The four-line poem is a fragment of an event, an exciting emotional state, not its whole process (event or emotion), and the poem will end at the highest point of emotional flight.
The structural feature of the five-rhythm poem is to describe a complete event process, which is a standard and classic core poem style. In five-character poems, the beauty of language is usually reflected by two couplets in the middle, and the artistic conception of the poem is also constructed.
Example: A Buddhist retreat behind the Broken Mountain Temple:
The whole poem gives people a feeling of frog jumping into the ancient pond, the contrast between the present and eternity, the moment when frog jumped into the water, and the eternity of the ancient pond.
As mentioned above, the antithesis in the five-rhythm poem should not only show the beauty of rhetoric and artistic conception, but also reflect a certain process.
This poem expresses two processes: one is the process of travel, that is, the process of space. Second, the psychological process, these two processes are integrated.
From entering the ancient temple to winding paths leading to secluded places, the space is getting deeper and deeper, and people and hearts are getting closer and closer.
The nature of pleasing birds-children are not fish, do you know the happiness of fish? When we are immersed in nature and happy, we know the happiness of birds and fish from the singing of birds and the happy swimming of fish.
And the human mind touches tranquility in a pool of water-using the pool water to express silent photos-dance, wind and heart.
The world exists in everyone's feelings, and everyone feels different. A calm and clean heart can truly reflect the essence of this world, like a clear pool of water, reflecting and clarifying an empty heart.
The author approached the depths of nature and described the scenery he saw, which contained profound Buddhist truth, so the process of entering nature was also a process of approaching people's hearts.
The two processes are written together, and in an increasingly quiet atmosphere, people's hearts are also quiet, and then they deeply feel the integration of the essence of the world and the essence of life.
And 1000 kinds of sounds are quiet, only the smell of the bell is fragrant. At the end of the five laws, poetry will have an outward extension, increasing the level of poetry. However, this extension should conform to the personality characteristics of this article.
