From the Song Dynasty poetess Li Qingzhao's "Residual Flowers".
The whole poem is: flowers bloom without regrets, and fate is like water. Flowers wither for flowers and flowers fly for flowers. Flower sorrow is flower tears, and flower tears are broken. Flowers dance, flowers cry, flowers cry, petals fly. Flowers bloom for whom to thank, and flowers fall for whom to grieve.
Whether the flowers bloom or fall, the flowers have no regrets. Fate comes and goes like running water. Flowers fade and bloom, but I am sad because the petals fly away. Tears for the sadness of flowers, heartbreak for the tears of flowers. Flowers are dancing, like flowers crying, flowers crying, like petals dancing. After the flowers bloom, they wither for whom, and the flowers wither for whom.
Residual flower is one of Li Qingzhao's few words. As the name implies, it is a poem told by things. That is, I use the residual flowers as a metaphor to summarize my sad life. Flowers bloom and fall, which is actually a self-portrait of Li Qingzhao's life. Li Qingzhao took "Flowers Bloom" as the creative object, and expressed her helplessness and sadness about life through flowers. There are 17 "flowers" in the whole poem. Li Qingzhao showed her young and wandering life by describing the scene of flowers blooming and falling. Through the description of flower opening, falling, withering, flower flying, flower sadness, flower tears, flower broken, flower dancing, flower crying and petal flying, the author metaphorically describes the process of a flower from budding to blooming, blooming, dancing with the wind, to withering, petal flying and finally breaking. The author is sad for flowers, crying for flowers and crying for flowers, which shows her sentimental character and is full of strong sadness.
