1, Rain Lane. "Rain Lane" is the foundation and provides the environment. Rain lane consists of two words: rain and lane. Rain makes people feel confused, wet and cold. The alley pointed out a dark, narrow and long environment.
This gloomy scene of the narrow and lonely "rain lane" in the south of the Yangtze River during the rainy season is a portrayal of the dark and gloomy social reality at that time. "Rain Lane" is a kind of artistic conception, which is conducive to the author's lyricism.
2. Oil-paper umbrella. Time is in late spring, under the lonely rain, there is a dreamy umbrella artistic conception, which adds a desolate and sad atmosphere. The oil-paper umbrella itself has the characteristics of retro, nostalgic and ethereal. Coupled with the deep, quiet and hazy alleys, it gives readers room for imagination.
3. Lyric hero "I": loneliness, indifference, sadness, hope, and infinite melancholy and confusion.
4. "Lilac". Lilac, which blooms in late spring, has lilac or white flowers and a faint fragrance. In China's classical poems, cloves symbolize beauty, nobility, sadness and resentment. It can be seen that clove is a "sad product" in classical literature and a symbol of weakness and sadness.
The extended material "Rain Lane" describes the lyric hero "holding an oil-paper umbrella" and wandering alone in a long and lonely rain lane. He has a faint hope that he will meet "a girl with a lilac-like sad knot" The girl has a lilac color and fragrance, but her heart is full of sadness and sadness.
He met such a girl, but it was fleeting, "like a dream". Her color, fragrance, "sighing eyes" and "lilac-like melancholy" all disappeared in "Elegy of Rain". He still "walked with an oil-paper umbrella" and wandered alone in the long and lonely rain lane, still hopeful, hoping to float across "a girl with lilac-like sadness"
In Rain Lane, the poet used symbolic images and image group to construct lyrical space, conveyed inner feelings, and integrated the artistic nutrition of China's ancient poems, especially the graceful poems in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. Besides, the artistic success of this poem lies in its harmonious musical beauty.
This poem is both true and illusory, which makes people stunned. "I" seems to be full of worries and infinite worries, but I don't want to make it clear or say it. "I" seems to be looking forward to something and pursuing something, but the goal of looking forward to and pursuing seems so distant and slim.
"She" appeared, maybe it was an illusion, or it could be true, but "she" appeared so quickly and passed away so quickly, flashed by and disappeared in front of her eyes, "as sad and confused as a dream". "I" only feel sorry for myself and feel sorry for myself.
The "girl" in the poem can be regarded as a real reference, a beautiful, noble and melancholy girl that the poet has been waiting for for a long time. But this "girl" can also be regarded as a hazy ideal and pursuit in the poet's heart, which represents the poet's bleak vision for the future when his life is depressed.
