The original text of the modern poem "Mother" by Bing Xin:
Mother!
The storm in the sky is coming,
The bird hides in its nest;
The storm in the heart is coming,
I Just hide in your arms.
Creative background: The poem "Mother" was written when she saw a big lotus leaf covering a red lotus on a rainy day and was moved by the scene. "Mother! You are a lotus leaf, I am Honglian. When the raindrops in my heart come, who is my shelter under the unobstructed sky?" Based on the feelings of the lotus leaves protecting the red lotus in the rain, Bing Xin wrote the poem "Mother", saying that mother is the only reliable person in life? The thoughts and feelings of spiritual refuge are condensed more vividly and profoundly, praising the great selflessness of "mother".
