Life is a river that originates from a distant mountain. It flows through countless different rural areas and mountains. It flows endlessly along the way it should go until it joins the sea. Every landscape that the stream of life passes through is a life.
The stream of life has existed since ancient times and will continue to exist in the future. In different landscapes, you may be a tree, a bird, a monk, a beggar, or a butterfly like Zhuangzi.
Now you are you. When you die, the flow of life will not stop. It will exist in different forms. You are just a landscape on the way through the stream of life.
Many people will disagree with this view. They will ask, if I used to be a bird, why can't I remember which tree I rested on?
However, even in this life, how many trees can you remember when you pass by?
The person who wakes up in the morning is the most naive person of the day. The unhappiness and troubles that follow will push people's innocence away from his mind bit by bit, so that he can't remember a bunch of wild flowers passing by, the friendly greetings from colleagues, or even what his wife carefully prepared for him.
We have been trying to forget unpleasant and painful things and remember happy and meaningful things all our lives. Over time, even those things that we think are very important and happy are gradually forgotten. If you used to be a bird, how can you remember the buttonwood you once fell?
Why do old people, old people can clearly remember the songs they sang when they were young? Remember the story grandma once told when I was a child? Remember the first love letter you received when you were a child? Some old people even claim to remember who they are and what they did in their last lives.
Zen once said: Let go of all your troubles and you can see your past life. Can you, like an old man, let go of everything and just look back in the afternoon sun? Besides, the old people also have their troubles, and not all the old people can reach the realm of Zen.
Don't you still have dreams?
Dreams have no time limit. In just a few minutes, dreams can take you through generations. The content of dreams can be past lives, present lives and future. Don't be afraid of nightmares, it's just another form of life, learn to face it squarely; Don't indulge in a beautiful dream, it may never come true. Learn to be happy because you are happy, but don't take it seriously.
It's just that dreams are too easy to forget
Life is so profound, don't try to prove or demonstrate anything. How can you prove or demonstrate what you can't understand? Who knows if you really just live in the dream of the future?
So accept her, with infinite gratitude, and accept the scenery that the stream of life gives you. Enjoy the ups and downs it gives you, and let you have a good aftertaste when you get old in the sunset.

2. Appreciation of fog
The beginning of the poem says "I like fog", which presents readers with strong subjective feelings and shows the author's love for nature.
So, why does the author like fog? What aspects of fog are worth liking? There are roughly four aspects:
First, it is the hazy beauty of fog. The author praises fog as a symbolic poet's brushwork, that is, poems written by symbolic poets can give people a hazy beauty of "looking at the moon from the curtain and flowers from the water". The author also uses "someone said" and quotes the first sentence of the poem "Walking on Shakespeare" by Qin Guan, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, "The fog is lost, but the moon is lost" to vividly write the scenery under the fog: the whole world has become a white room. This is both a metaphor and a realism, which shows that the fog is thick and heavy, and the image is vivid and popular. Quoting the sentences in Qin Guan's ci adds elegance to the popular image and makes modern poetry melt into the beauty of simplicity.
The second is the gentle beauty of fog. The author quotes Carl Sandberg, an American poet, as saying, "The fog is coming and attaching to the kitten's feet." And said, "What better way to show light and soft fog than a cat's foot?" The image of cat's feet is novel and strange. Fog has nothing to do with cat's feet, but the movements of cat's feet are soft and silent. Attach the fog to the cat's feet to make the softness of the fog visible. The author uses the novelty of carl sandburg's poetic image to construct the novelty of this poetic image. It can be said that there are poems in the poem, which makes people daydream infinitely. The creative technique is also extremely ingenious and natural.
Third, it is the implicit beauty of fog. Fog hides the magnificent world. We wander in the fog and look at the world in the fog, just like reading a poem with lofty artistic conception and profound meaning. Its beauty lies in that it can only be understood, but it is difficult to express. This is the state where the author devoted himself wholeheartedly to the fog scene and devoted himself to "forgetting me". Especially when you walk step by step in the fog, through a thick fog, and suddenly hear the familiar river flowing, that kind of joy is really beyond your experience when the sun is shining. "The river you are familiar with" refers to the "river" where you often wander now, or is it an association that reminds you of the river in your hometown and the river where you played as a child? It should be said that it is the latter, otherwise, it is not enough for the implicit beauty of "words can only be understood". There may be faint homesickness, or there may be distant childhood fun. Judging from the writing technique, the first two films are hazy, soft, quiet and silent. This part is about the sound-the sudden "gurgling water ring" has the effect of "Tonamiyama is more secluded", which highlights the hazy beauty and softness of the fog.
The last reason why the author likes fog is that it clears up when it rains. "After the fog is slightly cloudy, you will definitely see more beautiful sunshine." This is not only to open up a new realm in poetry, but also to express one's wishes, which contains very profound ideological implications and is thought-provoking.
Zhang Mo, a famous poet and critic in Taiwan Province Province, commented on Zhang Xiuya's poems in this way: "Her poems are kind, simple and elegant, which makes people feel as if they are spinning on the keys of time." So is Zhang Xiuya's prose poems.
3. Appreciation of Dreamcatcher
When reading poetry, we should grasp the poet's artistic conception: the modern people's idea of "seeking dreams" is embedded in a folk story of "seeking gold shells", which is a combination of emptiness and reality. -Read the whole poem carefully and realize how the poet transforms his artistic conception into external formal features: combining the exaggeration and repetition of folk songs with the modern symbolic techniques of vague images; With the friendly tone of daily spoken language, the complex and subtle feelings of modern people are implicitly expressed. Then, recite the whole poem over and over again, and appreciate the poetic meaning flowing in it: both clear (showing the persistence of pursuing the ideal) and confused and sad (showing the fatigue and aging in the pursuit).
The artistic conception of this poem is characterized by putting the modern people's idea of "seeking dreams" into a folk story of "seeking golden shells" and skillfully interweaving one void with another.
The Dreamcatcher is a vivid portrayal of the poet's inner world and a profound confession of a group spirit and soul. It sings a wonderful song of the dreamer's soul with beautiful symbolic images. This beautiful song tells the true meaning of life: the realization of any beautiful ideal and the success of any cause must pay the hard price that people pursue all their lives; When your dream "blooms beautiful flowers", it is "when you are old".
The poet Dai Wangshu used symbolism to express his understanding of the true meaning of life. The symbolic noumenon in the poem is the poet himself, and the symbolic carrier is the "peach beads" spit out by the "golden shell". The poet found the symbol of this ideal, and all the beautiful things that life pursues are embodied in this ideal.
This poem has a lyrical connotation. The beginning and the end are not only a circular structure, but also the expansion of emotions to a higher level. The focus of the poem is the mental journey of searching for "priceless treasure", from the position of the golden shell to the hardships of meeting the golden shell, from praising the richness and value of the golden shell to the hardships of the peach pearl, and finally writing the happiness and happiness of life after obtaining priceless treasure. The carrier of symbol and the noumenon of symbol are intertwined, and the poet's feelings are also ups and downs. Among them, the flowing poetry and artistic conception are clear. It has shown certain modernist characteristics.
The Dreamcatcher is very ethnic. The poet chose "golden shell" and "peach pearl" as the carriers of the ideal symbol of life, which was deeply inspired by the image of traditional poetry. A series of images, such as the sea, golden shells, pearls, icebergs, dry sea, seawater, Tianshui, and even the number "nine years" itself, are all familiar in classical poetry and are also in line with the psychological accumulation of national aesthetics. Poets use "cyan", "gold" and "peach" to describe the depth of life (the sea) and realize the beauty of ideals and values, which easily resonates with national psychology. There are three lines in each section, and the rhythm is generally arranged in order. One or two sentences are repeated or arranged in each section. Aab rhymes are generally used in the three lines, and even most sentences are repeated. Reading it, not only has the aesthetic effect of images coming in droves, but also has the satisfaction of a harmonious and pleasant auditory realm. From the creation of emotion and realm, spirit and form of poetry, it makes perfect sense that Dream Chaser is a typical modern oriental symbolic poem that has got rid of the shadow of western symbolic poetry.
4. Appreciation after power failure
The language of this poem is simple, colloquial, fluent, steady and true. Among them, the sun, electric lights, candles, darkness, wind and other images all symbolize a certain meaning and are related. This understanding is the perception of them. If we understand it in the context of the times, we will find that it hides needles in cotton, which has profound implications. Anger at the "Cultural Revolution", thinking about political movements, yearning for a better and normal life, the final outcome of the "Cultural Revolution", and the harm and cost caused by one's firm stance. By this time, I have finished my feelings.
Perception and feeling are interrelated and intertwined. Sometimes, feelings will, in turn, prompt people to re-perceive and produce new feelings.
5. Rondo appreciation.
Rondo, beautiful dance. The author Paul Foer skillfully uses it to imply the ideal future of people living in peace, helping each other and loving each other.
In the first verse of the poem, the author writes: If girls all over the world are willing to join hands, they can dance a whirling dance around the sea. Imagine how wonderful it would be for girls from all over the world to dance the vortex together! Their skirts are spinning with the dancing steps, holding hands and smiling, dancing by the sea, but unfortunately they can't see the other side of the sea.
Similarly, imagine that in the second verse of the poem, boys connect boats into a bridge, and then connect their strong hands with the other. This is an indestructible bridge.
At this time, as the poem says, then people can dance around the world. Men, women and children are jumping happily. People live in harmony, help each other and love each other. But in the last section, the author puts "if" behind, which not only reveals that this is not reality, but an ideal, appeals to people to live in peace and end the war, and emphasizes the importance of peace to mankind.
Appreciation of What Can We Drop
This poem is the second of the sonnets. For the convenience of narration, a title has been added. In this poem, the poet regards death as the glorious end of life. The collision between finite and infinite, death and rebirth, "falling off" and eternity forms the tension of poetry. In the endless secret cycle of nature like a cicada and a moth, the poet found the poetry of "relaxing the tree" beyond limitation, death and life. This is a comprehensive understanding of human death and a statement of the real existence of human beings. Perhaps the best choice of poetic style to convey this kind of poetry is sonnet. The connotation of the cycle of secret realm is wonderfully integrated with the poetic styles that come and go. The poet calmly wrote the ultimate concern for life in a rigorous form. At the same time, we also saw the wonderful fusion of Chinese and western poetry.
7. Brand appreciation
Critics must follow the work and don't use their own prejudice to stop it. Criticism is not a slap in the face. I know this, but I can't do it. I have some prejudice, which is one of them; I was too impatient to read my throat carefully. It was two. Both. Don't say anything critical. Offending people is a trivial matter, even if it is unfair, I'm sorry. Silence, but also at ease.
I've heard a lot of Tang Ke's poems. Today I have to read his Brand and make an exception. Why make an exception? I have my own reasons, so I won't tell you.
Brand has more than twenty short poems, all of which are full of energy, like "a croton bug that chews bitter juice for a living". I hope he can give me some changes, but since he is willing to work hard, there is nothing anyone can do; Besides, what a strength! Not taking things, I love it; This strength is not sour, I hate sour goods; Don't eat jiaozi, just drink vinegar, it's boring! If I can control my life, I don't want it to be smelly and long, like Ms. Pan Jinlian's foot binding; I'd rather be smelly and hard. Does Kejia stink? I don't know. He works really hard, very hard. Naturally, there are some individualistic stones hidden in this hardness. "I will bear everything" is the heroism and rigidity in romanticism. However, this is not his personal praise, nor is it a sign that everyone is soft and dominant. His world is bitter, everyone is bitter, life is life, in fact, everyone is there. What was the result of the collision? The gram family didn't say. He can't dream. He strode forward with his eyes wide open; What if you don't? Think about it, life is not a long-term burden when the world is extremely peaceful and sober. Probably hard work should never be lost, but it will change to different degrees with different material conditions. The Kejia family decided their attitude towards the present world and life, but they wanted to work in this black circle. He didn't say anything else, so don't ask if it is the best. The oriole is not a thrush; The duck was carried up the tree.
Really, his poems are really only so energetic. Even sacrificed some formal beauty to sing this. His sentences are excellent and extremely bad. He doesn't care to connect his thoughts and feelings into a living picture that can breathe. He also works hard in writing. The picture of Fisherman is not bad, and Lunch Break is better, but Refugee is so stupid and empty. Or "hope" and "life" are better, because these two points are basically about his attitude and don't need any modification; There are some metaphors in it, not very clever. As for sentences, it doesn't matter if they are uneven in length; His rhyme is too reluctant. These nitpicking are easy, so they are of little value; If he is not proud, he will correct these small mistakes.
The most lovely thing is that some words are said directly-although not all. It is hard to find this kind of power in old poems. If most of the old poems are tasteless, then the Ke family has words but lacks flavor. The taste is not hard to find, just sing more. Maybe he means speechless. Didn't you see that A Moon is also wordless?
