The author of "What I See in a Night Book" expresses a feeling of homesickness for relatives and hometown; it also expresses the author's loneliness and loneliness of living in a foreign land and having no fixed place to return.
In the first and second sentences of the poem, Wu leaves are flying, cold sounds are blowing, autumn wind is rustling, and river boats are drifting, which effectively expresses the poet's desolate mood of living in a foreign country and wandering around.
The third and fourth sentences describe the life scenes of children walking around at night and playing tricks on crickets, which naturally easily triggers the poet's imagination. He will remember that his childhood was so innocent, romantic, happy and interesting; he will think of the warmth and beauty of his hometown; he will think of the voices and smiles of his relatives and friends, and a sense of intimacy will arise spontaneously, as if he is back in his hometown or in his childhood.
Appreciation of "What I Saw in a Night Book":
The poem reveals nostalgia for childhood life. Children catching and weaving at night evoke the poet's memories of childhood life. This poem first writes about the sound of the autumn wind, and then writes about the emotion of hearing the sound. The last two sentences are about what is seen outdoors.
The language of this poem is fluent, with clear layers and a turning point in the middle. The sentences seem to be broken but the meaning runs through. The poet is good at euphemistically conveying the hard-to-express taste of travelers on an autumn night through artistic images, without falling into the state of decay. In the end, the scene is used to express feelings, and the words are light and far-reaching, making people chew on them.
