As for the feelings of poetry, I simply divide her into two kinds. One is the feeling of temperature, and the other is the feeling of no temperature. The so-called temperature is perceptual, and these two feelings are also perceptual and rational. Generally speaking, emotional people are full of feelings, while rational people are indifferent. But both sensibility and rationality are poetic feelings.
Emotions with temperature, that is, poems with strong emotional colors, are generally dominated by love, affection, friendship and hymns. These poems are full of emotion, straightforward in expression and vivid in emotion. Typical poems are Shu Ting's To the Oak Tree and Ai Qing's Dayan River, My Nanny. Generally speaking, these poems have a strong rhythmic beauty, which is catchy to read and easy to recite.
Emotions without temperature, that is, more rational poems, generally write some themes about philosophy, truth and social phenomena. These poems are rational in emotion, implicit in expression, obscure in words and short in length. A typical example is Tagore's poem Birds. These poems generally conquer readers with concise words, simple structure, rigorous ideas and wise thoughts.
When grasping these two kinds of feelings, we should handle the relationship between feelings and words, and express the truest feelings with the most appropriate words. These two feelings actually represent another division of poetry-the division of length: long poems and short poems. Long poems and short poems are like Buddhist enlightenment and epiphany. The former is the continuity of thinking, and the latter is the flash of inspiration. For emotional people, it is generally easy to be impulsive. Once feelings and inspiration break out, it will be out of control. Write a long poem at this time (relatively long, not a long poem in some definition). At this time, feelings and words are like a rolling river, which can generally be achieved in one go, but not in one go, and basically a satisfactory framework can be outlined.
And a rational person is relatively rational and thoughtful, so he worries too much. The inspiration came, and he was not suitable for writing long poems. At this time, short poems are his best choice. After careful consideration, poets can generally find the most accurate and concise words to express their feelings. This kind of poem needs the spirit of "breaking a few whiskers" of the ancients. The poems written in this way are charming and chewy.
Of course, nothing is absolute. The words I use in these long poems and short poems are not aimed at the poet's character, but at the state before the poet wrote the poem. Because no one can classify a person as what kind of person, good person or bad person is inaccurate, just like sensibility and rationality, human personality is a pendulum movement, so I am talking about the personality state of the poet before writing poetry.
The above is just my humble opinion as a friend of poetry for many years.
