Broken chapter
Bian Zhilin
You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery.
The landscape observer is watching you upstairs.
The bright moon decorated your window.
You decorated other people's dreams.

"Broken Chapter" was written in 1935. The first paragraph of the poem captures a picture of tourists watching the scenery during the day. Although it is written about "looking at the scenery", the pen and ink do not splash on the description of the scenery, but inadvertently reveal the bridges, buildings, tourists, and the running water, cruise ships and shore willows that can be inferred from it ... It is like a faint ink painting, leaving the vague background to the readers to imagine, and the focus of the picture falls on the people who look at the scenery. People on the bridge and upstairs.
You, standing on the bridge and watching the scenery, are obviously ecstatic in the face of the beautiful scenery in front of you. From the side comparison, we can see that he didn't notice that "the people watching the scenery upstairs are watching you". What is intriguing is that the upstairs person who obviously came to see the scenery boarded the tall building. What he saw in his eyes was not the scenery, but the "you" who stood on the bridge to see the scenery. Why don't people upstairs look at you and see the scenery? What deeply fascinated those eyes and touched that heart? This patient and patient "look" is really romantic, which makes the originally peaceful and pleasant picture suddenly rippling and swaying in Chun Qing, evoking many interesting dramatic scenes: "You" who are indifferent to the scenery must be a handsome young man who travels around the world, and the lover upstairs must be a lonely and affectionate woman who longs for spring and has a hard-to-find bosom friend, and a simple and honest girl who is addicted to the scenery. The eyes of a sentimental, stupid, sad person who is ashamed to speak his mind? It's really "falling flowers are intentional, running water is ruthless", and how many such encounters are there on the journey of life, love at first sight, fleeting and unforgettable love! It is with these two short lines that the poet left a picture of Yongheng Zhang, which, like the spark of calcium carbide, evoked memories and reverie of the indescribable and indescribable scene.
In the first section of the poem, realistic brushwork and songs convey the deep affection of the hidden people on the bridge to the scenery and the infinite goodwill of the people upstairs to the people on the bridge, which constitutes a dramatic scene of "falling flowers intentionally, running water ruthlessly". But affection is always annoyed by ruthlessness. Can people who are indifferent to the scenery on the bridge repay those who love them with the same kindness? Faced with this common scene in life, it often ends with helpless regret and endless melancholy memories. The poet gives us a wonderful answer full of fantasy and warm feelings with a unique romantic pen in his next poem.
Time moved to the moonlit night. The people on the bridge and upstairs returned to the rest place with their own satisfaction and deficiency. But who would have thought that in this silence, people's emotional investment during the day was unconsciously rewarded.
"The bright moon decorated your window", isn't this the warm return of natural scenery to people who are indifferent to the scenery on the bridge during the day? From your window decorated with bright moon, we can see how beautiful and charming moonlight will be displayed in the eyes of people on the bridge at this moment! Bridges, water, buildings, boats, willows ... everything outside the window is dissolved in this elegant, soft, misty and ethereal moonlight, which is so mysterious, so wonderful, so sweet and so comfortable compared with everything under the bright sun during the day. Facing the beautiful scenery under the moonlight, how can people believe that the natural scenery is indifferent and incomprehensible? How can we not arouse people's strong love for nature? If you love nature, nature will love you-this is the meaning of poetry!
