Similarities and differences between homesickness and I love this land

They all reflect the poet's deep love for the motherland.

I love this land is a modern poem written by the modern poet Ai Qing at 1938. This poem begins with "if" and uses "hoarseness" to describe the singing voice of birds, and then continues to write the singing content, from singing before death to writing that birds return to the world after death, and finally replaces the image of birds with the poet's own image, which directly expresses the poet's sincere and ardent patriotism.

Homesickness is a modern poem written by modern poet Yu Guangzhong in 1972. Through the time series of "when I was a child", "when I grew up", "later" and "now", the poem concretizes the abstract homesickness with stamps, boat tickets, graves and straits, summarizes the poet's long life course and endless homesickness for the motherland, and reveals the poet's profound sense of history.

Extended data

The poem "I love this land" begins with "if", which is abrupt, novel and deeply thoughtful. The "bird" in the poem is a general term, and it is a * * * name. It is different from the cuckoo and partridge repeatedly sung by poets in past dynasties, and has a natural and special charm and significance, but it is entirely up to the author to pursue new art without relying on it.

Moreover, the "hoarse throat" in the poem is quite different from the oriole, weeping cuckoo and soaring egret in the classical poetry. It is purely due to the influence of the tragic atmosphere in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is also the affectionate expression of the special temperament and personality of this "sad poet" (the author claims to be).

The first sentence of this poem shows the author's sincere love for the land. In order to express his sincere and deep love for the land, the author imagines himself as a "bird", flying tirelessly all over the motherland forever.

The whole poem presents a kind of "melancholy" emotional feature, which is a natural expression of deep love for the troubled motherland. It stems from the suffering of the nation, so it is particularly touching.
