What poems did He Zhangzhi write?

He (659-744), a native of Xiaoshan, Zhejiang, was a poet in the Tang Dynasty. Known for quatrains, his style is fresh and unique, and his representative works include Singing Willow and Returning Home. He's four most famous Tang poems, each with only four sentences, are worth remembering.

First, "Liu Yong"

Jasper dressed as a tree, hanging down ten thousand green silk tapestries.

I don't know who cut the thin leaves, but the spring breeze in February is like scissors.

I don't know who cut the delicate willow tree, but it was cut like scissors by the spring breeze in February.

Second, "Hometown Book"

I have been away from my hometown for many years, and I have been half-dead recently.

Only in front of Jinghu Lake, the spring breeze does not change the waves of the past.

These two sentences are sighs. However, the poet did not directly say that everything he saw when he was young was gone, but compared this meaning by emphasizing the unique "mirror lake in front of the door" and "spring breeze" and the "old waves" still rippling under the spring breeze, thus showing his sadness and nostalgia.

Third, "Two Homecoming Couplets, Part I"

Young people leave home, old people return, and the local accent has not changed.

When children meet strangers, they will smile and ask where the guests are from.

The former sentence corrects itself in the sentences of "running away from home when I was young" and "going back to my boss", which almost describes how long I have lived in a foreign country and secretly shows the feeling of hurting my boss when I return home. The last sentence, with the constant "local accent" and the declining and changing "sideburns" as a contrast, highlights the homesickness and homesickness of the two periods.

Fourth, the title of "not working for the Yuan family"

I haven't met the owner of the villa. I'm here to sit and enjoy the forest and the rocks.

Master, don't worry about buying wine, bulging pockets and lack of drinks.

This poem highlights the author's open-minded character. The poet and the owner of the villa are strangers, so he came here because of the attraction of Lin Muquan stone, which implies that the forest garden is considerable from the side. Then the poet said to himself, brushed away his master's worries about him, and said that he was drinking and having fun. The poet said nothing about his other occupations, but the figure of the villa was everywhere, and the poet's own image was also vividly portrayed. Poetry is lively, fresh and interesting.

I don't know if it's the answer you want, I hope I can help you! Thank you for your adoption!
