Traditional poetry creation

Traditional poetry creation is as follows:

Scenes first, then feelings.

For example, Wang Zhihuan's "In the Lodge of the Heron": the mountains cover the day, and the ocean drains the golden river. Going further, the first two sentences describe the scenery and the last two sentences describe the feelings. His poems are touching. Heaven, Mountain and Yellow River are three scenic words, which become the trigger point of poets. After a beautiful sunset picture of mountains and rivers, it triggered the philosophy of climbing high and looking far. Looking at the vast number of poems, there are many ways to write the first scene and then the feelings.

Love precedes scenery.

For example, the autumn poem written by Liu Yuxi, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty: Autumn has been sad and lonely since ancient times, and I say autumn is not as good as spring. There is no one in the clear sky in Wan Li, and a crane, Ling Yunfei, has aroused my meditation on the blue sky. The first two sentences are about love, and the last two sentences are about scenery. This writing is just the opposite of the previous writing. Make an argument first, and then write a scene to prove his argument. This kind of writing is mostly based on scenes, leaving readers to understand, imagine and supplement themselves, with endless aftertaste and lasting chewing.

Scene alternation

Writing scenery and lyrical or writing scenery and lyrical, such as "You Hua Qing Chi": a pool of clear water is transparent, and there was no luxury in that year. Mount Li in spring is not old, but it is still green and reflected in the water. This poem has one or four sentences describing the scenery, two or three lyrical sentences, feelings in the scenery, and scenery in the scenery. Comparing the Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei who bathed here in those years with Lishan Mountain, the former has already turned into dust and disappeared without a trace, while the latter is evergreen all the year round, arousing readers' cherish of nature.

Write a scene for each sentence.

For example, "Autumn is Prosperous": autumn colors and mountains are exposed, and red maple is flying all over the sky. Lin Hongyan called jathyapple, and the magpie called Zaoxia loudly. All four sentences are about scenery, but the scenery contains feelings. Through images, it praised the scene of harmony between man and nature.

The above four writing methods are not only applicable to quatrains, but also to poems, words, songs and couplets. For example, when writing metrical poems, we can regard the quadruple as four sentences; When writing lyrics, the upper and lower parts can be used as the upper and lower parts of the quatrains respectively. Sixteen-character technique is the basic creative point, but it is not absolute, so don't care too much.

Because the creative methods of poetry are ever-changing, in addition to the four common scene arrangements, there are eight kinds of opening, four kinds of ending and so on. These methods are the poet's experience and summary in practice. The colorful forms of poetic expression have produced various artistic effects.

Therefore, writing poetry should not be limited to a certain mode, but should be flexible and diverse. Poets who often go deep into life will naturally write good poems with characteristics because they usually read and write more and their skills are gradually improving. Genius comes from diligence, knowledge comes from accumulation, and success comes naturally.
