1. Verses describing love in letters
Why does the water flow so fast? The palace is full of leisure.
Thank you Hong Ye diligently so that you can go to the world. "The Story of Flowing Red" In the Tang Dynasty, a Confucian scholar named Yu You saw a fallen leaf floating in Yugou. When he picked it up and looked at it, there was a poem on it: Why is the water flowing too fast? The deep palace is full of leisure, and I am diligent in thanking the red leaves so that I can go to the world.
I thought this must have been done by someone in the palace, who became ill due to longing. So he wrote two sentences on another red leaf: I once heard that there was a red complaint on the leaf, and I wrote a poem on the leaf to address it. He threw the leaf into the upper reaches of the imperial ditch and let it flow into the palace.
Later, Yu You lived in the noble Han Yong's house. Han Yong treated him well and promised Mrs. Han, a maid released from the palace, to be Yu You's wife. After the marriage, Mrs. Han found the red leaves with the poem on it in Yu You's box. She was shocked and said that it was the poem she had written on it.
She also said that she also picked up a red leaf with a poem in the ditch afterwards. I took it out and saw that it was exactly what Yu You wrote.
The two believed that the red leaves were used as matchmakers, and it became a legend for a while. 2. What are the ancient poems about letters?

Why is the running water too fast? The deep palace is full of leisure.
Thank you Hong Ye diligently so that you can go to the human world. The legend of red leaves in the Tang Dynasty contains Zhang Shi's "Flowing Red Notes": Confucian scholar Yu You saw a fallen leaf floating in the ditch. He picked it up and looked at it, and there was a poem on it: Why is the water flowing so fast? The palace is full of leisure, and the red leaves are diligent and grateful. , so that you can go to the human world.
I thought this must have been done by someone in the palace, who became ill due to longing. So he wrote two sentences on another red leaf: I once heard that there was a red complaint on the leaf, and I wrote a poem on the leaf to address it. He threw the leaf into the upper reaches of the imperial ditch and let it flow into the palace.
Later, Yu You lived in the noble Han Yong's house. Han Yong treated him well and promised Mrs. Han, a maid released from the palace, to be Yu You's wife. After the marriage, Mrs. Han found the red leaves with the poem on it in Yu You's box. She was shocked and said that it was the poem she had written on it.
She also said that she also picked up a red leaf with a poem in the ditch afterwards. I took it out and saw that it was exactly what Yu You wrote.
The two believed that the red leaves were used as matchmakers, and it became a legend for a while. This matter is recorded in many books.
The first sentence of the poem: Water is gone and never comes back, implying that time is gone and never comes back, and people are getting older. Second sentence: He said that he lived in a deep palace and was very lonely.
Three or four sentences: Put the red leaves of the poem into the water, and go to the world to seek happiness. I hope that one day, like Hong Ye, I can leave the palace and live a happy life in the human world.
The poem is full of resentment, sadness and infinite hope. Later, Mr. Han said, when I got your red leaves, I wrote a poem about it.
She took it out, and the poem was: "Walking alone on the bank of the ditch, when the leaves are falling from the stream. Who would be in love with this? A heart-breaking couplet."
One day, Han Yong said to Mrs. Han, you should thank me for being the matchmaker. Mrs. Han said: Yu You and I are a match made in heaven.
So I took up pen and wrote a poem: a couplet with a beautiful line titled "Flowing Water" filled my heart with deep thoughts for ten years. Today I have become friends with Luan and Feng, and I know that Hongye is a good matchmaker. 4. Poems about letters

Li Shangyin's untitled poem expresses love and does not want to see each other through letters
Yes The first two lines of the poem.
It is difficult to say goodbye when we meet, the east wind is powerless and the flowers are withered. This is the most famous of the poet's many poems titled "Untitled".
The first couplet is a deep sigh caused by extreme lovesickness, highlighting the pain of separation in the reunion and separation. The sentence "The east wind is powerless and the flowers are withered" not only describes the natural environment, but also reflects the mood of the lyricist. Things and self blend together, and the soul and nature have achieved a subtle fit.
This kind of description that uses scenery to reflect people's situations and emotions is common in Li Shangyin's works. For example, the first two sentences of "A Night Rain Sends to the North": "You asked about the date of return, but the night rain in Bashan filled the autumn pond."
The second sentence not only symbolizes the poet's stay in Bashu, but also reflects the guest's departure from others. Boredom is the same as "The east wind is powerless and the flowers are withered". Realism and symbolism are integrated, giving emotions an external form that can be felt, which is commonly said to be a lyrical way of embodying emotions in the scenery.
The word "farewell" does not mean that we are saying goodbye at the moment, but refers to the completed forced separation.
There were lines in previous poems such as "It is so easy to say goodbye but it is so difficult to meet someone else" (Cao Pi's "Yan Ge Xing") and "It is so rare to say goodbye" ("Ding Duhu Ge" by Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty). This emphasizes the difficulty of reunion and laments the pain of separation. Li Shangyin takes this a step further and shows that because "it is difficult to meet each other", it is "difficult to say goodbye" - it is difficult to let go and the pain is unbearable.
"East wind" highlights the season, but it is also a metaphor for people's lovesickness. Because of the lingering emotions, people are as lifeless as withered spring flowers in late spring.
The two words "difficult" contain different meanings. The former "difficult" describes how difficult it was for the two to get together and how much they missed and pursued; the latter "difficult" describes the time of separation. The inseparability and the emotional suffering both parties endured after the breakup show how difficult and bitter the love life of this pair of lovers is. The second sentence writes about the late spring that hurts the other person.
Flowers bloom with the power of the spring breeze, but when the spring breeze is exhausted, the flowers will wither. If flowers are like this, what can people do? The poet here uses the scene of late spring to further express the deep sadness of what happened in this world.
The couplet goes on to write about the feelings that are "difficult to meet" and "difficult to say goodbye", and the expression is more tortuous and nuanced. The poet uses symbolic techniques to describe his infatuation and bitterness and his unrepentant pursuit of love.
The word "Si" in "Spring Silkworms will not stop spinning silk until they die" is homophonic with "Si". The whole sentence means that one's longing for the other person is like Spring Silkworms spinning silk until they die. "The tears will dry up when the candle turns to ashes" is a metaphor for the endless pain of not being able to be together, just like the wax tears will not dry up until the candle burns to ashes.
Longing for you will not stop, showing the depth of attachment, but you will be missing her for the rest of your life, but it also means that we will never meet again, and the future is hopeless. Therefore, your pain will be with you for the rest of your life. However, even though her future was hopeless, she would despise it until death and would remain attached to it for the rest of her life; despite the pain, she could only endure it.
Therefore, in these two sentences, there is not only the sadness and pain of disappointment, but also the lingering and burning persistence and pursuit. The pursuit is hopeless, but we still have to pursue it even in the hopelessness. Therefore, this pursuit also has a pessimistic color.
These emotions seem to be circulating endlessly, and it is difficult to find their clues; they also seem to form a multi-faceted three-dimensional body, and the whole picture cannot be seen from just one angle. The poet used only two metaphors to successfully express such a complex psychological state, which shows that his associations are very rich.
The sentence "Spring Silkworm" is first of all an association between the lingering feelings of human attachment and the endless silk spinning of spring silkworms, and then extends from the silkworm spinning to "death" to the life and death of human emotions. Unswerving, so he wrote "the thread will be exhausted until death", which makes this image have a variety of metaphorical meanings. "Making Silk", a Yuefu Western Song of the Southern Dynasties: "Spring silkworms should not grow old (shouldn't, here means "disregard"), and they are always pregnant with silk day and night.
Why regret that the tiny body is gone, the lingering will come naturally." The meaning is similar to the "Spring Silkworm" sentence in "Untitled".
However, the spring silkworm here, "Why would it be a pity to lose its tiny body", is an idea that comes from the expectation that "the lingering will have its own time" and the future is quite promising. This is not the case with the sentence "Spring Silkworms" in "Untitled". As far as it expresses the spirit of pursuit, the pursuit it expresses is hopeless, but it does not care whether there is hope or not. The emotional realm is different, and the association is more tortuous.
It is not uncommon to use the burning of candles as a metaphor for painful suffering in the Yuefu of the Southern Dynasties before Li Shangyin. For example, "Thinking of you is like a bright candle, burning in the sky in the middle of the night" (Wang Rong's "Since the King Comes Out"), "Thinking of you is like a candle at night, burning thousands of tears" (Chen Shuda, same title), etc.
"The wax torch turns to ashes before the tears dry" also uses a candle as a metaphor, but it does not simply use the wax tears to compare pain, but further uses "the wax torch turns to ashes before the tears dry" to reflect the painful feelings throughout life. Subsequently, the association is much more profound and complex than that of the predecessors, and the foundation of the image is therefore much richer. The above four sentences focus on revealing the inner emotional activities, making the indescribable complex feelings concrete, and they are wonderfully written.
The neck couplet infers and imagines the pain of lovesickness of the other person from the perspective of the poet's thoughtfulness and concern. The previous sentence depicts the image of a young woman "looking at the mirror with makeup, stroking her temples and hurting herself", which hints at the woman's longing and sorrow.
"Cloud temples change" means that due to painful torture, one can't sleep at night, so that the hair on the temples falls off and the face is haggard, which is what Wu Jun, a poet of the Six Dynasties, said, "Green temples change in sorrow, and beauty cries." It means "in the end" ("Six Ancient Poems with Xiao Xima Zi Xian"). However, the sentence "Xiao Jing" in "Untitled" talks about being sad about the "change of hair on the temples" when looking in the mirror in the morning, and it is "but sad" - only sad for this.
This vividly describes the twists and turns of spiritual activities, rather than simply describing the matter of youth being consumed by pain. At night he is languished with pain, and in the morning he is languished with pain.
The pain at night is because the pursuit of love cannot be realized; the haggardness and sorrow the next day is because of the hope of staying young for love. In short, the haggardness for love is painful and depressed. This kind of lingering and lingering feelings that circulate day and night still expresses the painful and persistent heart song.
The next sentence, "You should feel the moonlight is cold" uses the physical cold feeling to reflect the psychological desolation. The word "should" is a tone of speculation and expectation, indicating that everything is your imagination of the other party.
The vividness of her imagination reflects the depth of her longing for her lover and the depth of her understanding. It directly describes the desolate situation of a young woman missing her lovesickness on a cold night. She ponders in silence late at night, lonely and alone, and feels the biting coldness of the moonlight.
Delicately describing the other party's sorrow shows that the poet is considerate of the woman, and it also shows the poet's feelings even more. 6. Ancient poems about letters
"Autumn Thoughts" by Zhang Ji (Seeing the autumn wind in Luoyang city, I want to write a book full of meanings. I am afraid that I can't finish it in a hurry, and the traveler opens it again before leaving.), poet When writing letters home, I feel deeply homesick and full of tenderness. "One line of letters brings thousands of tears." The meaning of "being rushed into writing is not yet thick". When the person who brought the letter was about to set off, he was still worried about missing something and felt that there was still something unfinished. He opened the letter and wanted to add more, but he didn't know where to start. This detail is written very delicately and is very typical. It may seem plain, but it still has a strong charm. It can be said that "it seems ordinary and the most extraordinary, but it is easy but difficult to achieve." Therefore, "Tang Poems" believes that this poem "also echoes everyone's thoughts, and is as wonderful as the poem 'Meeting Immediately without Paper and Pen'." < /p>
Pan Deyu's "Yang Yizhai Poetry Talk" is even more highly praised, thinking that "it is a desperate situation among the seven extremes, and it is rare for a giant to reach this point in the prosperous Tang Dynasty." And Bai Juyi's "Two pages of books with endless moods, I want to close them and re-read them" "The meaning is late" is similar to it in terms of writing method; Wang Wan's "Where can the hometown book reach, return to Yan Luoyang" is expressed in "Yan Chuanchi Su", which also has a unique flavor. 7.
