Thinking in Quiet Night: Li Bai in Tang Dynasty
The foot of my bed is shining so brightly. Is there frost already? I looked up at the moon and looked down, feeling nostalgic.
The bright moonlight sprinkled on enough paper in front of the bed, as if the ground was covered with frost. I couldn't help looking up at the bright moon in the sky outside the window that day, and I couldn't help but bow my head and think of my hometown in the distance.
Appreciation: Silent Night Thinking is a poem about the homesickness of distant guests, in which the artistic conception of a quiet and intoxicating autumn night is carved in clear language. It does not pursue the novelty of imagination, and it also abandons the exquisite beauty of rhetoric; It expresses rich and profound contents with fresh and simple brushwork. Environment is environment, emotion is emotion, so vivid, so moving, never tired of reading, intriguing.
Second, patriotic ancient poems:
Seven Poems of Joining the Army, Part IV, Tang Dynasty: Wang Changling.
There is a dark snow-capped mountain in Qinghai, with long white clouds and a lonely city looking at Yumenguan. Yellow sand wears golden armor in hundreds of battles, but the loulan is not returned.
Qinghai Lake is covered with dark clouds, and the continuous snow-capped mountains are bleak. Yumen, the ancient city of frontier fortress, is a grand pass, thousands of miles away, facing each other from afar. The soldiers guarding the border have been through many battles, their armor is worn out, their ambitions are immortal, and they will never return to their hometown until they defeat the invading enemy.
Appreciation: Readers of frontier poems in Tang Dynasty are often confused by the confusion of ancient and modern place names and the blank space in the poems. Some people doubt that the author is not familiar with geography, so they don't seek a good solution, and others write for it. I lamented that I didn't go home one day, but I made a firmer and deeper oath on the basis of deeply understanding the hardships and length of the war. An important ideological feature of the excellent frontier poems in the prosperous Tang Dynasty is that while expressing the lofty sentiments and ambitions of the frontier guards, they do not avoid the suffering of war.
