(A) Poetry is like a picture scroll, beautiful.
Su Shi once said, "Poetry is like painting in charm, and painting is like poetry in charm" (Dongpo Zhi Lin). Wang Wei is versatile. He brought the essence of painting into the world of poetry and painted vivid works for us with spiritual language and beautiful brushwork. His landscape poems, such as "An egret flies over a quiet wetland and a mango bird sings in a tree in midsummer" ("Wangchuan Cabin after My Long Rain"), are about coloring and gaining motivation. Wang Wei's landscape poems are about structural diagrams, which are rich in levels, from far to near, and even both static and dynamic, with good sound and color, more dynamic and musical beauty, such as "A thousand valleys touch the sky from a tree, and cuckoos crow on a thousand peaks". After a night in Shan Yu, hundreds of silky waterfalls will appear on every mountain top. Another example is "Mountain in Autumn": "After the rain, the mountains are empty and stand in the autumn night." . The bright moon shed clear light from the cracks and cleared the fountain on the rocks. The bamboo forest is sonorous, the washerwoman returns, and the lotus leaves are swaying to get on the canoe. My friend's prince, what does it matter if spring is over and you are still here? . "There are long-term close-ups, looking up and down, cool and warm colors, as well as human voices and underwater sounds, which fully integrate the beauty of painting, music and poetry. Interest is long and fascinating.
(2) Scenes blend together, just like nature itself.
Wang Wei's landscape poems are picturesque, and many of them are full of affection. Many of Wang Wei's landscape poems are full of strong local flavor and life interest, showing his leisurely life and quiet state of mind. For example, my message to Pei Di from my cabin in Wangchuan said, "The mountain is cold and blue now, and the autumn water has been flowing all day. At the door of my thatched cottage, leaning on my cane, I listened to the cicadas singing in the evening breeze. Sunset lingers at the ferry, and the smoke from supper rises from the house. Oh, when will I make a wish to the great hermit again and sing a wild poem under five willows? Express your quiet and carefree mood in the beautiful scenery and rich pastoral atmosphere. In Wang Wei's poems, scenery is used to express feelings, and scenery is used to set off feelings, which makes his scenery memorable and lyrical. For example, "Lin sent Li to pick up the skeleton": "What is Chuanyuan when sending Lin?" Birds are still flying and pedestrians are still walking in the sunset. "In Wang Wei's poems, many people express their feelings directly, which often appears natural and smooth, with implicit meaning. Such as "Send Yuan 20 An Xi": Weicheng is rainy and dusty, and the guest house is green and willow. Sincerely advise friends to drink a glass of wine, and it is difficult to meet their loved ones when they go out to Yang Guan in the west. Care and consideration are beyond words. The beauty of Wang Wei's love writing lies in his simple and popular description of the real scene, which contains deep and graceful feelings. One of his "Acacia", with a small red bean, is a classic of "Acacia".
(3) Poetry permeates Zen and is elegant and ethereal.
On the contrary, many of Wang Wei's poems are cold and quiet, far away from the world and full of Zen. The artistic conception of mountains and rivers has gone beyond the ordinary natural aesthetics and entered a religious realm, which is the inevitable embodiment of Wang Wei's Buddhist cultivation. In the era when Wang Wei lived, Buddhism flourished, and the literati learned Buddhism very well. Several times of political dissatisfaction and seclusion in his life made Wang Wei concentrate on studying Buddhism in order to despise fame and fortune and get rid of his troubles. There are poems to be found, such as "Crossing Ji Xiang Temple", which says, "I don't know the road of Jixiang Temple, but I can walk for miles in the mountains. At dusk, close to an empty pool, thoughts can conquer the dragon of passion. " Another example is: "people are idle, and the mountains are empty at night." When the moon comes out, the birds are startled, and the sound enters the spring stream. "Everything is silent and inaction, illusory and impermanent, aimless, unconscious, without joy in life and sorrow in death, but everything is immortal and eternal, just as Hu Yinglin's poem and Huang's" Tang Poetry Express "commented:" People forget their own life experiences when reading, and all thoughts are silent, which does not mean rhythm. "
