Yu Guangzhong's poems are all about the past and the present, and their meanings run through China and the West. China's long-standing poetic tradition always moistens his young poetic heart. At the intersection of tradition and modernity, Yu Guangzhong's poems are more mixed. Poetry uses modern techniques such as monologue and synaesthesia to integrate modern people's feelings with classical beauty, and modern poetry with ancient sayings, so that poetry has reached a pure and exquisite realm.
Yu Guangzhong's pursuit of poetry creation, from free poetry to modern poetry, from percussion to folk songs, all shows his rich and varied talents. Waiting for you in the rain is a masterpiece of Yu Guangzhong's love poems.
In Yu Guangzhong's poems, the image of lotus appears many times. Poets advocate the beauty and holiness of lotus, so lotus is not only a concrete object, but also a combination of beauty and ideal. Knowing this, we also know why the dating place in the poem is arranged by the lotus pond at dusk. At this time, the poet turned sharply, and when the clock pointed to seven o'clock, the beautiful scenery came. According to the convention, the poet wants to turn the illusion into reality in the hug and kiss between "I" and my lover. But the poet is ingenious and unexpected. He writes "I" and looks at beauty from Shanshan as if he saw a red lotus. The beautiful rhythm in Jiang Baishi's poems slowly flows into "I" like tinkling spring water ... The poem has come to an abrupt end, and the rest is unfinished, which makes readers immersed in it for a long time.
Yu Guangzhong's poems are full of distinctive and unique artistic features. This uniqueness is inseparable from the uniqueness of his artistic creation path. He moved from romanticism in metrical poems to modernism, and from modernism to traditional culture. The uniqueness of his poetic art embodies the organic combination of modernity and tradition.
Waiting for you in the rain has beautiful language, soft rhyme and ethereal realm of oriental classical beauty. At the same time, from the arrangement of poems, it fully embodies the poet's deliberate pursuit of the architectural beauty of modern metrical poems. However, Yu Guangzhong did not abandon "modernity" while returning to tradition. What he seeks is a kind of "modernity" with profound traditional background, or a kind of "classicism" baptized by "modernity". His modern consciousness attaches importance to the defamiliarization of poetic images and metaphors, which embodies the poet's unique observation and understanding of some thoughts with the flavor of the times in modern life. Poetry uses modern techniques such as monologue and synaesthesia to combine modern people's feelings with classical beauty, and to integrate modern poetry with ancient sayings, so that poetry has reached a pure and exquisite realm.
