This poem describes the beautiful scenery of Dongting Lake in the moonlight on an autumn night. Microwave is quiet, calm, beautiful and particularly pleasant. The poet let go of his imagination, vividly described the hazy beauty of Dongting Lake in a fresh style, and sketched out a beautiful landscape of Dongting Lake. It shows the poet's love for nature, and also shows the poet's magnificent bearing and lofty and unique feelings.
The poem focuses on the word "Wang", "water and moon blend" and "the lake is as level as a mirror", which you see at close range; "Dongting Landscape" and "Like a Green Snail" are both from afar. Although they are all written in hope, the difference is obvious. The close-up is wonderful and unique; The scenery in the distance is charming and beautiful. The pool surface is like a mirror, the lake surface is like a plate, and Junshan is like a snail. The silver plate and the green snail set each other off, and the bright moon and the lake light set each other off, making the scenery more harmonious and complement each other. Junshan, described by the poet, is like a beautiful jade inlaid on Dongting Lake in the mirror. Its words are also very precise.
The first sentence describes the clear lake and the green light of the plain moon, just like the meeting in Qiongtian, which is an ethereal, ethereal, quiet and harmonious realm. It shows a harmonious picture of Tianshui and jade characters without dust. The word "harmony" has been refined, showing a harmonious picture of water and sky, jade and dust-free, and it seems to convey to readers the rhythm of a water town night-the rhythm of moonlight and lake water.
The second sentence describes that there is no wind on the lake, and the lake covered with mist is like an unpolished bronze mirror. The word "the mirror is not polished" vividly and aptly shows the calm, peaceful and gentle scene of a thousand miles of Dongting, which has a hazy beauty in the moonlight. Because only "there is no wind on the pool surface", the water waves are calm, and the lake and the moon can be coordinated. Otherwise, the lake is noisy and the waves are empty, and the lake light and autumn moon are not interesting, so there will be no "two-phase harmony".
The third and fourth sentences focus the poet's attention on Junshan from the overall picture of the vast lake and moonlight. In Yin Hui under the bright moon, Dongting Mountain is greener, Dongting water is clearer and the mountains and rivers are integrated. It looks like a small green snail in a carved silver plate, which is very attractive. The autumn moon Dongting described by the poet has become a fine treasure of arts and crafts, giving people great artistic enjoyment. "Green snail in a silver plate" is really an incredible punch line. The advantage of this sentence is not only reflected in the accurate warning of metaphor, but also in the poet's magnanimity and lofty feelings. In the poet's eyes, a thousand miles of Dongting is just a mirror and a cup and plate on the case. It is very rare to lift weights lightly, the pool is natural and unpretentious. It is a reflection of the poet's character, sentiment and aesthetic taste to express the relationship between man and nature so cordially and to describe the lakes, mountains and mountains so broadly and clearly. Boldness without thought, full of romance.
