The ancient poems about birds are as follows:
First, two orioles sing green willows, and a row of egrets fly into the sky. -Du Fu's quatrains.
Appreciation: The first sentence says that there are a pair of orioles singing on the new green willow branches around the thatched cottage, which is a happy scene, showing a vibrant and colorful mood, which constitutes a fresh and beautiful artistic conception and has a festive meaning. The egrets in the blue sky are flying freely. Wan Li is a clear sky, and the egrets are extremely bright in color against the "blue sky".
Four bright colors, yellow, emerald, white and cyan, are used in the two sentences one after another to weave a beautiful picture. The third sentence is written by the window overlooking the snow ridge in Xishan. The snow on the ridge doesn't melt all the year round, so "Thousand Autumn Snow" has accumulated. The word "containing" indicates that the scene seems to be a picture embedded in a window frame.
second, hundreds of sounds move at will, and the mountain flowers are red and purple. -Ouyang Xiu's Thrushcross Birds.
Appreciation: Thrush birds are full of songs and dances, one high and one low, which makes the colorful mountain flowers more pleasing to the eye. The last two sentences are lyrical: when I see those birds in cages, I really envy the thrush flying in the forest, free and unrestrained. What we should also know here is that Ouyang Xiu, the author, was banished to Chuzhou at this time because he was excluded from the DPRK, so the mood of writing this poem can be known.
To write a thrush is to write about yourself. The hundred chirps of a thrush bird express the heart melody of seclusion in the mountains and unfettered. Look at the flowers and lush foliage, and care about the gold belt and purple robe; Infinite joy and comfort, such as a clear stream from the mountains, washes away the worldly dust, leaving only a pleasant rhyme to flow.
Contrastive techniques are used: the first two sentences (writing freely and noisily thrush) are contrasted with the last two sentences (writing thrush trapped in a cage and losing his freedom).
Third, the wandering warblers are uneven. -Li Shangyin's The Raven.
appreciation: in the first two sentences of this poem, the word "Liu" is written on the front. Wandering is uneven, which means that after drifting, it is followed by flying and drifting. "Du Mo" and "Lin Liu" are the rest in the constant drifting flow, and the word "Fu" should be added.
The poet did not give a positive account of the reason why the street warbler kept drifting and flying, and when and where it was going to drift. He just added the word "uncontrollable" lightly. This is an all-in-one point, suggesting that the warbler can't control her own destiny at all, as if she were controlled by some invisible force.
It is a common metaphor for the poet's own life of tossing and turning the shogunate with the wandering of a stray warbler. The unique word "uncontrollable" blends the poet's unique feelings.
