Meng Jiao (75 1-8 14), the word Dongye. Meng Jiao began the imperial examination in his early years, but it was always successful. It was not until he was forty-six years old that he won the Jinshi. At the age of fifty, he was elected as the captain of Liyang. In the ninth year of Yuanhe, Zheng Yuqing Town was promoted to the Yuan Army and played Dongye as the staff of Xing Yuan Army. Dongye heard that he was appointed from Luoyang to Xingyuan, and he died suddenly in Henan. Although he was poor all his life, his life was good and his poetry was good. His poems are very particular about the choice of words and sentences, with lofty and dangerous poetic style, thin and hard and innovative. But in addition to hard words, his poetic language also has an unpretentious side, which is good at metaphor and touching. Meng Jiao, as well as Jia Dao, is known as a "thin suburban island". The Complete Tang Poem contains ten volumes of his poems, and Meng Dongye's poems have been handed down from generation to generation.
Introduction of famous articles:
the song of the homeless
Thread in the hand of a kind-hearted mother, making clothes for her wayward son,
She mended it carefully and thoroughly, fearing that it would delay his time to go home.
Who can say that a filial child like the weak can repay his mother's love like the sunshine in spring?
This poem is a famous work by Meng Jiao, which was highly praised by the ancients. Poetry conveys the mother's great love by carefully sewing clothes for her son who is about to travel far away. In the sentence "but an inch of grass is a little sentimental", the author compares "an inch of grass" to "three rays of spring" and compares her children's filial piety to grass. How can she repay her loving mother's kindness as warm as the spring sunshine? The contrast is sharp, and the language is light and far-reaching.
