Recommended content:
Before reading Jin Meiling's poems, I first learned about Jin Meiling's life.
Jin Meiling is a Japanese nursery rhyme poet who was active in the 1920s. She published 90 poems before her death. At the age of 3, her father died young. Mother later remarried according to local customs. At the age of 23, she married a bookstore clerk and gave birth to a daughter, but her husband not only made love, but also forbade her to write poems. Due to an unhappy marriage, Jin Meiling committed suicide at the age of 27. His works were once forgotten by the world. Until the 1960s, Fu Jie Yasaki, a researcher in children's literature, read a poem by Jin Meiling in a collection of Japanese nursery rhymes. Deeply moved, she began to look for her own works. 1984, The Complete Works of Jin Meiling Nursery Rhymes came out in three volumes, with 5 12 poems, which immediately attracted attention. The Chinese version of Jin Meiling's poetry collection Towards the Bright Side was published by Xinxing Publishing House.
Jin Meiling has a unique life experience and sentiment. She depicts her personality consciousness with fresh words and unique way of thinking. At the same time, her poems are also the sustenance of her own feelings. Her poems have beautiful artistic conception, delicate feelings and unique imagination, and are clear and transparent with a touch of loneliness, loneliness and melancholy.
Next, I will share the contents of poetry, thoughts and feelings, and the significance of moving from the collection to the bright side of children's lives.
First, the content of the poetry collection Towards the Bright Side.
Jin Meiling's poems are very rich in content. Judging from the poems in Towards Light, her poems describe the scenery of nature and the four seasons, as well as the children's dreams and their inner world.
I will summarize the contents described in this book of poems as follows:
1, Four Seasons Scenery and Life? 2. A child's dream? 3. Spiritual world
1, describing the scenery and life of the four seasons.
Example:
The intention of this poem is blue sky, small stones, sea, stars and dandelions. ...
The style of the whole poem is fresh and lively, showing concern for the weak life. Whether it's the stars in the daytime or the scattered dandelion roots, we can't see, think of or pay attention to them. But the poet's sensitive and delicate mind is concerned about this little thing, their existence, their silence, their purity and their vitality.
Let's look at the first section first.
On a sunny summer morning, a blue morning glory and a white morning glory quietly bloom. Two common and beautiful morning glories have different orientations and colors. Who noticed them? A bee flew quietly over two small flowers, and the bright sunshine fell on them. The same bee flies over two flowers, and the feelings of the two flowers must be different, right?
Life just blooms leisurely. Time goes by, morning light goes by, morning light goes by, afternoon time goes by, and when dusk comes, the morning glory will wither.
The first section describes the blooming of life, so a beautiful day begins; In the second quarter, the flowers wither and the day ends quietly.
The language is plain and simple, revealing the poet's quiet mood. From morning till night, poetry quietly tells the story of morning glory.
This morning in summer, are there only two small morning glories blooming quietly?
No, bees, the sun, flower watchers, boys, girls and everything all started their new day at the same time. The morning glory has withered. Is it just the day of two morning glory? Bees, the sun, flower watchers, boys and girls, everything in nature, their day has quietly ended!
The last two sentences are so simple, so quiet, so quiet, so meaningful.
This poem is like a painting. This poem is like a sketch. It captures the two touching moments of flowers blooming and falling, lightly outlines the flowers blooming and falling of life between heaven and earth, and outlines the flow of time.
Step 2 describe a child's dream
Example 2: Dreams and Truth
When I was a child, I always had many dreams. Exquisite Jin Ling wrote the children's dreams in childlike poems. When children encounter psychological setbacks or problems that are difficult to solve, they will be somewhat divorced from reality and have illusions. They will put themselves in an imaginary world in an attempt to deal with setbacks in a fictional way, and their psychology will be comforted or satisfied. This fantasy has a certain soothing and therapeutic effect on the inner world.
3. Describe life stories and inner world.
Example 1:
In many poems, Jin Meiling expressed her loneliness, desolation and unaccompanied sadness. Both her childhood and her adult life are full of faint loneliness and sadness.
Second, the spirit contained in Jin Meiling's poems
1. Childlike heart, childlike interest and positive spirit are fully displayed in the poems.
Life is precious and equal, and every life has a positive spirit.
Whether it is a small leaf or a flying insect at night, whether it is a child in the country or a child in the city, they all have a bright and shining heart, which represents the active pursuit of light and beauty by all things in nature.
Example 2:
In order to see if I can fly, stretch, shake my body with a nice voice and make adults laugh.
The poem "I can't" ... I can't shake it off ... "reveals a faint helplessness, but this helplessness has turned into a rediscovery of myself. Birds and bells are created by this nature, which is completely equivalent to "I". They have their own unique places, but they are essentially the same. All things are equal, and all beings are equal.
This poem also reflects Jin Meiling's respect for life. When reading this poem, I can't help but think of a picture book story I read these days-"You are Special".
"Heaven" created a flower and a leaf in the world. Every flower and leaf has its own magic. Don't care about what you don't have, because that should be the characteristic of other life. If you look into your heart, you will find that you have something beautiful that they don't have. By reading "We are different, we are all great!"
The positive spirit, the equality of all things and the uniqueness of each individual in poetry will naturally infect children's hearts.
2. Loneliness and sadness in poetry.
What is revealed in the poem is loneliness, deep loneliness and melancholy. Childhood poets are lonely and spend their time in building blocks and small toys. The poet who carefully built the small garden was eager to share this lonely thing with his mother, but her mother was busy until the temple fair was over. Listening to the cicada singing, the helpless poet trampled on the small garden, and this deep melancholy could not be resolved. People can't help feeling, does the flattening of the small garden mean the end of the poet's life?
Continuing the melancholy tone of the last poem, this poem seems to be about breaking a cocoon into a butterfly, but in fact it reveals deep helplessness and sadness.
Silkworms can break cocoons into butterflies in narrow cocoons, but people have to grow wings in dark and lonely graves and become angels to fly.
Light language reveals profound suffering and boundless melancholy. This poem can be regarded as the swan song of life, which makes people feel the loneliness and desolation of life.
3. Observe the world from the perspective of another thing and express a hidden worry.
Grass, blue sky, flowers, small creatures and other natural things are all the objects of Jin Meiling's chanting. These scenery that people turn a blind eye to will glow with unusual light in her eyes and be endowed with the connotation of connecting with people's hearts. The "dew" in the poem refers to the tears of flowers with dew, which give life to flowers, bees and others, and the tears of flowers flow for the sake of it. Who can understand this silent moment, probably only the same pure and sensitive heart can perceive it.
On the surface, it describes the flowers that wither at night, but in fact, it describes how many lonely nights there are in my short life, with no one to accompany and no one to understand.
The fallen flowers in the morning light are accompanied by birds, and the fallen flowers in the evening wind have night bells to sing for them. Although these flowers have withered, they are not lonely. But who will accompany the flowers that fall at night? Who will accompany the flowers that fall at night? This kind of repeated helpless singing reveals the sense of withering and loneliness in the poet's life.
4. Express a kind of relative happiness and beauty through poetry, reflecting that life is always mixed.
Look at the poem "Falling Flowers Come at Night"
When the flowers bloom, they will fall.
Through Jin Meiling's Petunia and Orange Blossom, we all feel the beauty of flowers and fragrance. In this poem, the poet turned to the withered flowers, and we will follow this poem to the time and space that once touched the poet's heart.
This poem has three parts, describing the death of flowers in three different periods.
The withered flower in the morning light is not lonely, because there are sparrows flying with it. I think it's not just sparrows? There should be other birds and insects flying in Ye Er. Flowers that wither in the evening breeze are not lonely, because there are night bells singing for them. I think it's not just the song of the late bell? There will also be songs of birds, songs of the wind and songs of trees.
As a flower, the fate of falling is so different. Night came, deep and silent, and everything in nature fell asleep. Only the flower soul withered in the dark, who noticed?
The author used a repetitive technique here: "Who will accompany the flowers that fall at night?" Ask ask, let us feel that the poet's sensitive heart has deep sympathy for the fallen flowers at night. At the same time, it also implies the poet's call to the world for the flowers that fall at night-"Flowers that fall at night, please come with her!" Flowers that fall at night, please follow them! "The loneliness and weakness of that life, the sadness of passing away, are all expressed sadly through the last paragraph.
This poem clearly describes the decline of life and implies the beauty of life.
Without the precious beauty of life, how can there be natural things singing and dancing with them when it falls?
Without the beauty of flowers, how can the lonely life in the dark night make the poet feel so pity?
But the better, the sadder.
Life withers in silence in the night. This feeling of pain and helplessness makes people feel depressed and sad.
The same life situation triggered the poet's strong singing psychology, so the flowers withered at night became a short and lonely portrayal of the poet's life, and also a sad song of her own life and the weak life under the same situation.
But this kind of grief also contains a kind of awakening power, and the last paragraph of the poem is also calling on nature and the world to accompany dying life with love and compassion. Jin Meiling's sympathy for the little life also deeply touched me.
Another example is me and birds and bells.
This poem also reveals a major feature of nursery rhymes-the carefree and naive world, which is always relative, and everything has its inevitable unsatisfactory side, which makes those simple and beautiful things more precious.
Whether it is a bird or a bell, it is the favor of the creator, just as important as "I"
Birds have more wings to fly than I do. I can't fly like a bird, but birds can't run fast on the ground like me. Bells can make a nice sound, but I can't make a bell-like sound when I shake my body, but bells can't sing many songs like me. Creator endows everything with different characteristics. Although different life shows different abilities, different life has the same ordinary and magic.
Jin Meiling's life is very poor, but she is a real spiritual aristocrat. Her poems are fresh, beautiful, delicate and natural, and sing her own moving voice to the world and everything. She observes the world with a pure heart and shows compassion for all beings.
3. The significance of Jin Meiling's Towards the Light to children.
Ma Ling wrote in the early childhood reading class:
Therefore, it is suggested that parents and teachers can lead their children to read the nursery rhymes of the golden bell jar and feel the beauty and purity of the poems of the golden bell jar when they are in the second and third grades.
Jin Meiling nursery rhymes are rich in content, beautiful in form and rhyme, and have unique childlike interest. Therefore, Jin Meiling's nursery rhymes not only provide a good model for children to learn and develop language, but also enrich their hearts and emotions with their understanding of poetry in the process of learning and reading poetry.
Under the influence of these poems, children will gradually have a pair of eyes to discover beauty, a heart to perceive beauty and a passion to create beauty.
In short, reading the poem "The Golden Bell Hood" in the morning has many influences on children's lives: it can inspire children to observe nature, get close to nature and listen to the sounds of nature through poetry, and at the same time open up their inner imagination and creativity. Children read the nursery rhymes of The Golden Bell Hood and naturally learned excellent language examples. Start the dawn with poetry one by one, and the child's spirit is stretched and enriched because of poetry.
