The sea has also turned green.
Is spring here yet?
A small fish jumped out of the water.
Look up.
Come on, come on.
In the germinated seaweed.
Let's play hide-and-seek
-Jin Meiling's "Spring of Fish"
A poem, with a beautiful picture, is pure and lovely, like a poet muttering to himself about nature and a joke between children. Although it is written, it is full of picture sense and childlike interest. This poem comes from Jin Meiling, a Japanese nursery rhyme poet, whose poetry collection "Towards a Bright Direction". During the month when I read this collection of poems, I seemed to be immersed in this naive and romantic mood every day. The sun shines and the world is bright.

This book was recommended by a friend. After reading it, I can't help but want to know about Jin Meiling. What kind of poet is she?
Born in 1903 (Lin was born in 1904 and was contemporary with). Her father died at the age of 3, and she ran a bookstore with her mother and grandmother. She also has a brother and a younger brother, and her mother gave him to her sister and brother-in-law as adopted sons.
Although her father died young, Jin Meiling should have a warm and happy childhood. She grew up in a bookstore, accompanied by books, smart, early and wise, surrounded by loving grandmother and mother. However, when I was in junior high school, my family was reborn and my menstruation died. My mother remarried to her uncle to take care of her brother. Jin Meiling lives with her brother and grandmother.
At the age of 20, she first submitted a manuscript in the name of "Jin Meiling" and was praised by the famous poet Xitiao at that time: "Her whole poems are wrapped in a warm and gentle feeling."
As an adult, Jin Meiling got along well with his brother and younger brother, and often talked about literature, music and movies together. My uncle's family runs a large bookstore. After my brother got married, Jin Meiling worked in my uncle's bookstore. With the help of her uncle, she married an employee of a bookstore.
Before and after marriage, it was a watershed for Jin Meiling. Before marriage, she was free, with the care of her grandmother and mother, the warm gathering time of her brothers and sisters, and the company of books and poems. Although life is not satisfactory, her heart is free, so she can have such beautiful poems.
After marriage, my husband cheated on me and lost his job. She was pregnant and moved several times with her husband. There is no spiritual intersection with her husband, and life is hard, but she is still reading and writing poems in a hectic life. The good times didn't last long. Her husband forbade her to read and write poems, forbade her to associate with literary friends, and infected her with the disease of Huajie Liuxiang.
The movie The Golden Bell is a family of three.
Seeing Jin Meiling's experience, she was almost physically and mentally tortured, which was really difficult. What is more cruel, however, is that Jin Meiling finally divorced, and she wanted to keep her daughter, but at that time, Japanese law was that the father had custody of her daughter. Her husband refused to give her her daughter. Her last choice was to end her life and leave a suicide note, hoping to give her daughter to her mother for support.
1930, her life finally stayed at the age of 27.

The collection of poems towards the bright side is divided into six parts: summer, autumn, winter, spring, heart and dream, and each part has several short poems.
Jin Meiling's nursery rhymes are all based on children's tone and childlike innocence. For example, wind, sunshine, snow, rain, grass, trees, fish and birds. Every image is a poem. She observes life carefully, feels everything with her heart, and then conveys these beautiful things to readers through words.
However, sometimes you can read strength and sadness from her poems. "To the bright direction, to the grass in the bright defense line/bush, even if it is a leaf, it should also leak in the direction of the sun ... The insects flying in the dark, even if their wings are burnt, will pounce on the place where the lights are flashing ... Children staying in the house, even in a small space, should face the sun."
It may also be her tortuous life experience that makes her feel the details of nature better than other poets. "The snow upstairs is very cold. The cold moonlight shines on the snow above/below. It is heavy. Hundreds of people are pressing it/the snow in the middle. Very lonely, invisible, invisible. " This song "Snow", she seems to be as sad as snow. Behind what we can't see, I forget the deep things.
In the part of "Heart", she wrote a poem about her mother. "Although my mother is an adult, her heart is very small, because she said that my heart is full of a little me. /Although I am a little person, my little guy has a big heart, because my heart can hold many other things besides my big mother. " This song reads like a child talking to himself, naughty and lovely, and the love of the mother and the innocence of the child come to life.
Jin Meiling left many such poems. In her short life, the last few years were almost full of sadness and despair. Only poetry and daughter are the sunshine in her life, bringing her a little warmth. After being infected with sexually transmitted diseases, she was often bedridden and tortured physically and mentally, but her poems were still light and beautiful, and fate did not crush her.

1926, Jin Meiling was 23 years old. Her two poems, Fishing and Fish, were included in the collection of Japanese nursery rhymes. At that time, she was the second female member of the Japanese Nursery Rhyme Poets Association.
1957, 27 years after Jin Meiling's death, Fu Jie Yasaki, a freshman, read Dayu and was deeply moved. He began to look for this poet with only two poems. After many troubles, he found Jin Meiling's younger brother, who kept three handwritten manuscripts of his sister, including 565,438+02 poems.
After many twists and turns, all Jin Meiling's poems were published, which shocked the Japanese literary world. It turns out that so many people like her poems, or that her poems touched and warmed so many people.
When reading Jin Meiling's poems, you can feel her burning heart, talk softly and touch the purest corner of your heart with the simplest language, because "every adult was once a child!" "
At the same time, her poems are also sad. She integrates herself with everything. She touches both sadness and joy. "The morning glow is red, a bumper harvest/sardines with big tails, a bumper harvest. The seaside is as lively as a temple fair/but there are thousands of sardines' funerals in the sea! " When I first read Man Cang the Fish, I would think of a little girl who watched the tree being cut down. The little girl trembled as if she could feel the pain of the tree when the workers cut it down.
27 years old, what a beautiful age! Although Jin Meiling's life is short, her poems have spread all over the world and warmed countless people.
In fact, at that time, she had divorced love rat's husband, so she could take a rest and live her own life. But her husband broke his word, promised to raise her daughter, and broke his word again. Finally, Jin Meiling chose to end his life. Her last wish was that her daughter was raised by her mother, and her husband finally gave up the custody of her daughter.
As a mother and a nursery rhyme poet, she probably knows how wonderful it is for a child to grow up in a loving environment! If you are free, but put your daughter in a fire pit, she will be very heartbroken.
Jin Meiling could have had a beautiful life, reading and writing poems freely, enjoying life and sunshine, but her life changed because she met love rat. Reading the poems left by the golden bell jar, we still can't help feeling sorry. How can such a beautiful age fade away gently? Alas!
