First, sing the willow tree.
Say goodbye to Liu, "Silence speaks louder"
Willow is a homonym for "leaving". The ancients used "folding willows" to express their inseparable feelings. The wind of "folding willow" was particularly popular in the Tang and Song Dynasties, so "folding willow" became another name for farewell.
In Lu Tai's Note, "the new knowledge is the gift, and the old lover is the gift basket", which describes the feeling of parting with Yangliu. The folk song "Get on the horse and don't catch the whip, go back to Yang Liuzhi" in the Northern Dynasties is also a farewell message written with willow trees. "I have been there, and the willows are lingering" in the Book of Songs, which is based on the graceful beauty of willows.
Sorrow with willow words, "autumn wind and autumn rain worry people."
When people are sad, the scene is dark and everything is missed. Liu Yong is a representative figure of graceful ci school and a master of his sadness. In his Lin Yuling, "Where did you wake up tonight?" Yang Liuan's "The Wandering Moon and the Broken Moon" is a masterpiece of the ages. Here, the poet imagines that the most painful thing in life is to quench thirst by drinking poison, but he doesn't know where he is when he wakes up. Here, the poet outlines a "clear autumn picture scroll": gentle breeze, hazy waning moon, willows, gentle breeze, waning moon and willows, which constitute a sad landscape and arouse people's attention to the poet. A crescent moon hangs high on the branches of willow trees, and the bleak scenery, the indifference of guests and the sadness of parting are completely condensed in this picture of clear autumn. It's really "all scenery words have feelings", which makes people feel sad after reading it.
Taking softness as beauty, "we can feel her feelings, even before she plays"
The physical characteristics of willow are feminine. He's poem "Jasper adorns the tree high, and thousands of strands of green silk hang down" describes the inner beauty of willow. "When you see the charming face of a lotus, you will bend over when you meet the memory of a willow." Here, the waist of a beautiful woman is compared to a willow branch, and the beauty of a woman's body is reflected through the beauty of the waist. Because willows are "thin, long and soft."
Second, enjoy the moon.
Express your feelings with the moon, "Who can't afford to be homesick?"
The moon has many nicknames, such as "Silver Hook, Jade Plate, Jade Rabbit, Moon, Ghost Palace" and so on. Moonlight and Yue Hui often become symbols of homesickness and reunion in ancient poems. People often feel homesick when they see the moon shining on the earth. Li Bai's Thoughts on a Quiet Night: "The foot of my bed is bright, is there frost?" I looked up and found that it was moonlight and sank back. It suddenly occurred to me that Home was just four short poems.
Li Yu's poem "Yu Meiren" is also a famous poem expressing her feelings for the moon. When is the first two sentences "Spring flowers and autumn moon"? How much do you know about the past! " Writing about the scene in front of me, I look forward to the "autumn moon" and feel sad. What did "flowers are similar year after year, people are different year after year" and "the moon is short and full" bring to poets? It can only be long and endless hatred. "The small building was easterly last night, and the old country was unbearable to look back on the moon and the future was bright." From lamenting reality to writing about things around you. In the bright moonlight, recalling my shattered country, the great mental pain is unbearable! "The moonlight at home is how bright!" The poet imprisoned in a small building, seeing the bright moon in the sky, will naturally arouse his infinite attachment to all kinds of old feelings in his old country. However, the "bright moon" is no different, just that the country changed hands and everything became an untraceable "past".
The love of the moon, "let her heart share everything with us bit by bit"
There are three sentences in Li Qingzhao's poem "Don't worry about cutting plums": "Who sent the brocade book in the clouds? In ancient times, for relatives or lovers who separated the two places, letters were a bridge to communicate each other's news and feelings, which could travel through time and space and bring comfort to those who missed each other. Here, for this poet who deeply misses her husband, the hope of getting her husband's letters naturally becomes an indispensable part of her spiritual life. The word "wild goose" returns, and the moon is full of the West Building. In other words, only the cold moonlight silently filled her roof. It's really "the bright moon doesn't know how to leave sorrow and hate bitterness, and shines obliquely through the Pearl Lake". How can this not make the poet doubly disappointed and melancholy? Wu said in the second volume of Poems on Lotus Seeds: "Love stories reflect the scenery, which is the fruit of deep beauty." Here, the poet did not answer after shouting "Who sent the brocade book", but wrapped the picture with two poetic words: "The wild goose returns and the moon is full of the west building", instead of writing his own thoughts.
Write the scenery month by month, "autumn moon and spring breeze are casual"
Li Yu's poem "Welcome to Huan" reaches the top: "Without words, I go to the west wing alone, and the moon is like a hook. Lonely phoenix tree deep courtyard locks autumn. " Through a bright moon, I wrote a scene in which the poet was alone and full of sorrow. Looking up at the column, the meniscus is like a hook, which is reverie and memorable. Broken old country, broken home, this broken heart seems to know people's hearts. As if the moon understands human feelings, the moon symbolizing reunion is not beautiful tonight, which makes the poet more worried. The poet looked down at the downstairs and saw that "Lonely phoenix tree deep courtyard locks clear autumn", "phoenix tree" and "deep courtyard" did not understand human love and hate, let alone "loneliness". The word "clear autumn" also reminds people of the yellow leaves falling and the bleak autumn wind, what's more, "loneliness" is not the autumn scenery but the poet's prisoner. The words "loneliness" and "lock" here are vivid strokes and the poet's subjective impression that "everything is colored by my heart" (Wang Guowei's language). Here, the scene is emotional, the scene is blended, the scene is connected with people's hearts, and people and the scene are integrated.
The ancients' preference for the moon often has a certain historical and cultural background, because the bright moon or crescent moon in the sky is the easiest to arouse the poet's infinite association and imagination, and it is also the easiest to arouse the poet's rich poetic sentiment, thus forming the beautiful scenery of enjoying the moon in ancient poetry and leaving valuable cultural heritage for future generations.
