Goose Goose, Xiang Tiange.
White feathers, floating in green water; The red soles of the feet stir the clear water.
Translation:
Goose, goose, goose, facing the blue sky, a group of geese are singing with their necks bent. White feathers, floating on the green water. The red soles of the feet stirred the clear water waves.
Appreciate:
The first sentence of the poem uses three words "goose" in succession. This repeated singing method expresses the poet's love for geese and enhances the emotional effect. In the second sentence, the expression of geese chirping gives people hearing.
The voice of the goose is loud, and the word "Qu" makes the image of the goose craning its neck and bowing its head to the sky very vivid. This sentence writes what you see first, then what you hear, which is very hierarchical. The above is about geese marching on land, and the following two sentences are about geese swimming leisurely in the water.
Creative background:
Ode to Goose is said to be a poem written by Luo when he was seven years old. When he was a child, Luo lived in a small village in the north of Yiwu County. There is a pond outside the village called Luojiatang. Every spring, wicker flutters by the pond, the water is crystal clear, and geese flock on the water, which makes the scenery particularly charming. One day, a guest came to the house.
Seeing that he was handsome and clever, the guests asked him a few questions. Seven-year-old Wang always answers questions, which surprises the guests. When Wang Luobin followed the guests to Luojiatang, a flock of white geese floated in the pond. The guests were interested in trying Wang Luobin, so they pointed to the goose and asked him to write a poem with it. Wang Luobin wrote this poem after a little thought.
"Goose Fu" is a poem describing objects, focusing on the similarities and differences of things. Objects should have both form and spirit, reflecting wealth and happiness. It is not a simple thing, but it cannot be separated from the original thing. The "god" here, of course, is not owned by the object itself. As an object without feelings and thoughts, there can be no "God", but its shape often communicates with people's mind in some way, so it is possible to express the author's emotional spirit by depicting the shape of things.
