How to learn to write poetry?

Poetry belongs to youth. China is a country of poetry, and as a member of the nation of poetry, we must have an indissoluble bond with poetry. But what is poetry? How to write poetry? However, it has become a mystery that we can't open, especially young friends, who are full of yearning for poetry but are often rejected by it. So how can we approach poetry and how can poetry embellish youth? This is exactly what I want to talk about next. First, what is poetry? If someone asks me now what is poetry? Perhaps I can only answer this way: "I know what kind of words can be regarded as poetry and what kind of words are not, but I don't know what poetry is." Poetry has no definition. But at least have a general idea! Yes, actually, poetry is not mysterious. Everything that is affectionate and beautiful is poetry. Simply put, psychological image (emotion)+physical image (beauty) = poetry. Such as: twigs, like wires; Small yellow flowers, like bright lights; The earth is like a power plant in spring. In this poem, "branches", "yellow flowers" and "earth" are psychological images, while "wires", "electric lights" and "power plants" are physical images. This wonderful poem is because after seeing the green flowers in spring, I have a good impression on the spring of the earth, and then compare the images in my mind with things through imagination. Of course, this is not a fixed pattern of poetry. Poetry is free and diverse. To really know and understand poetry, we still need to understand it through long-term reading and creation. Second, the basic characteristics of modern poetry For the creation of modern poetry, we must first understand the characteristics of modern poetry, which is extremely important for us to learn the creation of modern poetry. Only by knowing yourself can you win every battle. Modern poetry is the modern emotion that modern people feel in modern life, and it is a set of sentences arranged by modern words. Therefore, modern poetry is about the feelings of our times, and it is written in modern language (that is, modern Chinese, not classical Chinese)-this is the most basic feature of modern poetry. In addition, compared with junior high school students, modern poetry has the following important characteristics: 1, content: beautiful imagination, extraordinary in ordinary; 2. Ideologically: Write touching feelings. In other words, personal feelings and experiences should be added; 3. Format: If you want to branch, you can branch by sentence or by content. After understanding the basic characteristics of modern poetry, you can start to try to create, so what must be paid attention to in creation? Third, how to write a poem? Poetry is beautiful. To make ordinary things shine with beautiful light, we must imagine. Imagination is the source of beauty and the storehouse of poetry. A good imagination is a poem in itself. Open your mouth and serve the people. (He Zhou's scissors). Only by exerting imagination can we create a vivid image. Imagination endows poetry with vitality. Without imagination, the poems written are dry. Imagination can make a little thing show amazing charm. For example, if you appreciate the flowers in the corner, the world will become smaller. (Bing Xin's star) It's common for flowers to grow in corners, and it's easy to be ignored. If we only appreciate our own beauty, it will become smaller. Here, the poet draws an extraordinary truth from an ordinary thing by imagining and comparing people and flowers. Without imagination, it is impossible to write such inspiring poems. Secondly, poetry must be true, and only true is beautiful. We should be able to find something that can move us from life and then express it in the language and form of poetry. In this way, people can make their hearts sing and poetry becomes meaningful. For example, you are so young that you run in the dark ... but you should make the night brighter, even if you are a small insect (Bucong's firefly). At the end of the poem, the little poet made an emotional sentence, "Even if you are a small insect, you should make the night brighter", and sent an affectionate eulogy to the devotees. But such poems need to be experienced from the heart. If the little poet didn't observe fireflies carefully, didn't talk to them attentively, and didn't transpose himself into fireflies to experience their life and life, he couldn't have written such a vigilant poem. With the wings of imagination and the power of emotion, the beauty of poetry will emerge as the times require. However, we must be clear that the format of poetry is also a problem that must be paid attention to, except for writing according to content or sentences, especially in the organization of language. Mainly manifested in two aspects: first, the use of rhetoric; The first is to break the conventional combination. Flexible use of various rhetoric can enhance the vitality of poetry, and boldly breaking the conventional combination (that is, not matching according to grammatical requirements) can achieve unexpected results, but it should not be too much. Rhetoric is an important skill in poetry. Including personification, metaphor, parallelism, rhetorical question, repetition, thimble, duality, exaggeration, symbol and so on. It can be said that each expression technique has its own uniqueness. The use of metaphor can express the content of poetry more vividly and vividly. The use of xing can make readers understand the artistic conception of poetry from the beginning, and make poetry more affectionate and lasting appeal; The use of exaggeration, symbolism, synaesthesia and other techniques can inject more fresh blood into poetry, make poetry more imaginative and approachable, without making people feel vague and obscure, and make readers truly understand the thoughts and feelings expressed by the author.
