On the other side of the mountain
Jiaxin Wang
one
When I was a child, I used to lie in front of the window and daydream.
-What's that over there?
My mother told me: the sea
Oh, is that the sea beyond the mountain?
So, with a secret wish,
One day, I finally climbed to the top of that mountain.
However, I almost came back crying.
── On the other side of the mountain, it's still a mountain.
On the other side of the mountain, there is a livid face.
Give my fantasy a zero!
Mom, where is the sea?
two
Beyond the mountain, it is the sea!
It is a sea of faith.
Today, I didn't expect it.
A seed floating since childhood
But it took root in my heart.
Yes, I am disappointed again and again.
When I climbed to the top of the mountain that tempted me
But I got up my confidence again and again and walked forward.
Because I hear the sea still clamoring for me in the distance.
The snow-white tide comes every night.
Moisten my dry heart again and again ...
Beyond the mountain, is it the sea?
Yes! People, please believe them one by one.
After climbing countless mountains.
After overcoming disappointment again and again
You will eventually climb to the top of such a mountain.
Over this mountain is the sea.
This is a brand-new world.
Light up your eyes in an instant ...
This is a modern poem written by Wang Jiaxin, which was selected as the seventh-grade Chinese textbook of People's Education Edition and the sixth-grade Chinese textbook of Hubei Education Edition. The poet takes mountains and the sea as images, compares the sea to ideals, compares difficulties to mountains and compares hard struggle to climbing mountains, thus telling people that the journey to an ideal life is long and full of difficulties, but as long as you are not afraid of difficulties and persist in struggle, your ideals will eventually come true.
