House of Bamboo
Author: Wang Wei
I leaned alone in the dense bamboo, playing the piano and humming a song.
It's too light for anyone to hear, except my partner, Mingyue.

On a moonlit night, sitting alone in the depths of the bamboo forest; Sometimes I play the piano, sometimes I whistle.
The bamboo forest is faint and deep, unknown, sitting alone without company; Only the bright moon seems to understand, and the photo is off-center.
Comments:
This little poem has four sentences. Looking at it separately, there is neither touching scenery nor touching love; I can't find out which word is poetic eye, and it's hard to say which sentence is warning.
In describing the scenery in the poem, only six words are used to form three words, namely "secluded place", "deep forest" and "bright moon". For the moon that shines on the earth, there is nothing new and ingenious about using the word "Ming" to describe its brightness. It's a common saying. As for the first sentence,
In fact, "bamboo" and "forest" in the third sentence are the same thing, which is the repetition of the bamboo forest where the author lives. The words "secluded" and "deep" are added in front of the bamboo forest, but it shows that it is neither the "bamboo with three poles and two poles" mentioned in Yu Xin's Xiao Yuan Fu nor the "green water post and Zhu Cong" mentioned by Liu Zongwu.
When writing about people's activities in poetry, only six words are used to form three words, namely, "sitting alone", "playing the piano" and "whistling". For the characters, they didn't describe how they played Xiao Shu, and they didn't express their emotions. For the piano sound and whistle, I didn't spend any ink to write its timbre and sound.
On the surface, the words used in the four poems are unremarkable. But when the four poems are combined together, they have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they contain a special artistic charm. The beauty of a masterpiece in Wang Wei's "Wang Chuan Bie Ji" lies in such an artistic conception that people naturally attract it. It does not win with words, but regards beauty as a whole. Its beauty lies in its absence. To appreciate and appreciate its beauty, we should take its appearance as its spirit, and its spirit is contained in the artistic conception. As far as artistic conception is concerned, it not only gives people the feeling of "secluded amorous feelings" ("My Servant Poems"), but also makes people feel that the scenery of the secluded forest on this moonlit night is so ethereal and clear, and the people who play the piano and shout during it are so carefree, dusty and seamless. On the other hand, in language, we can see the flavor from nature, from plain high rhyme. Its natural and simple style beauty and artistic conception beauty complement each other.
As you can imagine, the author is in a state of peace of mind and clarity of mind, and the bamboo forest and the bright moon themselves have the property of' peace and clarity' to meet calmly and start writing. The formation of poetic artistic conception depends entirely on the consistency between the character's mind and the internal quality of the scenery written, without the help of external hue. So, when I am integrated with things, feelings and scenery, can the author be like Si Kongtu's poem? Nature "said," Look at everything, don't take neighbors, follow the right path, and it will become spring scenery ",and enter the artistic world of" thin words and feelings, leisurely days ". Of course, when we say "everywhere" here, we don't mean that the author has no choice but to take materials easily; When we say "starting from scratch" here, we don't mean that the author didn't arrange it when he was in power. The poem describes the surrounding scenery, choosing bamboo forests and bright moons, which is consistent with the quiet environment to be expressed; Express your feelings in poetry, one chooses to play the piano and whistle, and then the other expresses it with the tranquility and clarity of mind. This is the immediate matter, and the reason why he wrote this scene and this matter has his own mature poetic thought. Judging from the combination of the whole poem, the author wrote a piano and a whistle while writing a secluded forest on a moonlit night, expressing tranquility with his voice. As for the last sentence of the poem, it not only contrasts with the "people don't know" in the previous sentence, but also plays a role in breaking the dark night. The contrast between these sounds and silence, as well as light and shadow, is ingenious and ingenious in arrangement.
