Appreciation of twenty-three horse poems (5)

The fifth poem "History of Horse" is a good poem written by the author with great care and artistic conception: "The desert sand is like snow, and the Yanshan moon is like a hook. When you are a golden brain, step on the clear autumn. "

At the beginning, the poet only used two simple metaphors to express a unique frontier battlefield scenery: the continuous Yanshan Mountains, the bright moon in the sky and the Wan Li in Pingsha, which seemed to be covered with a layer of frost and snow in the moonlight, and the picture was fresh and open; At the same time, the "hook" in Yanshan Moon is like a hook is a kind of machete, and the poet associates the bright crescent moon with a weapon image with cold light, which extends the meaning of longing for war.

This battlefield scene is cold and dense, but in the view of the war horse eager to gallop on the battlefield, it is exactly where it comes in. The poet used the word "dang" as a question, conveying the firm, confident and urgent hope of a swift horse.

The value of "Luo Jinnao" is no less than that of "brocade" and "golden whip" in the first poem of Ma history, which symbolizes the great importance attached to horses.

In the last sentence, the poet not only wrote that it is the season when the grassland horses are fat, grassy and yellow, but also vividly wrote that the horses are vigorous and vigorous with the image of "walking fast", and wrote that the horses are not bitter when they go to the battlefield, but they seem to be infinitely relaxed and happy. In the first half of the poem, there is interest in the middle, and there is a ratio in interest; The second half can express their feelings in one go. The poet used only 20 words to refine his words and thoughts, expressing the author's strong desire to reuse and make contributions.

But after a long time, his branch in the Tang Dynasty has long been forgotten by the royal family and reduced to a village living on a hillside, left out in the cold and unable to make a living. Although he was brilliant, studied hard, and wrote poems very early, he could not be recommended and appreciated by powerful people, so he had to struggle in the lower class, so he wrote this group of poems with anxiety and anger.

This group of poems has always been considered that they were not written in one place at one time. Wu Qiming's "Li Heji" thinks that it was written in the ninth year of Yuanhe (8 14), which was the year of the horse. The poet was deeply moved and wrote this group of poems in one go.
