On the evening of June 20 19, the poetry reading meeting of Changyi Writers Association and the third literary salon were successfully held in the auditorium on the fourth floor of Wenshan College. More than 70 writers' association members and literary lovers gathered together to share a literary feast with poetry as the medium and singers as partners!
Sun, member of Chinese Writers Association, deputy director of Shandong Poetry Committee, Zhu Jianxia, member of Chinese Writers Association and Shandong Writers Association attended the event. Yao, Chairman of Changyi Writers Association, Li Faning and Dong, Vice Chairmen, and Guo Aihua, Secretary General attended the event. The party was hosted by Li Faning, vice chairman of Changyi Writers Association.
Teacher Sun said in his speech that literature should be treated as sincerely as a lover. We follow the footsteps of literature and enjoy reading and writing. In reading and writing, feel the beauty of words, find the source of spirit, express inner feelings and please yourself and others. Writing can not only enrich your own experience, but also give back to the voice of an era.
President Yao delivered a speech on behalf of Changyi Writers Association. She first welcomed the arrival of the two teachers and thanked them for coming to Changyi in spite of their busy schedules. Welcome the members and literary friends of Changyi Writers Association to the party, congratulate you on your outstanding achievements in your work and creation recently, thank you for your support and dedication to the work of the Writers Association, and give you good expectations and wishes. Chairman Yao said that everything grows in June, and teachers and friends get together and are happy. They should grow up in seasons and natural beauty. Speaking of Gu Cheng, Chairman Yao said with deep affection that the poet Gu Cheng spent his beautiful years from youth to youth in Huodao Village, a small village on the northern coast of Changyi, and Gu Cheng's poems took off from this land of Changyi. Poetry is the jewel in the crown of literature, and every good poem is an indispensable history. She said that literature is ultimately a matter of being kind to others. We use our hearts to find the light of life and use poetry to light up our spiritual world. As Gu Cheng said, the night gave me black eyes, but I used them to look for light.
At the poetry recital, members successively recited the representative works of the poet Gu Cheng in different periods, such as: I am a small town, Let's find a lamp, I praise the world, and I am a wayward child. The recitation was wonderful and the applause was warm. All the participants are infected by the rich literary atmosphere and immersed in it, such as drinking sweet spring. In the middle of the activity, prose poems were interspersed to recite "The Poet's Days in Changyi" and sing songs such as "Looking at the Moon" and "Heaven", and there was applause. The guzheng solo "Cloud Water Zen Heart" is like the strings moving naturally, and everyone is intoxicated by it, enjoying the beauty of the sea and mountains and rivers. The last song "I Love You China" expressed everyone's patriotic feelings in the strong atmosphere of celebrating the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. In the beautiful and passionate melody and prolonged applause, the whole party ended successfully.
This activity was strongly supported by Changyi Tea Culture Association, Shandong Xianglong Jianye Group and Changyi Radio Station.
