I. willow, poplar or catkin
The ancients used willows, poplars or catkins to express their feelings of parting, and friends sent them away. The Book of Songs: "I often go there.
"Yi" is the earliest poem to express farewell to the willow.
Since the Han Dynasty, people often give gifts to each other by folding willows because of the homonym of "willow" and "Liu". In the Han dynasty, there was a tune called "Folding Willow", which expressed farewell feelings in the form of playing. In the Tang Dynasty, Baling Bridge in Xi 'an was the only place for people to leave Chang 'an when they went to all parts of the country, and it was surrounded by willows, which became a famous place for the ancients to fold willows to bid farewell. For example, the poem "Willow leaves every year, Baling is sad to say goodbye" was used by later generations as the source of farewell allusions. Therefore, there are poems in the text, "Qingyang is more separated from strangers." In Liu Yong's Yulin Ridge, there is "Where to wake up tonight?" In "There is a lingering moon on the bank of the willow", he used "willow" to express the sadness of leaving his lover.
"When I hear the sound of the flute breaking the willow, I don't see the spring scenery", which means that the tune of "breaking the willow" in the flute spreads far away, but I don't see the willow green and spring scenery, so as to express my feelings of sighing for the spring.
Zheng Gu's Willow: "You will be infinitely interested in people who leave, and everything in Qian Qian will be like a spring breeze." Use catkins to express feelings of parting.
There are many farewell poems expressed by willows in ancient poems, so I won't repeat them here.
Second, spring grass
In China's classical poems, this image is a metaphor separated from hate. For example, "The Songs of Chu' Recruit Hermits'": "The wandering prince and grandson don't return, and the spring grass grows." Yuefu's Poems on Drinking Horses beyond the Great Wall: "The grass is beside the Qingqing River, and the spring breeze is blowing high in wildfire never quite consumes them. Weeds and wild flowers are all over the ancient road, and the end of the grass in the sun is your journey. Oh, my friend's prince, you left again, and I heard them sigh behind you. " Write grass in the first half of the poem and say goodbye secretly; Don't leave Chuncao in the second half of the year. Link "Spring Grass" with "Other Feelings". Start with real writing and end with virtual writing. This poem, with Li Sao's image of spring grass, expresses deep affection for seeing friends off.
Li Yu's Qing Ping Le: "If you hate like spring grass, you can go further and live better." With endless spring grass, far away from the horizon, it is a metaphor for the sadness of parting.
Li Shutong's Farewell: "Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is green." Connect the sky with green grass to show the feeling of parting and traveling.
Third, water.
There are also many ancient poems that use water as an image to express farewell feelings. For example, Li Bai's To Wang Lun: "Peach Blossom Pond is deeper than thousands of feet, not as good as Wang Lun." To express my love with "Peach Blossom Pond Water" far away from thousands of feet, it is still "not as good as" the friendship when Wang Lun sent me. Another example is Li Bai's "Yellow Crane Tower Farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou": "The lonely sail is far away from the sky, and the Yangtze River is flowing in the sky." The feeling of farewell is like an eastward flowing river.
Fourth, spring scenery
Wang Wei's metaphor for his friend's lovesickness in Sending Shen Zifu to Jiangdong is more interesting. "There are few passengers on Liudu, and the teacher paddles to the entrance. Only acacia is like spring scenery, and Jiangnan Jiangbei will send you home. " In this poem, the author compares the feeling of seeing friends off to the spring scenery in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, and the imagination is very fresh, turning abstract feelings into concrete images.
Spring grass, spring water and spring scenery are all concrete images, and the author uses them to express concrete feelings, turning intangible into tangible, turning heartlessness into sentient beings, and expressing parting feelings more vividly, as if they were visible and tangible. Song Dandan said, "You have to ask me how much I love you. The moon represents my heart. " That's the truth.
Verb (abbreviation for verb) farewell place
There are many places in China's classical poems to express farewell, which has since become a special farewell place.
For example, the "Pavilion" is a farewell place on land. Li Bai Bodhisattva Xia: "Where are you going home? The pavilion is shorter. " Liu Yong's Yulinling: "Cold and sad, Changting is too late." Li Shutong's Farewell: "Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is green." It can be seen that in China's classical poems, "Changting" has become a farewell place on land.
Since there are farewell places on land, there are also farewell places by the water, such as "Nanpu". Qu Yuan's nine songs "Hebo": "Fight with the sons, travel eastward, and send the beautiful Nanpu." Jiang Yan's "Biefu": "Spring grass is green, spring water is surging, and you are sent to Nanpu. What injury? " Fan Chengda's "Hengtang": "Nanpu spring comes to a blue river, and the stone bridge and the tower are still two." The ancients bid farewell to the water not only in Nanpu, because of the long-term national culture, Nanpu has become the proper name of the farewell place near the water.
In addition, there are Xie Pavilion, West Building and Old Pavilion, all of which are famous farewell places.
