The writing method of the short poem imitating the seventh day of the stars is as follows:
Imitating one: The sea! Which tree has no branches? Which book has no pages? Is there ever a time when my thoughts are not filled with the clear sound of your waves?
Imitation 2: Brother! When did you not fight with me? Is there ever a time when you are not angry? In which year did I not have the image of you crying in my mind?
Imitation 3: Mother! When did I get sick and you didn't take me to the hospital? When did I fail without your full encouragement? When was the time I was naughty without your strict teaching?
"Stars" is Bing Xin's first collection of poems. The collection includes 164 short poems written by the poet between the winter solstice of 1919 and the autumn of 1921.
