1, paper boat
Author: Tagore
I put the paper boats one by one in the swift stream every day.
I wrote my name and the name of the village where I lived in big black letters on the paper boat.
I hope people living in different places can get this paper boat and know who I am.
I put Li Xiuhua, who grows in the garden, on my boat.
I hope these dawn flowers can be safely brought to the shore at night.
I threw the paper boat into the water and looked up at the sky.
I saw a small cloud covered with white sails of the wind.
I wonder what my playmates are in the sky. Put these boats down and race with me!
When night came, my face was buried in my arm,
I dreamed that my boat was floating slowly under the midnight starlight.
The sleeping fairy sat on the boat with a basket full of dreams.
Appreciate:
The whole poem creates an innocent child image for us and expresses the theme of love and beauty that the author has been paying attention to. This pure expression of childlike innocence can awaken the warmth in readers' hearts. An image that runs through this poem is a paper boat. The whole poem begins with putting a paper boat, ends with seeing a paper boat in a dream, and there are scenes and associations when putting a paper boat in the middle. The paper boat here is not only a little sustenance for the little hero, but also a metaphor for the media leading to the outside world and the future.
2. "When you are old"
Author: Ye Zhi
When you are old, gray-haired and sleepy,
Take a nap by the fire, please write down this poem.
Read slowly and recall the tenderness of your eyes in the past.
Recall the heavy shadows of their past;
How many people love you when you are young and happy,
Worship your beauty, hypocrisy or sincerity,
Only one person loves your pilgrim soul,
Love the painful wrinkles on your aging face;
I hung my head, by the red fire,
Whispering sadly about the passing of love,
On the mountain overhead, it walked slowly.
A face is hidden among a group of stars.
Appreciate:

Life is precious,
Love is more expensive.

You can throw them both.
