Judging from the style of his works, Li Bai is a romantic poet, Du Fu is a realistic poet who cares about the country and the people, and Li Shangyin is a master of love poems. Whether it is friendship or love, Li Shangyin can always write incisively and vividly, which makes people deeply moved after reading it. "Time was long before I met her, but for a longer time, because we were separated, the east wind appeared and a hundred flowers blossomed" expressed the incomparable sincere feelings of acacia's parting. "You asked if you came back early, and the rain rose in the autumn pool in the evening", which revealed the endless love for your wife, and the sadness and loneliness came to the fore.
A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise. The disappointment in his official career really dealt a great blow to Li Shangyin, but from another perspective, it stimulated his creative potential. Li Shangyin died at the age of forty-five, and his writing career was only over twenty years. Up to now, there are more than 600 poems handed down from generation to generation, among which 20 poems have been selected into "Three Hundred Poems of Tang Poetry", ranking fourth in quantity, which can be called a great poet with high yield and high quality. Today, I introduce one of his most unpopular poems. There is not a word of love in the whole poem, but every sentence is about love.
Calm thoughts
Don
When you leave, the spring tide roams the railing; Now the dew is hanging on the branches.
I will always miss the good times. This day passed the day before today.
The north of you is as far as spring; I was too late in Nanling, and the delivery was too late.
Far away, I have repeatedly divined my dreams; Doubt that you are new here and forget your old friends.
The writing year of this poem is unknown, and the writing background cannot be verified, but according to the title, it can be determined that the season of writing this poem is the early autumn of a certain year. The main idea of the poem is: when you leave, the spring tide is flush with the railing. A few months later, the cicada's voice was no longer heard, and the dew was covered with branches. I can't forget the days when I was with you, but now I sigh on the railing. You and I are far apart and can't wait for your letter. Thousands of miles away, I dream of you every day, worrying that you have a new confidant and forget me.
All the scenes are sentimental. The poet describes the scene when he leaves from the change of seasons, and expresses the helplessness of fleeting time through the difference of time. Autumn is easy to make people feel sad. When the person you care about is not around, lovesickness and melancholy are closer. Then introduce the distance of space, through the comparison between Beidou and Nanling, the lovesickness atmosphere is stronger.
As a master of love poems, Li Shangyin firmly grasped the temperament of this piece, without deliberately concealing his inner thoughts, pretending to be deep and artificial. His writing is concise and straightforward, but his artistic conception is superior. There is always a sense of confusion. There are two views on the work A Cold Thinking. Some people think that Li Shangyin wrote about the love between men and women, and it is a long-distance love.
But some people think that he describes friendship, and the word "guest" in the first sentence refers to like-minded friends. Love and friendship are precious in Li Shangyin's eyes. Poets are sentimental, afraid to get it and lose it, and even more afraid that the other party will have a new confidant, talk nothing and become a stranger without news. That feeling is too painful. Li Shangyin is like this, aren't you and me?
