There has always been a famous sentence about lotus. As early as in the lyric poem Lisao, the patriotic poet Qu Yuan compared himself with the lotus flower many times and regarded it as a noble gentleman.
There is also a classic Lotus Picking Song in the folk songs of Yuefu in Han Dynasty, and Li Shangyin, a hazy poet, also has famous works such as Giving Lotus, Falling Stone Pavilion Love Cui Yongcui Boat, etc. Meng Haoran, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, also had the term "thinking in the South Pavilion in summer", and Zhou Bangyan, a musician, also had the term "Su Shade", and so on.
Not only Yang Wanli himself, but also masterpieces such as Lin Zifang from Jingci Temple, Chu Xiao, Xiao Chi, etc., but what we are going to appreciate today is his other work, Zhao Jun Complain.
This is the name of the inscription. Although the name is Zhao Jun, the poet wrote about lotus flowers and rain. Zhao Jun complained/sang about the rain on the lotus.
Dream of the bottom of the boat in the afternoon. Smelling the smoke and water of the West Lake. The sound of heavy rain hitting the tent. The first shock of a dream.
It's a pool of lotus jumping in the rain. When the real pearls are scattered, they gather together. Gather into a nest of mercury. Clear the clean waves.
This is Yang Wanli's impromptu little word. Fresh and meaningful, very attractive.
Especially when reading in summer, it is especially refreshing, if there is a cool breeze. The first movie was about the West Lake in my dream.
The West Lake is the dream of almost all literati. As a must-see place for literati in the past dynasties, there are many poems in the past dynasties, the most famous of which should be Su Shi's two "Drinking on the Lake".
With the help of dreams, the poet also galloped away to the yearning West Lake.
The word "dream" at the beginning points out everything. There are boats and rivers here, the lake is full of smoke and waves, the flowers are overflowing, the green herons are scattered all over the place, and perhaps there are bamboo flutes and songs described in Ouyang Xiu's "Picking Mulberries". In short, it is a confusing and dreamy summer West Lake and a paradise for people to relieve their troubles.
Although there are only two short sentences to describe it, we obviously feel that the poet is intoxicated and immersed. Unexpectedly, the poet was awakened by the sudden heavy rain. It was a dream. I am at home, not in the West Lake. Will the poet be disappointed?
The next word "que" connects the preceding with the following and leads to the pond at home. It turned out that the sound of heavy rain just woke me up. The West Lake in the dream is gone, but the scene in front of us has given the poet a new world.
The poet described the lotus flowers in the rain with words like pearls and jade. At this time, the poet cut to the chase and "sang the lotus on the rain". Throughout Xiatan, the poet paid attention to one detail:
When it rains, the lotus tray jumps together, and when it accumulates, the lotus tray tilts, so the lotus beads fall and float.
It is such an ordinary process that the poet uses a clever pen. The poet uses "jumping" and "diarrhea" to describe the active and naughty raindrops, "scattering" and "gathering" to describe the dynamic beauty of raindrops, and "real pearls" and "mercury" to describe the yingying and lovely raindrops.
Under the careful observation of the poet, a life of heavy rain is also the beauty of fun and leisure. The poet just presents this process with a pen, and it becomes a beautiful charm, which makes people linger.
The language of the whole word is still sincere, without exaggeration, melodramatic and gorgeous, and clear soup is like water.
Conceptually speaking, it starts with dreams and connects reality with rain, which naturally realizes the transition between dreams and reality, and has a high degree of correlation, which can be regarded as the continuation of the West Lake to enjoy the lotus. In contrast, the word context has also widened. The style of writing is just line drawing, which tells its charm in the fragrant and ethereal, bouncing bowling ball plate.
The biggest feature of words is that they are common in poetry.
Yang Wanli has always been good at writing ordinary things. Qian Zhongshu also said in "Talking about Art": Cheng Zhai is good at sketching. This statement is correct.
