Original text:
Jasper dressed as a tree, hanging down ten thousand green silk tapestries.
I don't know who cut the thin leaves, but the spring breeze in February is like scissors.
Translation:
Tall willows are covered with new green leaves, and drooping willows are fluttering gently like thousands of green ribbons.
I don't know who cut this thin willow leaf like magic scissors, and that is the spring breeze in February.
The extended message "Jasper is dressed as a tree, and thousands of strands of green silk hang down" profoundly grasps the characteristics of weeping willows, which seems to be the embodiment of beauty in the eyes of poets. The tall trunk is like her graceful charm, drooping wicker, like the ribbon on her skirt. Here, willow is a person, and this person is willow. There seems to be no obvious difference between the two.
And "Jasper" also has a pun meaning. Literally, in harmony with the green of willow trees, it also refers to young and beautiful girls, which just echoes the following "spring breeze in February"-this is the weeping willow in early spring, and it has not yet reached the time when the trees are graceful and the shadows are clear and round.
However, "I don't know who carries thin leaves, and the spring breeze in February is like scissors." Turning the warm and cold February spring breeze from invisible to tangible shows the magic and dexterity of the spring breeze, making Singing Willow a poetic model of describing the object.
The structure of this poem is very unique. First, write the overall impression of willow, then write willow, and finally write willow leaves, from total to division, orderly. Sing the spring breeze with willow, compare the spring breeze to scissors, say that she is the creator of beauty, and praise her for cutting out the spring. This poem is full of people's joy in early spring. In the use of language, it is both fluent and gorgeous.
