Wang Zhihuan, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote a famous ancient poem in "The Heron Tower", which can vividly describe the winter scene of ancient people, that is, "the mountains cover the daytime, and the sea drains the golden river".
Although by going up one flight of stairs's poem, which is thousands of miles away, does not directly describe the winter scene, it shows the desolation of mountains and the scene of ice and snow in the cold winter through the description of "the mountains cover the day", which makes people involuntarily associate with the living conditions of the ancients in the cold winter.
In addition, Su Shi's "Night Scene of the Spring River in Hui Chong" also has a sentence describing the winter scenery: "The laundry girl returns to the bamboo to sing, and the lotus leaves are harvested before the fishing boat. My friend's prince, what does it matter if spring is over and you are still here? By describing the noisy sound of bamboo and the swaying movements of lotus flowers, this poem vividly outlines the tranquility and cold of the riverside in winter and shows the living conditions of the ancients in winter.
Although these sentences do not directly describe the winter scenes of the ancients, they reflect the coldness of winter through the description of the natural environment, which makes people associate and feel the winter life of the ancients when reading.
There are many vivid descriptions of ancient winter scenes in ancient poems. Here are some examples:
1. Du Fu wrote in "Remembering Brothers on a Moonlit Night": "Wanderers listen to war drums, and wild geese sing autumn colors. The dew turns to frost tonight, and the moonlight at home is bright! Brothers are scattered, and no one can ask about life and death. However, if there is something wrong with letters in peacetime, what can I expect in wartime? This poem depicts the drums on the garrison building, the singing of birds in autumn, and the author's yearning for his hometown and relatives, showing the loneliness and hardship of ancient people in winter.
2. Bai Juyi wrote in "Farewell to Ancient Grass": The vast grass crosses the plain and comes and goes with the four seasons. Wildfire can't burn it out, but the spring breeze can revive it. Weeds and wild flowers are all over the ancient road, and the end of the grass in the sun is your journey. I once again sent my bosom friend, and the thick grass represented my deep affection. "This poem depicts the alternation of grasslands, the burning of wildfires and the blowing of spring breeze, expressing the sadness of the ancients for parting and the hope for the future in the change of years.
3. Wang Zhihuan wrote in "The Heron Tower": The mountains cover the daytime, and the sea exhausts the golden river. Although the poem "by going up one flight of stairs sees thousands of miles away" does not directly depict the scene of winter, it shows the spirit of the ancients to forge ahead in the cold winter through the description of mountains and rivers.
These poems vividly show the scenes and thoughts of the ancients in winter by describing the natural environment and humanistic feelings, and bring readers feelings and thoughts about the lives of the ancients.
