Yuan Zhen

Half-hoping for dawn and half-ignorance, drunk smelling flowers and sleeping warblers,

Yaner rang the bell and moved. Twenty years ago, Xiao Temple fell in love.

Appreciation of yuan Zhen's Tang poems;

This is a seven-character quatrain to miss my former lover.

At the dawn of a spring day, the sky is hazy and unclear. The author smelled flowers and orioles in his hometown, and his mood was very quiet. Suddenly, a puppy jumped over and bumped into the bell, which reminded him of a memory in the temple twenty years ago.

What was the situation twenty years ago? There is no explanation in the poem, but we know something from a novel written by the poet.

As we all know, the poet once wrote a famous legendary novel Hui Zhen Ji, which tells the love story of Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying. Cui Yingying is a beautiful, gentle and affectionate woman. Zhang Sheng loved her very much, but in the end, she was abandoned, because her humble background was not conducive to her fame and fortune. In fact, this is an autobiographical novel of the poet. The poem "Spring Dawn" is a copy of this novel, and Zhang Sheng is the poet himself.

After the poet abandoned his original lover, he soon married Wei Cong, a famous lady. It can be seen that he is a heartbreaker. But on the other hand, he is obsessed with his former lover, misses her very much, and feels deeply guilty about his misfortune. "Twenty years ago, Xiao Temple fell in love." In the memory of the past, his mood became uneasy again.

This poem is written in beautiful circles. The first sentence uses the word "half" to describe the hazy scenery at dawn in spring; The second sentence, "I am drunk smelling flowers and sleeping smelling warblers", describes the quiet environment and sets off the author's leisure at this time. The third sentence "The swallow rings the bell"

Make a turning point and suddenly make waves, reminding the poet of his 20-year trip. The turn of this sentence is beautiful, and the ups and downs in the poem are caused by the bell that the dog shakes in the sentence. A short poem with only four sentences can be written so ups and downs, which shows the poet's artistic skill.

Yuan Zhen is very good at writing ancient and modern colorful poems, which are shallow and affectionate and charming. The poem "Spring Dawn" is particularly striking. The History of China Literature compiled by the Academy of Sciences also specifically pointed out: "This poem is a copy and deserves to be highlighted in the history of literature."
