What does the poem Stars 159 mean?

When reviewing the creation of Stars and Spring Water, Bing Xin said: "There are often some things related to you behind the three-line poem. Seeing these things reminds you of some very kind and real scenes." Then, is there anything that makes the poet feel "cordial" and "true" behind these three or five lines of poetry? Yes. Bing Xin tells us in the essay "Past (1) 7": In the torrential rain, the red-violet in the courtyard was beaten sideways by the dense raindrops; A big lotus leaf beside the red-violet slowly fell down and was covering the red-violet. Raindrops could no longer wreak havoc on the red-violet, but only hit the brave and merciful lotus leaf. At that time, her heart was deeply moved-"Mother! You are a lotus leaf, and I am a red lotus. The raindrops in my heart are coming. Who is my shade under the open sky except you? " It turns out that this little poem is the generate and pour out of the poet's strong feelings at this moment, and it is the bare heart of the poet's incomparable love for his mother.

This little poem is an ode to maternal love. The first call of "Mother" came from the heart, conveying the poet's stirring emotions and showing the poet's passionate and sincere feelings for his mother as a daughter. "The wind and rain in the sky came, and the bird hid in its nest", which led to the praise of maternal love: "The wind and rain in my heart came, and I only hid in your arms." When the soul needs to find a home, maternal love becomes the safest and warmest place to stay. The bird's sense of security, warmth, and happiness in its comfortable nest, reflects the greatness and power of maternal love: the mother's warm and generous embrace will always be a safe haven and body care place for her children's souls. Maternal love is one of the three major themes in Stars and Spring Water. Many short poems eulogize the power of maternal love in fiery language, such as Stars 12 (also the preface to Spring Water): "Mother! Can you have a look at this fragmentary article? These words were hidden in your heart before I was there. " Here, maternal love is regarded as the "source of all things".

It should be pointed out that although the author's understanding of maternal love as the destination of the soul and as a safe haven from the ups and downs in the world is still limited, this view is natural under the social background at that time. At that time, the social reality was only cold and rainy, full of intrigue and intrigue, without or without the warmth of "love" In addition, there are very few works praising maternal love in China's classical poems, which are only Meng Jiao's Poem Ode to a Wandering Son, and the feelings for his mother are contained in homesick poems and poems about missing friends. This is the reflection of women's low social status in feudal society. Bing Xin's affectionate singing of maternal love is just a reflection of the spirit of the May 4th Movement in the poetry circle, which is of anti-feudal significance. As far as the field of poetry creation is concerned, it is also the development of theme and theme, and Bing Xin's contribution to new poetry should not be ignored.

Bing Xin's creation advocates "displaying individuality and expressing oneself" and creating "true literature". This little poem eulogizes the love of the mother, and its value lies in the word "truth", what is in your heart and what you write, expressing your true feelings here and now without any affectation. Bing Xin's praise of maternal love is based on her personal life experience. Her parents' care for her is really meticulous, and her feelings for her parents' love are really unforgettable. Therefore, at that moment, such a strong feeling can be triggered and condensed into such a natural, simple and delicate poem, showing the characteristics of women's femininity, delicacy and euphemism.

Bing Xin's short poems generally don't rhyme, but this one is an exception. The endings of two or four sentences are exactly the same as those of three or five sentences. Two or three sentences are symmetrical with four or five sentences, with the same rhythm and melody. Four sentences are strong, weak, strong and weak. In terms of expression, two or three sentences play the role of metaphor. In this way, the whole poem has a repetition in melody, fluctuating with natural and soft melody beauty.
