Original: Jasper is dressed as a tree with ten thousand green silk tapestries hanging down. I don't know who cut the thin leaves, but the spring breeze in February is like scissors.
from: He Zhizhang's Poem on Willow/Willow Branches in the Tang Dynasty
Interpretation: The tall willow trees are covered with new green leaves, and the drooping willow branches are like thousands of green ribbons fluttering gently. I wonder who cut this thin willow leaf? It's the spring breeze in February. It's like a magic pair of scissors. Extended information
Appreciation of poetry and prose:
The third sentence continues to be associated with "green silk tapestry". Who cut out these slim wicker-like Liu Yeer? First, I used a question sentence to praise the beautiful willow leaves that can express my feelings. The last answer was that the spring breeze girl in February cut out these green Ye Er with her dexterous delicate hands, clothed the earth with new clothes and gave people the message of spring.
These two sentences combine metaphor with questioning, portray the beauty of spring and the ingenuity of nature with anthropomorphic methods, which are novel and unique, vividly show everything bred by spring breeze and set off infinite beauty.
Generally speaking, the structure of this poem is unique. First, the overall impression of willow is written, then the willow is written, and finally the willow leaves are written. From total to division, the poem is orderly. Singing the spring breeze with the willow tree, comparing the spring breeze to scissors, saying that she is the creator of beauty and praising her for cutting out the spring. The poem is filled with people's joy in early spring. In the use of language, it is both smooth and gorgeous.
