What are the symbolic words in China's ancient poems?

There are many more, such as ice and snow, willow, cicada, moon, vegetation, pavilion, fragrant grass, banana, catkin, phoenix tree, plum blossom and so on.

Ice and snow: the crystallization of ice and snow is a metaphor for the loyalty of the soul and the nobility of character. For example, "Luoyang relatives and friends ask each other, and a piece of ice heart is in the jade pot." The ancients used "as clear as jade pot ice" as a metaphor for a person's open and aboveboard mind. Another example is "I should miss Linghai for many years, alone, my liver and lungs are all ice and snow." During her one-year career in Lingnan, her personality and conduct are as crystal clear and noble as ice and snow.

Moon: homesickness for the moon-sadness and homesickness that cause parting. For example, "looking up, I found that it was moonlight, and then sinking, I suddenly remembered home." For example, "There are 300,000 people in the village, and I look back at the moon for a while." Hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the vast desert looked up at the rising moon and could not help but feel homesick for a while.

Willow: Fold the willow and say goodbye. Since the Han Dynasty, people have often expressed their feelings of parting by folding willows, which triggered the yearning for distant relatives and the homesickness of travelers. For example, the poem "Farewell" tested by 1987: the willows are hanging on the ground and the flowers are flying in the sky. Willow branches are broken and flowers are flying. Will pedestrians come back?

Cicada: Cicada is virtuous. The ancients thought that cicada eating wind and drinking dew was a symbol of nobility, so the ancients often used cicada's nobility to express its noble character. "Tang Poetry" says: "Every time a cicada sings, it respects its nature."

Vegetation: compare the desolation and prosperity of vegetation to express ups and downs. For example, "after ten miles of spring breeze, wheat is green." (Jiang Kui's "Yangzhou Slow") The spring breeze is ten miles, and Yangzhou Road, which was once very prosperous, is now full of green wheat and desolate. "The old garden is bleak and new, and Ling sings without winning spring." The willows in the wasteland of the old garden of Wu State have sprouted new branches (desolation). Looking back, it is more beautiful than when the song and dance were crowing in spring. Here, lush willows set off desolation.

Indus: In China's classical poems, similar to banana, most of them express a sad voice. Bai Juyi's Song of Eternal Sorrow: "Peach and plum blossom, spring breeze blows, autumn rain falls." The cold rain in autumn hits the plane blades, which makes people miserable. Li Yu's "Hui Huan": "Solitary phoenix tree, deep courtyard lock clear autumn." Wen Tingyun's "More Leaks": "The plane tree, it rains in the middle of the night, and it leaves a bitter feeling, and it drops to the light in an empty step." Li Qingzhao's Slow Voice: "The phoenix tree is raining and dripping at dusk." It can be seen that the autumn rain hits the phoenix tree, and there is no sorrow.

Plum Blossom: "Flowers are precious, since the Warring States Period", and a large number of Yongmei's poems appeared in Liang and Chen Dynasties. Most of the plum blossom poems in this period are descriptions of flowers themselves or used for farewell, and there is no obvious symbolic sustenance. By the Tang and Song Dynasties, plum blossom had become a symbol of noble personality. Zhang Lei: "Why accompany Gao Jie, Qing Xiao Ge" Huang Ting "; Zhang Zemin: "A snow is similar, but I don't know it alone." "White skin, clear style. "Su Shi:" Shi Lao didn't know Meg was here, but looked at the green leaves. "Lu You:" Scattered into mud, crushed into dust, only the fragrance remains. "They all placed a noble character in the description of plum blossoms.
