that night
Author: Lin
That night, my boat was pushed out of the river,
There are dense stars in the clear blue sky.
That night, you held my hand,
The lost starry night blockade relieves anxiety.
That night, you and I parted ways,
Each of them realized the emergence of life.
My boat is still floating on the sea,
Thin masts often sway in the wind and waves.
So far, the sun has only wandered behind me,
Layers of shadows surround me.
I still remember that night,
Starlight, tears, the white river!
I still miss your farming on the shore;
Red flowers, yellow flowers and bright flowers.
I hope to reach the top that day,
Honey generally moistens memories.
On that day, I will step on an arrow with wings.
Look at your garden and shoot a complete string.
On that day, you will hear songs like birds.
That is, I am waiting for your appreciation.
On that day, you will see messy flower shadows.
That is, I broke into the border of that year!
Walking to the door of the mobile phone shop in the industrial zone, Xie Jun's song "That Night" suddenly sounded at the door, and his hoarse voice spread all over the street. "That night, you didn't refuse me; That night, I hurt you; That night, your face was full of tears; That night, you were drunk for me ... It was not an accident, nor was it a wish ... "Suddenly I remembered Lin's poem" That Night "I saw on the Internet a few days ago, and suddenly I felt a little similar to this lyric. No overtime tonight, White Horse. I will read this poem carefully.

This poem is divided into three sections and 22 lines. Starting from that night, the first six sentences of the whole poem are the first verse, the seventh to fourteenth sentences are the second verse, and the fifteenth to last sentence is the third verse. This is a poet's spiritual monologue about his girlhood and the past of his youth. This poem has a touch of sadness, sober reason and a trace of attachment. At that time, it was published under the pseudonym of "Ruler" in the second issue of Poetry in April of 193 1.
At this time, the poet Lin had married Liang Sicheng. The poet wrote this poem as a memory of the past years, as if he had caught a glimpse and could not bear to look back. At that time, Erh Lin was seventeen years old. When she met Xu Zhimo in London, she was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. Things are different, and each has its own home. Surging youth and unfinished heart of the past, like stars bound in the galaxy, we can only look up. The talented woman forest is no exception.
That night, my boat was pushed out of the river. This "that night" not only refers to the last night when they met, but also implies the moment when the poet said goodbye to his friends in his heart. My boat and the center of the river are metaphors. The heart of the river represents the feelings of mutual affinity, and my boat represents my own feelings. The word "push" is used in places with a strong sense of quantity. Push out, this is the exit. When Xu Zhimo met the poet in London, he was married, and the poet happened to be in his prime. The friendship between two people makes each other very excited. Xu Zhimo has the idea of divorce, and Lin also understands his situation-this is really against the world. Judging from Lin's handling of this feeling, she is really rational and calm enough. Even if she likes it very much, she can be smart and cut off her feelings. The first sentence of this first paragraph is not as powerful as telling who it is or who it is, and pushing her heart out of two hearts that could have overlapped. Knowing the poet's temperament, we can know that she actually pushed the boat out by herself.
There are dense stars in the clear blue sky. The white horse thinks that the blue sky represents the poet's reason, and the stars are synonymous with the poet's dream. Understand the reference of these two images, and the poetry of this paragraph will be understood.
That night, your hand held mine, and the lost starry night blocked the sadness mentioned. How many times can a person hold hands in his life? Whether it is friendship, love or affection, when the road we walked hand in hand melts into memory, we always feel very warm. Holding hands is for the purity of friendship, for the romance of love, and for the intimacy of family. At that time, Lin was only fifteen or sixteen. She is in a fantasy and lonely girlhood. In a foreign country, she has the same desire for friendship as other girls of her age. And once the confession comes, I feel very sudden, scared and helpless. At that time, she didn't know what to do, so there were "confusion" and "heavy sadness" in the poem. But astute, she told her father the next day, and finally the father and the daughter made a decision described in the next poem.
That night, you and I set the direction, and each of us recognized the appearance of life. This is a kind of determination, the poet decides for himself, and another person should not be so determined. "Every one of them recognizes the emergence of life." We can all understand the meaning of this sentence, but it doesn't conform to the current sentence expression habits. In the present sentence, it should be: each of them recognizes the way they live.

The second verse of the poem begins with the word "up to now", and the language gradually eases from intense. The lyric in the middle is like the wind and rain gradually decreasing, and finally it is calm. At the end of the poem, the last sentence is "I still miss your farming on the shore: the bright colors of red flowers, yellow flowers and blossoming flowers." After reading it, the reader feels that this sentence contains the poet's youthful temperament, even though she looks at Xu Zhimo from a distance in the ocean of life, as if watching flowers from the other side. She also told the children about her admiration for Xu Zhimo. These two sentences are saying that she misses the poems written by Xu Zhimo. Farming on the Shore is a metaphor for Xu Zhimo's creative achievements in the fields of literature and poetry. Indeed, Xu Zhimo is an outstanding leader of the Crescent School, and he still has a great influence on the exploration of Lin Xin's poetry creation. "Brightness of red flowers and yellow flowers" refers to Xu Zhimo's poems.
"Up to now, my boat is still floating on the sea, and the thin mast often shakes in the wind and waves." Continuing from the last section, "My boat was pushed out of the river that night, and there were dense stars in the clear blue sky." If the first sentence of the first section plays a role in pointing out the theme, then the first sentence of the second section and the first sentence of the first section are a kind of context. The sea surface refers to the depth of life; Wind and waves refer to things that happen in life, such as the death of Lin's father after returning to China and so on. A thin mast is a metaphor for a poet's heart.
Up to now, the sun only lingers behind me, and layers of shadows stay by my side. These two sentences regard Xu Zhimo as the sun in my heart, which shows the deep worship of Xu! Shadow refers to the trivial things in life. After marriage, Lin became a housewife, took care of her children at home and helped her husband Liang Sicheng achieve his construction career outside. Although she said that her husband sang with her and loved her, she lived for a long time and had all kinds of worries.
Up to now, I still remember that night, starlight, tears and Baihe! This sentence takes care of the first section, "You and I decided the direction of that night, and each of us recognized the appearance of life." When reading those two lines, at least guess what tears are, which is the true feeling of a girl when she reluctantly gives up what she loves, and the impatience when she lets go. It just shows that the poet is a gentle woman, not as cold as ice. The white horse still remembers the singer Zheng Zhihua's words in "Light the Stars": "The sky you look up at is the man's sky. Teenagers who once dreamed under the stars don't know how high the sky is.
I don't know how far the sea is, but I swear to take you away.
To the ends of the earth. Irresponsible oath, I am young and frivolous, and only when I get lost in the dark do I find myself vulnerable. Looking at your red eyes, thinking of staying away from your home. Stars in the sky, please light a lamp of hope for me ... "This lyric is about the confusion of a teenager, and this poem is about the confusion of a girl. Which girl doesn't love spring and which teenager doesn't love spring? "The White River" is a world in which a confused girl is helpless.

On that day, I hope to climb to the top. Honey generally moistens my memory. Beneath the top floor are layers of shadows. Only by standing at the top can we get rid of the shadows around us and have memories as sweet as honey. It's a pity that Miss Lin was also guided by her father to find her husband's family, leaving her own affairs unattended. This is also a blessing in misfortune.
On that day, I will step on an arrow with wings and watch you shoot all the strings in your garden. Cupid's arrow in western mythology is a symbol of romantic and eternal love. Both the poet and Xu Zhimo are western-educated talents, so they naturally understand these meanings. The arrow with wings is rich and strange in imagination, warm and bold. This is the poet's subconscious action and initiative to the ideal of love. But in fact, the poet has not really surpassed Xu Zhimo emotionally since A Farewell to Cambridge.
On that day, you will hear a song like a bird, that is, I am waiting for your appreciation. Poets are women, and Chinese-style reserve is a natural accomplishment or habit of many traditional women. Waiting for admiration is the poet's reserve. The poet compares the song of his soul to the crisp and pleasant song of a bird. If she really sings, can Xu Zhimo not feel it? In fact, these two sentences are still the poet's fantasy and dream.
The last two sentences of the poem are very important and make people tremble: on that day, you will see messy flower shadows, which is that I broke into the border of that year without permission! The messy flower shadow is the poet's panicked deer-like heart. When Lin couldn't bear to see Xu Zhimo's broken family, he immediately decided not to get involved in the emotional world with Xu Zhimo, which was a wise and kind move of the poet. Everything is enough, and there are advances and retreats. Therefore, Linda's talented woman stood on the edge of Xu Zhimo's emotional world and stopped. This shows her wisdom. See the exclamation point at the end of the last sentence? It just shows that the poet's heart is wandering in a complicated and tangled state. These two sentences are as full of tears as the first sentence of the poem, "My boat pushed out of the river that night."

Poetry is a song of thought. If you haven't experienced a life, an experience, an emotion, the written words have no sense of flesh and blood and character. Reading Lin's poem vertically, we can really feel her painful experience, which is the writing art that this poem successfully integrates into the reader's heart.
Reading a poem is actually a process in which the reader's heart and the poet's heart communicate with each other and produce a song. If they can't * * * sound, there is no induction, then either the reader has not experienced it, or the poet has not expressed his experience well. And this song "That Night", the poet did it.
Dear poets, have you read Lin's Night? Baima thinks this poem is well written, and it is as touching as the song "You are April Day on Earth". Only one is warm and happy, and the other is sad and bitter. Welcome poets to discuss and leave a message for Baima in the comment area. In addition, Baima recorded a poem with a poet friend here, ending today's poetry appreciation.
