Appreciation of Aiqing Reef

The image of the reef described in the poem Reef is like a man who has stood the test of struggle. No matter what wind, no matter how many injuries and blows, it can't move a step, nor will it lose its faith and confidence in life. The rocks hit by knife waves still face the ocean slightly, and the soldiers who have gone through hardships are still brave and strong.

Through this poem, the poet expressed his sincere praise for this tenacious life. This kind of existence can be a person, or it can be the motherland in all kinds of troubles and oppression. There is no direct call sign in this poem, only a calm and objective description, with a bystander's narrative perspective, as if the poet is just presenting a fact.

Rock-Ai Qing

Wave after wave

Come to me endlessly

Every wave is at its feet.

Break into pieces, scatter ...

Its face and body.

Like a knife.

But it's still standing there

Looking at the sea with a smile ...

Creative background of reef

1954 In July, the poet Ai Qing visited Chile at the invitation of the Chilean House of Representatives to congratulate the great Chilean poet Nie Luda on his 50th birthday. The rock was written by the poet on July 25th, 1954, that is, during this visit.

And at the beginning of socialist construction in new China, everything was in full swing. However, the difficulties faced by China are hard to disappear, let alone "surrounded by imperialism". As far as economic construction is concerned, difficulties and blows have never stopped.

In such a new historical period, the people of China need spiritual encouragement as much as in wartime. Rock and roll was born at the right time, and it really inspired several generations of China people.
