The contents of "Stars" and "Spring Water" are "feelings and memories anytime and anywhere" that the poet Bing Xin casually jotted down. These two poetry collections are the natural brew of Bing Xin's life, feelings, and thoughts, and enjoy a high reputation at home and abroad. Later, she was inspired by Rabindranath Tagore's "Birds" and felt that her little miscellaneous thoughts in a few words also contained the shadow of poetry, so she organized them into two small collections of poems. Bing Xin probably would not have thought at the time that the publication of her two collections of subtle, timeless and philosophical poems would stir the long-silent heartstrings of so many young people, and thus, under her influence, promote the May Fourth movement. "The new poetry since then has entered an era of popularity of short poems. Generally speaking, the themes of "Stars" and "Spring Water" roughly include three aspects: one is the praise of maternal love and innocence; the other is the worship and praise of nature; the third is the thinking and perception of life. This poem perfectly combines the praise of maternal love, the call for innocence, and the chant of nature, creating a world of perfection and beauty, with deep feelings, fresh and elegant language, giving people endless aftertaste and enlightenment , is one of the most beautiful chapters in Bing Xin's poems. In terms of language, "Stars" and "Spring Water" are fresh, elegant, crystal clear, clear, clear and long-lasting, and have unique charm. "Stars" and "Spring Water" combine the strengths of Chinese classical poetry and Rabindranath Tagore's philosophical poems. Bing Xin wrote two collections of poems, "Stars" and "Spring Water", with her unique feminine, delicate, fresh and beautiful language. The language is fresh and elegant yet crystal clear, clear and smooth yet has long emotional charm, and has formed a unique artistic style. The collection of poems "Stars and Spring Water" is an untitled free-style poem, with "nature", "childlike innocence" and "maternal love" as its themes. It is based on the praise of maternal love and innocence, the praise of nature, and the thoughts and perceptions of life. The main content expresses her emotions for her mother, her love for children, her admiration for nature and her understanding of life. It was called the Starry Style and Spring Water Body by the famous writer Mao Dun. First, strong philosophy is a major artistic feature of "Stars" and "Spring Water". Many poems in "Stars" and "Spring Water" are philosophical poems containing profound thoughts. These profound thoughts are often integrated with the specific images depicted in the poem and the poet's deep thoughts, so they still have the mood of poetry and the beauty of poetry. Second, delicacy is another distinctive feature of Bing Xin’s poetry. Bing Xin's poems show a kind of feminine delicacy everywhere. With her lyrical style "full of tenderness and sadness", she sings about pure love with deep emotion and depicts the beauty of nature; at the same time, she also expresses her condemnation of certain social ugly phenomena in a unique way. Third, the text is soft and elegant, the rhythm is natural, and the artistic conception is beautiful and clear. The use of words and phrases in "Stars" and "Spring Water" seems to be picked at random, revealing a soft and elegant style everywhere. "Stars" and "Spring Water" were written by Bing Xin under the influence of the Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore's "Birds". In her own words, they were a collection of "fragmented thoughts" in a collection. Generally speaking, they roughly include three aspects. The first is a celebration of maternal love and innocence. Bing Xin, the first famous female writer in the history of modern Chinese literature, became famous for promoting the "philosophy of love" as soon as she entered the literary world. And maternal love is the fundamental starting point of the "philosophy of love". She believes that maternal love is the source of nurturing all things and the fundamental driving force that drives the world toward light. In "Stars" and "Spring Water", she regards maternal love as the most noble and beautiful thing, and repeatedly praises it. The second is the worship and praise of nature. In Bing Xin's view, human beings come from nature and return to nature, and humans and nature should be in harmony. The third is the understanding and thinking about life. In terms of art, "Stars" and "Spring Water" combine the strengths of Chinese classical poetry and Rabindranath Tagore's philosophical poems. They are good at capturing momentary inspiration and writing inner feelings and thoughts in a few words. The form is short but meaningful. Especially in terms of language, it is fresh, elegant and crystal clear, clear and clear yet has a long rhyme, and has unique artistic charm.
It is also called "the grid of stars and the body of spring water" by Mao Dun.
