment. This objectively became the reason of poetry body characteristics in late Tang.The poem and ci have their own characteristics.Perhaps they look like two parallel lines, develope equally along the respective paths. However, till the late Tang, ci has derived the nutrient from the poem through the key point as WenTingjun. It unified the body poem style with the method of"yi sheng tian ci".Ci has the characteritics that can sing and dance with music and uneven length. Besides these, it has inner characteristics like sadness, flirtatious expressions, implicit and so on. It enabled ci to get rid of the style which was similar with poem in its initial period and formed"hua jian pai"which taked WenTingjun as a representative.The pattern"hua jian"has become the standard which the later generation imitated, affected profoundly. Meanwhile, poems cannot be look down upon which take WenTingjun as representative in late Tang .
