Jiangnan is a poetic and picturesque place, and it is also the place where I was born and grew up. Whenever I am far away from my hometown, I always think of those ancient poems describing the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan. These poems express my attachment to my hometown. In this article, I will share the meaning of these poems and how I feel about them.
The first poem: "Jiangnan"
Jiangnan is good, and the scenery is familiar to me. When the sun rises, the flowers on the river are as red as fire, and when spring comes, the river is as green as blue. Can you not remember Jiangnan?
This poem was written by Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. He described the wonderful beauty of Jiangnan. These scenery have been deeply imprinted in his mind, so that he can't help but think of these beautiful scenery when he is far away from his hometown. As he said: "How can I not remember Jiangnan?".
I am the same as Bai Juyi. Whenever I leave my hometown, I always think of those beautiful scenery. I think of the small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River, the antique buildings and the leisurely and contented lifestyle. These scenes have been deeply imprinted in my heart and cannot be forgotten.
The second poem: "Spring Journey to Qiantang Lake"
To the north of Gushan Temple and to the west of Jia Pavilion, the water surface is initially flat and the clouds are low. In several places, early orioles compete for warmth in the trees, while new swallows peck at the spring mud. The random flowers are gradually charming the eyes, and only Asakusa has no horse hooves. My favorite part of the lake is the east side of the lake, where the green poplar trees shade the white sand embankment.
This poem was written by Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. He described his stroll by Qiantang Lake. He saw the scenery of early spring, heard the chirping of warblers, and felt the breath of spring. This also made him feel happy.
I also walked along the bank of Qiantang Lake and saw the scenery described by Bai Juyi. I saw the clear lake water, heard the singing of birds, and felt the breath of spring. These views make me feel happy and relaxed.
The third poem: "Nanxiangzi"
In the Dream of Red Mansions, it is said about the eyebrows, and outside the Blue Bridge, it is about the general. When I came, time flew by and I didn’t realize it was spring in Jiangnan. Life is like a dream and has nothing to do with you. I hope to see you in my dreams.
This poem was written by Yang Wanli, a poet from the Song Dynasty. He described his feelings after leaving his hometown. He thought of his friends and the sights of his hometown, and wished to see them often in his dreams.
Like Yang Wanli, I thought of my friends and the scenery of my hometown after leaving my hometown. I hope to see them often in my dreams so that my thoughts can be vented.
