Liu Yong and Zhang Zhi
This poem sings the spring breeze through the willow tree, compares the spring breeze to scissors, says that she is the creator of beauty, and praises her for cutting out the spring. This poem is full of people's joy in early spring. The novelty and appropriateness of metaphor and metaphor is the success of this poem. "Notes on Tang Poetry" says: "Things are wonderful, but the meaning is soft."
This is an object-chanting poem about willow trees in early spring and February.
Where should I start writing willow? There is no doubt that the beauty of its image lies in Naman's long branches. Once a year, it grows new green leaves and hangs down, which has a charming posture in the spring breeze. This is something that everyone can appreciate. In classical poetry, we often see this kind of image beauty to describe and compare a beautiful woman's slim figure and graceful waist branches. This poem is original. Turn it over. "Jasper pretends to be a tall tree". At first, Liu Yang appeared as a beautiful woman: "Thousands of threads of moss tapestry hang down", and these countless threads became her nepotism. The word "Gao" in the previous sentence sets off the graceful charm of beautiful Tingting; The word "hanging" in the next sentence means that the slender waist is swaying in the wind. There are no words "willow" and "waist branch" in the poem, but the beauty embodied by weeping willows and willows in early spring is vividly written. "Southern History" said that Liu Yong was the secretariat of Yizhou and presented several Shu Liu plants. "These stripes are very long and look like silk threads." Emperor Wu of Qi planted these willows in the Taichang cloud and in front of the temple, saying that they were "romantic and lovely". Here, wicker is called "green silk tapestry", which may be the hidden use of this famous allusion about willow. But it's a waste, and you can't see any traces.
"Jasper makeup" leads to "moss tapestry" and "who cut it". Finally, the intangible "spring breeze" is also vividly portrayed by "scissors". These "scissors" cut out bright green flowers and plants and put on a new makeup for the earth. It is the symbol of natural vitality and the inspiration of spring to people's beauty. From Jasper Makeup to Scissors, we can see a series of processes of the poet's artistic conception. A series of images in poetry are closely linked.
Some people may think: There were many famous beauties in ancient China, Liu. Why should we compare them with Jasper? I think this has two meanings: first, the name Jasper is related to the color of willow, and the words "green" and "green" in the next sentence complement each other. Second, Jasper will always leave a young impression in people's hearts. When it comes to Jasper, people will associate it with the popular Jasper Song "When Jasper Broke a Melon" and Jasper's Little Family Daughter (Xiao Yi Picking Lotus Poems) and other poems. Jasper has almost become a general term for young and beautiful women in ancient literary works. Comparing willow with jasper, people will imagine that this beauty has not yet reached its heyday; This willow is still a willow in early spring, and it is not the time to hide crows with dense branches and leaves; This is also related to the "thin leaves" and "February spring breeze" below.
In early spring, he became Han Yu of the Ministry of Water Resources.
This is a seven-character quatrain that describes and praises the beauty of early spring. The first sentence points out the light rain in early spring, and describes it as smooth and moist with "moist as crisp", which accurately captures its characteristics. The sentence is fresh and beautiful. There is also Du Fu's "Good rain knows the season, when spring comes." Sneaking into the night with the wind, moistening things silently "has the same effect."
The second sentence closely follows the first sentence, which describes the scenery after the rain. It's green from a distance, but it's not green from a close look. It depicts the hazy scene of grass soaking in rain in early spring. This can be compared with Wang Wei's "Fogs, when I enter them, they disappear" and "The color of the mountain exists and does not exist".
Three or four sentences praise the scenery in early spring: "The most important thing is the benefits of spring, which is definitely better than tobacco willow." The light rain and grass color in early spring are the most beautiful things in the spring of a year, far exceeding the late spring scenery of the city of smoke and willow. Poetry about spring scenery, in Tang poetry, mostly takes beautiful late spring, but this poem takes early spring chant, thinking that early spring scenery is better than late spring, which is innovative. The exquisite observation of the scenery in the first two sentences is admirable, and the last two sentences are even more unexpected, such as the sudden arrival of cavalry.
In this poem, the poet only uses simple words to describe the unique scenery of early spring with common "light rain" and "grass color". Delicate descriptions, beautiful sentences and novel ideas give people a moist, comfortable and fresh aesthetic feeling in early spring.

Yuan Mei seems to have seen it.
In the vagina of the wild forest, a little shepherd boy slowly rides on the back of a cow. I don't know what to be happy about. He sang all the way, crisp and loud, and the whole tree was shocked by him.
Suddenly, the song stopped, and the little shepherd boy's back straightened, his mouth closed and his eyes were fixed on the high treetops. "cicada, cicada, cicada ..." In the tree, a cicada is also singing smugly. It is it that attracts the little shepherd boy. He really wants to catch cicada!
This scene was seen by the poet and written into the poem. The poet first wrote about the dynamics of the little shepherd boy, and Gao sitting bull's style of singing loudly on his back was so loose and presumptuous; After writing the little shepherd boy's static state, how intently he held his breath and looked at the cicada! This change from dynamic to static is both sudden and natural, vividly depicting the innocent and busy image of the little shepherd boy. As for the next step, the poet hasn't written it yet, leaving it to the readers.
Qiu Si Zhangji
The annual autumn wind,
It blew into Luoyang city,
Urged me to write a letter from home,
Communicate with the people you love.
The messenger is about to leave,
I opened the sealed envelope again,
Just add a few more words,
Endless worries,
Helpless and hasty.
Liu Yuxi, an autumn poet
Since ancient times, I feel sad and lonely every autumn.
I think autumn is better than spring.
A crane flies in the clear sky of Wan Li.
It triggered my poetry about the blue sky.
