The image of green bamboo in the cracks of the mountain rocks is displayed in front of the reader. The word "bite" personifies bamboo. "Bite" is an active action that requires effort. It not only describes the scene of green bamboo clinging to the green mountains, but also shows the bamboo's spirit of not being afraid of hardships, fighting against nature, and surviving tenaciously. Following the previous sentence, the second sentence "The roots are originally in the broken rock" shows that the reason why the green bamboo can stand proudly on the green mountain is that it is deeply rooted in the broken rock. In the author Zheng Banqiao's poems and paintings, bamboo is often inseparable from "stone". Sometimes, stone constitutes the opposite of bamboo, such as "Draw a bamboo branch and insert a stone. The stone is one foot higher than the bamboo branch. Although one foot makes it taller, I will lift the power of heaven every year." Sometimes the stone becomes the background of bamboo, such as " The autumn wind passed through Xiaoxiang last night and went crazy when it touched the rocks and penetrated the forest; only the bamboo branches were not afraid, and they fought with each other for a thousand times." In this poem, bamboo and stone form a seamless whole. Without dianthus, it would not be tall, and without bamboo, the mountain would not be green. These two poems also illustrate a simple but profound philosophy: Only with a deep foundation can one be strong.
With the foreshadowing of the first two sentences, it is natural to lead to the following two sentences: "Though hardships and blows, you are still strong, regardless of the wind from east to west, north or south." Bamboo in this poem has a characteristic. It is not an isolated bamboo, nor a static bamboo, but rock bamboo, a wind bamboo. In the poems and paintings of the author Zheng Banqiao, bamboo is often a symbol of noble conduct and strong will, while wind is often a representative of evil forces, such as the aforementioned sentences "The autumn wind crossed Xiaoxiang last night", and another example: "A strong wind Roll it back, the bamboo branches turn back and open to the sky. It is my job to sweep away the clouds and fog, but it is just a matter of sweeping the ground." In this poem, the bamboos also withstand the blows of the "east, west, north and south winds" throughout the year. But because it is deeply rooted in the rock, it remains firm and strong. No matter what kind of wind it is, it has nothing to do with it. The poet uses the words "Qian" and "Wan" to describe the tenacity, fearlessness, calmness and confidence of bamboo. It can be said that the artistic conception of the whole poem emerges suddenly at this point. At this time, what stands in front of us is no longer just a few ordinary bamboos. What we feel is a kind of tenacious vitality and an indomitable willpower, and all of this is contained in that slender Among the windy bamboos.
The bamboo in the poem is actually the incarnation of the noble personality of the author Zheng Banqiao. In life, the poet is exactly such a rock bamboo that has a closer connection with the lower class people, hates evil as much as hatred, and is not afraid of the powerful. The author Zheng Banqiao's poems on paintings have a strong three-dimensional sense just like his paintings, and can be appreciated by painting. This poem is exactly like this. Both bamboo and stone are vivid in the poet's writing, as if they are in front of his eyes. The disembodied wind is also described as if it were blowing across the face. But what the poet pursues is not only the external appearance, but also infuses his own ideals into each thin and hard rock bamboo and integrates his own personality, so that the bamboo and stone reveal a deep meaning and inner charm. .
This is a poem that uses objects to describe people and expresses aspirations. It is also a poem in praise of objects. This poem focuses on expressing the tenacious and persistent quality of bamboo. It supports the tenacity of rock bamboo and expresses its uprightness, unyielding and unyielding character. The language of the whole poem is simple, lively, persistent and powerful. [4]?
