The choice of poetry creation material is based on the creation material of a scene or thing that the poet is touched by poetry and then chooses. Everything is poetic, but some people can easily find and feel poetic, while others can't recognize it. Poetry is the poet's association with something or a language, which is both beautiful and far away. Conceptually speaking, poetry is the mutual integration, mutual tolerance and mutual absorption of subjective feelings and objective existence, thus producing a beautiful and profound association of poets. For example, when a poet sees a painting, it looks like an ordinary painting to the public, but a poet who feels poetic can see half of life and see the flowing water of life. In fact, the poet interpreted this painting differently through self-feeling and association. Therefore, poetic things are often familiar, concrete and familiar things in ordinary life. The reason why it becomes the material of poetry creation is that the poet has written ordinary and concrete things in combination with his own life experience, which has a value beyond the things themselves.
Poetry can also be called poetry, and the relationship between poetry and song is close. Poetry is like a song, and a song is like a poem. Some of the songs sung by people since ancient times are called poems, which are included in China's poems or China's poems. As an authoritative teaching material, poetry culture has been established and unanimously recognized by all countries in the world. Modern poetry is divided according to the features of ancient poetry, which developed from ancient folk songs. It was not regular at first, and it was divided into songs that could be sung. There are strict writing rules for the poems that turn to sing. This kind of poem is called metrical poem. With the development of the times and the improvement of people's understanding, it is found that metrical poems can't express people's thoughts and feelings well, and new poems, also called free poems, are produced. The export of modern poetry has changed from singing to poetry reading, and the tone of poetry reading is also different from prose novels. Poetry recitation can be staged, and prose novels are rarely published, which is not as attractive as poetry, which is determined by the characteristics of poetry. China's modern poetry is influenced by the national poetry with great influence in the world. We need to know what a good poem looks like in the world, so that we can distinguish famous works from classics. This cosmopolitanism determines China's modern poetry theory. The theory of modern poetry determines how a poem should be written, not to mention the characteristics of poetry and prose novels. Poetry is like a song, and a song is like a poem. Compared with prose novels, poetry cannot express social reality in detail, but it is the most direct, fastest and most refined expression of social reality. The language of poetry is jumping, generally speaking its mind and reflecting people's thoughts and feelings.
