Excerpts from Private Tree.
Thousands of trees are in bloom. In winter in the north, snowflakes are fluttering. Domestic birds chase each other and play on bright plum branches. In winter in the south, it is drizzling, and birds are blocking the swing in the green garden. When I was young, I was one of thousands of seeds in Qian Qian, perhaps a maple, a banyan, or an acacia, and fell asleep silently in the slightly warm winter in the south.
Appreciate:
1, Duan Wen describes the different climate characteristics in winter in the north and south, and the deep sleep of a seed in the warm winter in the south.
2. It expresses the sleeping state of a seed in the winter in the south. The author doesn't know what kind of tree this seed will grow into in the future, which may be maple, banyan or acacia.
Second, from the Tree of Life.
When you were young, you were like a weak little tree, sticking out small branches and buds, enjoying the sunshine and sucking the rain and dew, growing up one day and finally growing into a towering tree. At this time, you have lush foliage and developed roots, and you no longer need the care of your parents. You have propped up a sky and opened up a fertile soil by yourself, but at this time, your parents are old, wrinkles have climbed on their faces, and your thin body can no longer support a heavy life.
Appreciate:
1, this passage means that the author was like a weak little tree when he was a child, constantly absorbing sunshine and rain and dew during his growth, and finally growing into a towering tree. This expresses the significance of constantly striving to become stronger on the road of growth.
2. This passage describes that when you grow up, "you" becomes flourishing, strong and rooted, opening up your own living space and no longer needing the care of your parents. However, it also shows that your parents are getting older and weaker, and they can't bear the burden of life. This contrast image depicts the changes in life stages and the importance of parents' filial piety.
3. Poetry excerpts from flowering trees.
In June, that was the first time I saw you again. You waited for a long time in this yard near the river bank. That is a flowering tree. I met you along the way. Maybe I have never seen you before, but I feel familiar with you. I really can't remember this life or last life. The first time I saw you.
Appreciate:
1. This passage describes that the author saw a flowering tree for the first time in June. The author thinks this tree is familiar, but he can't remember whether he saw it in this life or in his last life.
This vague feeling expresses the confusion of time and memory and creates a mysterious and romantic atmosphere.
