Homesickness is a very meaningful poem. As far as the format of the poem is concerned, the rhetorical device of parallelism is obviously used, and parallelism is used to strengthen the potential and expressiveness of the language, so that the deep homesickness overflows.

Author Yu Guangzhong? Modern dynasty
When I was a child,
Homesickness is a small stamp,
I'm at this end,
Mom is over there.
When I grow up,
Homesickness is a narrow ticket,
I'm at this end,
The bride is over there.
Later,
Homesickness is a short grave,
I'm outside,
Mom's inside.
now
Homesickness is a shallow strait,
I'm at this end,
The mainland is over there

Appreciation of homesickness;
In refining and absorbing the impression, this poem has simple and rich beauty. Homesickness is an emotion that everyone can understand, but can't be accurately described in words. If you can't find an accurate directional image to compare and express, you will either fall into general mediocrity or fall into abstract emptiness.
This poem refines four images: stamps, boat tickets, graves and straits. They are simple, but not simple, but clear, concentrated and strong. They are also rich, and the impression deepens step by step with the progress of time: when I was a child, I grew up, and later, now, time is progressing, and I unconsciously entered an imagination.
The musical beauty of homesickness is also reflected in the rhythm of reciprocating and singing and sighing. In addition, the four paragraphs use words such as small, narrow, short, shallow and overlapping in the same position, which makes the whole poem deep and obscure, such as resentment. The use of the quantifier "piece by piece, curved side by side" not only shows the poet's literary creation, but also strengthens the aesthetic feeling of the whole poem.
Homesickness, like a "nostalgic song" with a slight lament in music, is an expression of deep affection of overseas wanderers for their hometown and the most beautiful love song for their motherland.
