Acacia is the work of Wang Wei, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, and it is a poem that praises things and sends acacia. This poem is about acacia, but the whole article can't be separated from red beans, and the name of acacia is being used to associate acacia. The first sentence is about the origin of red beans; The second sentence asks "how many branches to send", which is very simple and vivid. If you ask nature, you will tease your feelings. Three sentences are "more choices" for friends. The words are here and the meaning is there; The last paragraph clearly shows its acacia nature, and it is pushed to the extreme with the word "most", so the truth of "picking more" is self-evident, and its own meaning is also deeply contained. The whole poem is lively, but euphemistic and implicit, and shallow and affectionate. According to legend, he composed and sang for people at that time, which was popular in Jiangnan.

Literary appreciation
This is a poem that expresses the yearning for love by chanting things, and it is a work that cares about friends as soon as possible. Sentences are inspired by things, and the language is simple but imaginative; Then, I sent a message with questions, which meaningfully entrusted my feelings; The third sentence implies cherishing friendship. On the surface, it seems nostalgic, but behind it, there is a deep weight of love. The last pun is not only to the point, but also to the feelings. It is beautiful and elegant. The whole poem is elegant and smart, full of thoughts, unpretentious language and harmonious and feminine rhythm. It can be described as the best of quatrains.
Red beans are produced in the south. They are strong, bright red and round, as crystal clear as coral. Southerners often use them as decorations. Legend has it that there was a woman in ancient times, because her husband died by the side and cried under the tree and turned into red beans, so people called her "Xiangsisi". It is often used to describe lovesickness in Tang poetry. And "lovesickness" is not limited to the scope of love between men and women, but also includes friends. For example, Su Li's poem "It's hard for pedestrians to stay for a long time, and each has its own lovesickness language" is an example. The title of this poem is "A Gift from the River to Li Guinian", which shows that this poem expresses the feelings of caring for friends.
"Southland" (South) is not only the origin of red beans, but also the place where friends are. The first sentence begins with "when those red berries come in spring", which insinuates the acacia below. The language is extremely simple and full of images. The second sentence, "Your southern branches are flushed," was asked softly. Naturally, the tone of the message was particularly cordial. However, it is meaningful to ask you only Flushing, a red bean on the southern branch. This is to choose something full of emotion to express your feelings. When you passed my window, did the plum blossom bloom its first cold flower? ? (Wang Wei's Miscellaneous Poems) The memory of Li Shu reflects the deep homesickness of Hakka people. Similarly, the red beans here are also a symbol of sincere friendship. If you write like this, you will feel that language is close to love and far away.
The third sentence is followed by the message of "pick more red beans", which means the same thing. Picking plants to express nostalgia is a common practice in classical poetry. For example, an ancient poem in the Han Dynasty said, "She picked hibiscus in the Suijiang River and many fragrant grasses in Lanze. Who will stay behind?" Thinking is a long way "is an example. "For my sake, take a hug and go home," as if to say, "When you see red beans, think about everything about me. "It is suggested that friends from afar cherish friendship, and the language is sincere and touching. Here, I only use acacia to tell people, but my own acacia is seen between the lines. Expressing feelings in this way is elegant, moving and meaningful. Song people compiled 10 thousand Tang poems, and the word "duo" in this sentence is "Hugh" Using the word "Hugh" to compare the pain of lovelorn, from lovesickness to lovephobia, is of course a human feeling in a certain situation. The use of the word "duo" shows a warm and passionate bodybuilding mood. This poetry is high without hurting delicacy, and it has a great relationship with the word "Duo", so the word "Duo" is better than the word "Hugh". At the end of the title, "Acacia" echoes the first sentence "Red Bean", which not only hits the name of "Acacia", but also has something to do with the love of Acacia. " As a symbol of our love "is like saying: only this red bean is the most lovely and unforgettable." This is a supplementary reason to explain why "give me a hug and go home". And readers can appreciate more things from words. It goes without saying that the poet can't really forget. The advanced adverb "zui" has profound meaning, which increases the implication of puns.
The whole poem is permeated with the enthusiasm of teenagers, the breath of youth and full of feelings. Every word does not leave the red bean, but it is "outside the elephant, in the middle" to express the love of acacia. It is "in one go", which is extremely vivid but euphemistic. In life, the most affectionate words are often plain and natural. Wang Wei is very good at refining this simple and typical language to express profound thoughts and feelings. So it is not surprising that this poem is simple and affectionate and became a popular song at that time.

I advise you not to take it off as a symbol of our love. "
The quatrains in the Tang Dynasty can be divided into quatrains that conform to the rules of flat lines and quatrains that do not require rules. Because the word "Spring and Autumn" is flat, even if it is required by law. However, "Ji" is a flat tone, "Gu" is a flat tone, and "Gu" meets the standard according to the metrical requirements. According to the artistic conception of poetry, acacia trees born in the south really germinate and bloom in autumn, and the "old branches" already include several branches.
Different versions of the sentence "Take a hug home for my sake" include "Give it to the monarch", "Suggest the monarch" and "Don't take it off"
