Guo was also an accomplished poet, and his 11 surviving "fu" poems display his extensive command of the ancient Chinese language. One of them, entitled ""Fu" on the Yangtze River" ("Jiang fu" 江賦), used the image of the Yangtze to praise the restoration of the Jin dynasty, and established his reputation as a leading literary figure. His best known poems are a series entitled "Wandering as an Immortal" ("youxian" 遊仙), of which 14 survive. The bibliography monograph of the Records of the Sui dynasty list Guo's works in 17 volumes; by the Tang dynasty only 10 volumes remained, and by the end of the Song dynasty all of Guo's writings not included in the "Wen Xuan" had been lost. All that remains today are his writings from the "Wen Xuan" and reconstructions from quotations in other surviving works.
