Aestheticism poetry, vague modern poetry
Shu Ting is one of the representatives of the misty poetry school, and her To the Oak is one of the representative works of the misty poetry tide. If I love you, I will never show off like climbing Campbell: if I love you, I will never learn from spoony birds and repeat monotonous songs for the shade; It is not only like spring, but also brings cool comfort all year round; It is not just like a dangerous peak, it increases your height and sets off your dignity. Even during the day. Even spring rain. No, these are not enough! I must be a kapok beside you, standing with you as a tree. Roots, close to the ground, leaves, lingering in the clouds. Every time a gust of wind blows, we greet each other, but no one understands us. You have your copper branches and iron stems, like a knife, like a sword, like a halberd, I have my red flowers, like a heavy sigh, like a heroic torch, and we share the cold wave, storm and thunderbolt; We * * * enjoy the mist and rainbow, as if we were separated forever, but we were dependent on each other for life. This is great love, and here is firmness: not only love your stalwart body, but also love your stand and the land under your feet. Appreciation: To the Oak warmly and frankly sings the poet's personality ideal. The oak and kapok, which stand side by side and are independent and opposite, can be said to be a group of symbolic images with brand-new character in China's love poems. The image of "oak tree" symbolizes the rigid beauty of men, while the kapok of "safflower" obviously embodies the female personality with new aesthetic temperament. She abandoned the delicate nature of old-fashioned women and was full of rich life breath, which was completely consistent with the poet's ideal of pursuing women's independence and self-esteem in artistic expression. Poetry adopts the lyrical way of inner monologue, which is convenient for expressing the poet's inner world frankly and openly. At the same time, the image is constructed as a whole symbol (the whole poem correspondingly symbolizes the independent personality and sincere love of both lovers with the whole image of oak and kapok), which makes philosophical thoughts and ideas germinate and poetic in a kind of intimate and sensible image, so this poem with rational temperament makes people feel that there is no preaching.
