Without the full poem, I can only infer that there are generally three intentions of peach blossom
1. Refers to a young and beautiful woman
Peach blossom as an aesthetic image , first appeared in "The Book of Songs", "The peach's peach blossoms are burning with its blossoms." Fang Runyu believes: ""Peach Blossoms" only uses its color to describe the 'son', and the spring blossoms are in full bloom, that is, when the youth is in its prime, so it is "Peach blossoms symbolize health, youth, and beautiful women." At first, peach blossoms helped women form an indissoluble bond, and this continued in later poems. Peach blossoms are brightly colored and are often used by poets to praise women's beauty, and are often associated with love. People praise women's beauty. Beauty is often referred to as "peach blossom face" and "peach blossom color". Cui Hu's "Inscription on Capital City Nanzhuang": "On this day last year, in this gate, the human face and the peach blossoms reflected each other's red. I don't know where the human face has gone, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze." This is a poignant and sentimental story, a beautiful encounter, and a woman's brilliant face. As brilliant as a peach blossom, it has been in the poet's heart for a long time. However, reality cannot escape time, and it is destined to be a passing ending. The following year, when the poet returned to that place, things had changed and only the splendor remained. The peach blossoms are still there. Since then, "human faces have peach blossoms"
2. Relying on the feeling of cherishing spring and hurting spring
In the spring season, peach blossoms are in full bloom, vying for beauty. After a short flowering period, the glory is gone and drifting away. In the wind and rain, it is easy for literati to cherish the spring and miss the spring. "February brings beauty, and spring brings peach and plum blossoms" (Gao Jin's "A Banquet at the Dark Sun in Gao's Forest Pavilion"). Peach blossoms are a symbol of spring.
3. Expressing the thoughts of hometown
The sentiment of nostalgia is deeply rooted in ancient Chinese poetry, and there are countless such examples in Tang poetry, and just in When describing the landscape of his hometown and expressing his homesickness, peach trees, willows, plums, white and peach reds have become an important image. Liu Changqing "The willows in my hometown encourage visitors from the south, and the spring water and peach blossoms are waiting to return from the north" ("Thinking of Home in Spring") Xue Nengyun "Ten Years of Throwing "Hometown flowers, the most reminiscent of the red peach and bamboo slanting outside" ("Revisiting Tongpo Pavilion") After they left their hometown and felt that the world was drifting away, the peach blossoms became their emotional sustenance, and the warm peaches and plums formed a strong connection in that wandering. The contrast makes the poets look at their hometown in the distance and miss them deeply. But peach blossoms also have the intention of a paradise, such as Peach Blossom Spring.
The peach blossoms of the past are here. If it is written by a young man or woman, it is mostly about missing feelings or lovers. .
If you are middle-aged, you should miss your hometown and reminisce about the past
