1, enjoy the peony
Liu Yuxi [Tang Dynasty]
The peony in front of the courtyard is enchanting and gorgeous but lacking in bones, and the lotus in the pool is elegant, clean and boring.
Only the peony is the real beauty, which attracted countless people to appreciate at the flowering stage and alarmed the whole Chang 'an City.
Appreciation: This poem is a work of praising peony, and its praise method is to suppress others and promote the book. The poet does not describe the beauty of peony from the front, but writes peony from the side. At the beginning of the poem, comment on peony and lotus first. Peony and lotus are very popular flowers. The poet, on the other hand, praised the peony with "peony without demon" and "pure and affectionate lotus" to set off its high standard and beautiful charm.
2. "Drinking and Watching Peony"
Liu Yuxi [Tang Dynasty]
Today, I would like to get drunk after drinking and drinking.
But there is one thing to worry about, not for the elderly.
Appreciation: In the seemingly playful context, the poet made us feel the fragility of life and the despair that we can never control with his clear and pitiful style. Flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year! Perhaps, God is so fond of playing tricks on people.
3. Enjoy peony in Nan Shu, Xi 'an.
Liu Yuxi [Tang Dynasty]
How can you meet such beautiful flowers as peony in the world, which bloom layer by layer, and layer by layer, like Zengcheng, the western king Mu?
With such a good color, the sky should make you open your heart and let a hundred flowers blossom!
Appreciation: Although Liu Yuxi's peony poems still personify flowers, they are not simple repetitions, but higher-level aesthetic photos. He sublimated his appreciation and feeling of the beauty and splendor of peony into a spiritual grasp of the female personality image, that is, the combination of form, spirit and emotion. His love has personality and affection, and contains broader and deeper aesthetic significance.
