I am a blooming summer lotus.
How hopeful
You can see me now.
Wind and frost are not here to erode.
The autumn rain did not fall.
The green season has left me again.
I have no worries or fears.
Now is the time.
My most beautiful moment
The heavy door was locked.
After a fragrant smile
Who knows my lotus heart?
You don't have a chance.
Either come too early, or
too late
Lotus has always been the object of praise by literati. How many poets have sung the feelings, interests, aspirations, fragrance, love and dreams of lotus from the era of the Book of Songs to the present? The most famous is Zhou Dunyi's "Love the Lotus Only, Don't Be Dyed, Be Bright but Not Demon". Praise Lian's noble sentiment, which poets also use as a metaphor.
In the works of Xi Murong, a famous contemporary poet, lotus has become her own unique image. She uses lotus as a metaphor to write women's "troubles" from their unique perspectives and feelings, and Heart of Lotus is one of the representatives.
Although the "I" written in "Lotus Heart" has excellent charm, it is lonely. No one can know my heart. Love always passes me by, and "I" is always missed. This poem reveals an indescribable sadness and sorrow for missing. Poetry is paved with one or two verses, and then "troubles" are highlighted in the third verse.
In the whole poem, the poet compared himself to a summer lotus from the beginning. This lotus is neither a budding lotus nor a withered flower, but a blooming lotus. I have gone through a period of ignorance and simplicity, and now I am a mature, elegant and radiant lotus. "I hope you can see me now."
We will all be attracted by this lotus and fall in love with her deeply, because she is so graceful. "Wind and frost will erode autumn rain in the future", "I", "Pavilion" and "I am not worried or afraid".
One or two verses give people a feeling of joy and happiness. Looking at the poems and imagining the gesture of "filling the lotus", it is not difficult to think of the charm of the heroine. But in the third season, the poem took a turning point. It was the "most beautiful moment" of "me", but it was "locked". Why? Because I didn't meet the right person at the right time, I and you have been missing. "After a smile, who knows what my heart is thinking?" The heroine seems to be complaining, as if she is pouring out her heart, making readers feel sorry for it, sighing for it, because she can't get true love, because she misses him again and again.
This poem makes good use of the writing skills of "crossing the line", and the interval between space and time makes the poem more expressive. For example, the first section is changed to "I am a blooming summer lotus, I hope you can see me now". This expression, with various grammatical elements piled together, looks very smooth, but it is more like the arrangement of prose. The poet skillfully divided these two sentences into four lines, and "I" became a line independently, which made people feel the maturity and stability of the heroine. "Many hopes" go independently, which helps to emphasize the hope of "I", a kind of expectation and longing. The last part,
"Without you!
Either come too early, or
It is too late. "
It's too late to travel independently, which better shows the heroine's self-pity because she doesn't want to miss him many times. This kind of prominence and emphasis in the arrangement makes the bleak and heavy mood of the poem stand out.
Reading this poem, our feelings will fluctuate with the poet's words. In the first season, we can feel the passion of the heroine. In the second quarter, we are faced with her charm. In the third quarter, the feelings of the whole poem changed from hope to depression and complaint. In the fourth quarter, the sad mood reached its peak. We seem to think that the heroine's tears have flowed all over the floor. ...
