Some people say that the willow in summer can't catch up with the willow in spring, because the willow in spring is fresh and flexible. Whether it is the smoke willow in early spring, the velvet willow color cut by scissors in February spring breeze, or the willow flower with stretched leaves in March, it has been sung for thousands of years.
And in summer, about the sudden decrease of willows, is it that the willows in summer are not important and beautiful?
Actually, it is not. It is because in summer, the willow has returned to its most practical function. Compared with these practical heavy and universal, those poems describing the fresh color of willow are pale and powerless.
People tend to have a silent gratitude for things that are often used to feel intimate.
Because the beauty at this time can no longer cover the willow tree. Therefore, relatively speaking, there are few poems devoted to Xia Liu, but it is not without them.
Tao Yuanming seldom writes poems about willows. But he loves not only chrysanthemums, but also willows. Because he calls himself "Mr. Wuliu" and talks about his life ambition with Biography of Mr. Wuliu, he said at the beginning that five willows were planted next to his house. If chrysanthemum is Tao Yuanming's favorite with objective aesthetics, then willow is Tao Yuanming himself.
The reason why Tao Yuanming is called "Mr. Wuliu" is definitely not because of the beautiful appearance of Chunliu, but because the shelter from the wind and rain has propped up his home and his life.
In ancient rural areas, willow, elm and mulberry were juxtaposed. Elms provide tough wood for furniture, vehicles, farm tools, appliances, bridges and buildings. Willow provides fast-growing small wood for all kinds of cabin support, rattan basket weaving and charcoal fire raw materials. In actual daily life, willow is used more than elm. For example, if you wear fish in summer, you can directly break the willow into ropes and cut trees up the mountain. Wicker can be used as a binding tool.
For the willow in summer, it is difficult for you to clarify its practicality and beauty in a few poems.
Tao Yuanming only sighed, "There are willows in front of the secret hall." That's his low profile.
"Elm leaves grow behind you, and cicadas sing at dusk.
Once you get back to Taoyuan Road, it's hard to find it after you leave. "From the late sui dynasty to the early tang dynasty? Chen Ziliang, "buy wine in the political world on a summer night? "excerpt
Summer dusk, go to the countryside to drink.
The willow at this time is part of the pastoral scenery, because during your stay, you are walking under the shade of elm willow. The sun slowly sets from the dense branches and leaves of elm trees, and the golden light is fragmentary, and cicadas are singing on the tall willow trees.
Under the tree in the yard, my friend set the farm drinks. Two people talk while drinking, shaking their fans, talking about Sang Ma and peace. Occasionally, the hostess comes to serve food, the children are laughing and the dogs are barking.
This is the rural beauty in harmony. It is difficult to describe such an overall atmosphere by chanting willow trees alone.
So the poet, with a very comprehensive feeling, this is the beauty in the Peach Blossom Garden.
I'm in it, so it's hard to write about the tranquility of a summer night in the country. If I leave here, I'm afraid it's hard to have such an opportunity and the pleasure of raising a glass in the countryside in the future.
The so-called experience, really can only experience, experience the high willows, the bright moon and the blue sky in the countryside, experience the children's laughter, and the wheat fragrance floating in the air. The greatest extreme of beauty is happiness, and happiness can no longer be concealed by beauty.
How to describe the vivid beauty of countryside with willows, elms, tranquility and fireworks?
"The roots are elegant and the shadows are shallow.
Sleeping face is cold and stretching is softer.
The empty column is heavy and the water is scattered.
Like a drunken scene, like a moon dew.
A long fish is surprised by mistake, but a weak bird is surprised.
Don't be sentimental, including spring climbing. "Don? Zhang's Willow by the Water in May? 》
Finally, a poet in the Tang Dynasty wrote a willow tree in midsummer and May. Sure enough, the intensive description has represented the extreme he can express.
May willow rooted at the water's edge stands upright angrily. Hanging wicker covered the shallow water.
Wicker seems to be a sleeping face, and wicker is like hair, hanging down on the face and not waking up.
Willow in the sun during the day, the wind blowing wicker, as if the waist is lazy and soft.
There are many branches and leaves of willow trees in midsummer, even if they sway, they are a little heavy. Only when the long brush is on the water, you will feel the lovely swaying lightness.
Willow stood by the water, with long hair fluttering, as if drunk. Although the ancients had long hair, they all rolled it up to make a bun and untied it only in private space or before going to bed. There is also a kind of relaxation and freedom that everyone can experience after drinking and reveling. And the willow has this half-drunk posture. I suddenly understood why Tao Yuanming loves Liu, not only because of its practicality, but also because of its unruly and naive.
Willow stood by the water, hanging its head, dew condensed on the willow leaves, and moonlight hit the willow branches, which made people feel homesick and sad.
The Book of Songs says that in the past, I was not there, Liu Yiyi. That's the feeling of wandering, but if you wait at home, the summer willows are heavy and the night is quiet, that's the heart of your loved ones.
The long wicker hangs down, and even the fish suspect that it is a long fishing line and hook. Flexible wicker perches on the oriole cuckoo, and the trampling of birds makes the willow trees windless.
The willows by the water in May still contain touching spring scenery, moving the parting heart in climbing.
This is the most beautiful summer willow poem I have ever seen, but does it describe the beauty of summer willow? Definitely not.
Because the willow looks heavy and sad, in fact, it is tough. It supports the boat and ties the horse to provide shade, and uses huge roots to consolidate the soil and protect the bank, so that there are fragrant grass under the tree, beautiful lotus flowers in the lake and swimming fish on the shore.
"The basket is cold, and the chimney is afraid of being hot and lazy to burn incense.
Rain touches willow leaves like weeping eyes, dew like sweat makeup. "Early tang dynasty? Cai Gui's summer has always been in my heart? cite
Willow trees were greener in the rain that summer.
The summer rain in the yard bathes the willow leaves, but the indoor heat wave is obviously transpiration.
So the woman can only open the window and lie on the straw mat to cool off.
Ancient buildings are made of bamboo and wood, which is natural, but easy to get wet. In order to prevent the humidity in rainy season, the fragrant wood is burned indoors with a smoke stove to keep the room dry. Including smoking and drying clothes to prevent mildew.
I didn't know that before. Isn't it hot to light a charcoal fire indoors in summer?
This poem provides the most exact answer. It must be heat, but the lesser of the two evils. Are you watching the valuable clothes in the room get moldy and even disgusting under your eyes, or are you enduring the high temperature and dryness caused by a little charcoal fire?
But obviously, this woman is already in a bad mood, too lazy to pick up these details, and because it is too hot indoors.
She lay on the bamboo mat and looked at the rain outside the window.
In summer, the willow leaves are greener and slimmer, which really looks like the slender eyes and faces of the orientals.
Rain falls from willow leaves. Whose tears are those?
She can imagine that the lotus in the yard condenses into fine rain beads in the rain, but there is a very vivid sentence here, which says that the lotus is sweating like a beauty in summer, and the pink face is covered with fine sweat.
I admire this poet very much, describing the woman's hot summer, her husband's absence, a person's hard work and fatigue, her body sweating, and her inner thunder.
The rain touches the willow leaves like weeping eyes. Have you ever cried in the summer rain? Tears in irritability? There is no word easy in adult life, and the burden of adult women's life is heavier. A woman in the Tang Dynasty whose husband is not around, in such a hot summer, the rain is like tears and sweat. In her lonely youth, she is agitated and sad.
Who can dry the tears in her eyes and the sweat on her forehead? Her husband is not here now.
"The morning is full of forest light, and I still see plum branches yellow.
A pair of cicadas are lovers, and the willow shakes with them. "Southern Song Dynasty? Chen Mi, "Is it sunny after the rain in late May? 》
This is a beautiful poem of pastoral scenery in the midsummer of Song Dynasty.
In the fifth month of the lunar calendar, it often enters the rainy season of 20 to 40 days, which may be sunny in the middle and hot after a rain. So even in the rainy season, the temperature will rise rapidly in sunny days, and cicadas can be heard from summer to sun in May. When the temperature is above 22 degrees, cicadas often ring.
It is sunny after the rain, and you can see the summer sun. In the morning, the Woods are covered with different sunshine from last night. Plum rain is plum yellow rain, but the rain in late May can be described as plum rain. Because most plums have been picked, or left on the branches, waiting for natural maturity and falling, increasing the nutritional fertility of the land.
But in the morning in Chu Qing after the rain, there is always a relatively cool beauty. But this time won't last long, because the temperature will soar rapidly.
Sure enough, a pair of cicadas began to ring, echoing each other, and kept singing because of the rising temperature.
Accompanied by this cicada, it is a long willow swaying in summer. A few days ago, the continuous rainy days, the willow is longer, the willow leaves are greener, and the cicada singing constitutes the symbolic pastoral scenery in summer.
Cicadas like to live in trees that suck the branches and leaves of trees easily, so willow is an important habitat choice tree for cicadas, which means cicadas and willows are often connected. Because willow grows fast near water and its branches are flexible, it is suitable for the growth and development of cicadas.
Xia Chan and Xia Liu were basically the standards for writing cicadas in ancient times.
In ancient Chinese, cicada means long life and cheerful cry, and willow silk also means long life.
This poem praises the long-term prosperity of the countryside and the joy of the people.
In fact, the sound of cicadas is summer noise to many people.
It's just that the ancients can't avoid these things, so they have to get along with each other adaptively, just like staying away from the heat.
The aesthetics of catkin and cicada singing is actually a respect and compromise to nature.
"It rains in May, and the willow green is uneven.
As the sun sets, the summer heat is like water, and the hand blows the clouds under the phoenix pool. "Yuan? Matsu long, "it's raining? 》
Are willows beautiful in summer? It is a kind of mature green. As a row of willows, they stand on the bank of the street, and the willows washed by rain have a clean beauty like Lv Yun.
Because willows grow in layers, tall willows form layered beauty like mountains. A willow tree is a high and low mountain and a row of willows. Is a continuous Qian Shan Wanliu, which can be described as green mountains and green waters.
After a rain, the air is cool, although it is hot in summer, at dusk, the wind blowing from the sky is also comfortable, warm but not hot and cool.
The wind must have come down from the Phoenix Pool in the sky, blowing countless willows and swaying gently.
The weeping willows after the rain this summer are more like grown-up beauties, with long hair Lv Yun.
"In autumn and May in Dongting, Hunan, Liu Shen is a guest boat.
There is no Zhai in Yaoyi County, and Yueyang Tower is diligent in poetry. ? "Yuan? Fu Ruojin's "Pu Shan Yuan Dao"
It is precisely because there are many willows beside the water that the willows in summer are lush and drooping. The most beautiful and practical one is the Yang Liuan, a moored ship.
Because willows provide huge three-dimensional shade. Other trees may shield you from the sun overhead, but wicker is like a curtain. If you park the boat under the weeping willows, even the curtains will be saved, because hanging branches can keep out the sunset.
Some people say that the most beautiful thing in summer is to stop in the lotus bushes, but the most practical thing is not the lotus swinging, but Yang Liuan.
Because there is enough space in the three-dimensional shade to make you white, bare and independent.
In the shade of summer, there is water in my eyes, but my body is as cool as autumn.
You see the poet in such a comfortable environment, glowing, remembering that he had sat in the office several times and thinking of Yueyang Tower. At this time, he was parked by Dongting Lake, and his dream came true. This kind of liberation and happiness means that he will go ashore immediately and go to the place he dreams of.
Lakes and mountains, overlooking tall buildings, are the fastest beauty in midsummer.
Such a smooth mood also benefits from the lush summer willows beside Dongting Lake. If there are no willows here, I'm afraid what he wants most is to jump into the lake and be a fish that doesn't land, in midsummer.
Xia Liu's ancient poems are few, but they leave more space for modern people.
Nowadays, it is common for people to travel. Write down the summer willows you see and like.
The first coat is better than snow to explain the love and beauty in the poem for you. .
