In order to make the written poems easy to understand, it is not necessary to pursue too many profound words to whitewash when writing, which makes people read very hard. The specious sentences in some poems seem to be "poetic", but they make readers confused. Even strange to readers, they seem determined not to be understood. In fact, it is a Tang poem more than 1000 years ago, and there are many classic poems that seem dull but have far-reaching influence on modern people, such as "Thinking about a Quiet Night": "Is there frost at the foot of my bed so bright?" . Looking up, I found that it was moonlight, sinking again, and I suddenly thought of home. " Writing poetry can express the scenery in front of you and the feelings in your heart with simple pen and ink, so it can be called a talented poet.
Some ancient poems seem unremarkable and strange, but they can arouse people's endless reverie and leave a deep impression on them. For example, Weng Juan's "April in the Country" in the Song Dynasty: "In April, there are few idle people in the country, and only silkworm fields are planted." This is both a poem and a painting. First reading is light, chewing is sweet. It condenses the scenes of life and injects secular sentiment. Another example is Lu You's "East Village": "Barbarians like me to wander around occasionally and persuade me to stay in a hurry with wine. When I left home, I brought a basket to pick vegetables. I asked Dan to buy pear heads in front of the door. " This is a story about Lu You being warmly welcomed by the villagers after he returned to Yinshan, but he didn't eat snacks. He suddenly saw a pear picker passing by and bought some small pears (villagers called pear heads). Things are cheap, and kindness is hard to measure. A few pears are better than delicacies, expressing the poet's feeling that a friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and praising the villagers' innocence and simple life. It can be seen that plainness is the highest quality of poetry, which is different from mediocrity and tasteless. It is a seemingly dull but profound scene written in simple and ordinary language, but what it pursues and achieves is a pure and beautiful realm.
Poetry is created for people's understanding. Only after reading can we appreciate and taste it, and even get lessons and enlightenment. Poems that even you can't understand can't be appreciated and enlightened. On the other hand, who wants to go to great lengths to interpret the artistic conception of a poem or two, or rack their brains to ponder its charm? In short, it is necessary to avoid being too colloquial and oppose being obscure. In other words, it can't be too straightforward and can't make people feel the same.
Throughout the ages, good poems that can spread through the ages and are well-known are comfortable, poetic and easy to interpret. I hope it helps you!
