I went to Luoyang to meet Yuan, a talented person, but I didn't expect him to become an exile in Jiangling. It is said that plum blossoms bloom early. Why is it so spring?

The meaning of this poem is: I went to Luoyang to meet Yuan, a talented person, but I didn't expect him to be exiled to Lingnan. I heard that the plum blossoms there bloom early, but how can they be better than the spring in Luoyang?

This poem was written by Meng Haoran, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. "I visited Yuan, but I didn't get it." This poem describes a poet who went to Luoyang to visit a gifted scholar, only to learn that he had been exiled to Jiangling. Through the contrast between "Plum Blossoms Bloom Early" and "Northland Spring", the poem expresses the poet's yearning for talents and longing for a better time.

The first sentence "Luoyang visits talented people" shows that the purpose of the poet's trip is to visit Yuan to collect the remains, and the lines between them are full of deep friendship and urgency. "Jiangling" in the second sentence of "Jiangling is a Wanderer" refers to the Tomb of Dayu. Dayuling lies between Jiangxi and Guangdong today. A "refugee" refers to being exiled beyond the ridge. What is said here is that Yuan Shiwei was demoted to Jiangling and became an exile.

These two poems mean: I made a special trip to Luoyang to visit Yuan, a talented person, and I didn't want him to be exiled outside the ridge. The word "visit" shows the poet's sincere and simple yearning for Yuan's collected works, but at the same time, the result of "visit" turns the poet from extreme excitement to extreme depression, which has aroused great concern from readers.

The third sentence "I heard that plum blossoms bloom early" continues the previous sentence. Plum blossoms that bloom early outside the ridge are in sharp contrast with the late spring in the north. The poet's mood of appreciating plum blossoms contrasts with the sadness of those who see them later, and the frivolous people who don't appreciate plum blossoms but complain that they don't bloom early stand out. Complaining that plum blossoms bloom early is not because the east wind is ruthless, but from the perspective of missing friends.

Artistic skills of poetry

There are many artistic techniques in poetry, and the combination of static and dynamic is one of them. Through the combination of dynamic description and static description, we can better express the beauty and emotion of things. For example, by depicting dynamic scenes such as empty mountains and spring sounds, the beauty of static things is highlighted; By depicting static things, such as mountain springs, sun colors and other static scenes, the dynamic characteristics of things are highlighted.

Lyricism is an artistic technique of poetry, which directly expresses the author's inner feelings through expressing feelings in scenery, blending scenes, expressing feelings in scenery and expressing feelings directly. In classical poetry, there are various ways to express emotions, such as direct lyricism, indirect lyricism, and lyricism by borrowing scenery. However, modern poetry directly expresses emotions and pays attention to the true and straightforward expression of emotions.
