From tomorrow on, I want to be a happy person;
Comb hair, chop wood and travel around the world.
From tomorrow on, I will care about food and vegetables.
Living in a house facing the sea, spring is blooming.
From tomorrow on, write to everyone I love.
Tell them my happiness,
What did the lightning of happiness tell me,
I will distribute it to each of them.
Give every river and mountain a warm name.
Stranger, I will also wish you happiness.
I wish you a bright future!
May you lovers get married!
May you be happy on earth.
I only want to face the sea and spring blossoms.
This poem expresses the poet's yearning for natural simple living. Although he sincerely wishes people happiness in earthly life, his own value orientation is beyond the secular. "I just want to face the sea and spring blossoms." The "happiness" that the poet yearns for is free and idyllic (section 1). In his personal life, he hopes to "face the sea" and keep a distance from the world, but he is unwilling to give up his emotional connection with society. He is willing to tell everyone about his happiness and explain his personal values to the world. But the poet does not deny the secular lifestyle because of his own life orientation. This reflects the contemporary concept of value diversification. It is worth noting that the poet is not sure about the happiness he yearns for, and he compares "happiness" to a brilliant and short-lived "lightning"; The phrase "from tomorrow on" appears twice in the poem, which seems to imply that his dream of a "happy" life is unrealistic-only "from tomorrow on, be a happy person". When is this "tomorrow"? This implies that the real life the poet is experiencing is not happy, and he is still struggling in the world. This poem is meaningful.
Haizi is regarded as an outstanding figure in China's contemporary poetry and has made his own contribution to China's contemporary poetry. For a person who is too close to the present, we don't have to rush to comment and wait for history to judge.
