Bamboo Stone is a seven-character quatrain written by Zheng Xie, a painter in Qing Dynasty. This poem is a poem about bamboo. The poet praised not the softness of bamboo, but its fortitude.
The whole poem is as follows:
Bamboo is not relaxed at all, its roots are firmly embedded in the cracks in the rocks.
After thousands of tortures and blows, it is still strong, whether it is the southeast wind or the northwest wind in winter, it can bear it and will still be tough and straight.

works appreciation
In fact, the bamboo in the poem is also the embodiment of the noble personality of the author Zheng Banqiao. In life, the poet is such a kind of rock bamboo that has close ties with the lower class, hates evil and is not afraid of powerful people. Zheng Banqiao's poems on paintings, like his paintings, have a strong three-dimensional sense and can be appreciated as paintings. This poem is like this. Both bamboo and stone are vivid in the poet's pen.
There is no real wind, which is also described as passing by. However, the poet's pursuit is not only in the external shape, but also in every thin and hard rock and bamboo, which injects his own ideals and melts into his own personality, thus making this bamboo stone reveal a profound meaning outside animals and an internal charm.
