"Playing colchicine in the river, I love this red fresh." Lotus is lotus, so antique is also called "love this fresh lotus". Autumn is crisp and autumn waters are boundless. First of all, it gives people a fresh, cool, elegant and pure feeling. At this time, it is comfortable enough to go boating on the river and enjoy the autumn scenery on the river. However, the most fascinating and lovable thing is the slender red lotus. Literally, this is to point out the time and place by writing about the scenery. However, judging from the content contained in the image deposition of poetry, this is not a simple description of scenery, but implies a woman's beautiful figure, pure and elegant, loyal and self-sustaining character. The word "wading" first appeared in Nine Chapters of Chu Ci, which was used by Qu Yuan to express his cynicism, purity, elegance, faithfulness and self-control. Although there is no cynicism here, it is not bad to show women's purity and elegance, stick to chastity and yearn for single-minded love. Liang Yuandi's poem "Picking hibiscus in Fushe River" said: "Ye Zhujuan is difficult to slip, but flowers are easy to fall." Kong Dezhao said in the same poem: "I am tired of picking in the morning and have been lingering for a long time." The new poem "Lotus" also says: "It's a long way to wade the river, with endless meaning." It is all to show women's desire and yearning for single-minded love. Of course, this needs to be understood in conjunction with the next sentence "Love this red and fresh". The third song of Liang's "Four Poems of Imitating the Ancient Times" said: "The icing on the cake is mixed with flowers, and Luo Yi hangs on the Qingjiang River. Ask my son where to go today, picking lotus in Jiangnan. Three thousand miles in western Liaoning, I want to send it for no reason. May you return early, this lotus is fresh. " "Fresh Lotus" completely symbolizes the young and beautiful woman and her pure and loyal character. It can be seen that it is not unreasonable for Li Bai to write "Love this lotus" in antique style. It can be said that this poem of Li Bai has a very close internal relationship with the poem quoted by Wu Yun. From the layout of the whole poem, although the first two sentences are just the beginning, they have laid the foundation for the whole poem in expressing feelings and creating artistic conception.
"He who climbs the lotus gets its pearls, and the ripples are not round." On the big green lotus, glittering and translucent water drops are rolling. After playing with it carefully, I suddenly found that the water droplets in the ripples were not round. This is just a literal understanding. In fact, these two poems subtly hint at the subtle inner activities of women. There is not only the inspiration of Emperor Liang Yuan's "Leaves are hard to slip, flowers are easy to fall", but also a poem similar to "Bowing your head to get lotus seeds, lotus seeds are as clear as water" in the folk song Xizhou in the Southern Dynasties. The poet used the common artistic techniques of Ye Yin and pun in the Southern Dynasties folk songs. The homonym of "lotus" means "climbing lotus", which means hopefully synthesizing double meanings. The "circle" of "acyclic" is also a pun on the circle. Then, from "Climbing the Lotus" to "Not Round", it is no longer a simple description of actions and images, but describes the anxiety and depression caused by the woman's desire to monopolize love. Poetry is a turning point of the soul and emotional ups and downs, from the relaxed and happy appreciation of autumn and lotus to the anxiety and depression after feeling things. Therefore, the following natural transition to express the feelings of missing the "beauty": "The beauty in the colorful clouds wants to give heaven. Acacia has no reason to see, looking forward to the breeze. "
Beauty in Clouds can be said to be inspired by "I can't remember Mandy, but I look up to Hong Fei" in Xizhou Song. However, in Li Bai's poems, "colorful clouds" have vague and elusive images. For example, there are similarities in his Eight Poems of Music in the Palace: "I only worry about singing and dancing colorful clouds". "Want to give a gift to the distant sky" is obviously influenced by "Nineteen Ancient Poems Picking the Lotus River": "Whoever wants to keep it will be Philip Burkart." There is also "Nineteen Ancient Poems, Strange Trees in the Courtyard": "Go to the column to fold its glory and think about it. The incense is full of sleeves, and the road is long and its Xiu Yuan is awkward. " And the influence of Wu Jun's poems such as "Three Thousand Li in Western Liaoning, I want to send it for no reason", so as to express my infinite yearning and helpless strong feelings for distant lovers. The last two sentences are to further express the pain of lovesickness and helplessness. "Looking forward to the Breeze" not only has the description of appearance and psychology, but also echoes the first sentence "playing autumn water by the river", which is unified with the emotion and atmosphere of the whole poem, making the artistic conception of the poem natural and muddy and giving people a strong artistic appeal.
Li Bai's poems are greatly influenced by his predecessors, so it makes sense to classify them into a group of poems that imitate the past. However, in terms of complete and unified artistic conception creation, this poem is not confined to its predecessors and has its own style characteristics. First, although the heroine has never been described positively in the poem, it can be seen from the images and meanings in the poem that the heroine's pursuit and yearning for single-minded love is persistent and her inner feelings are delicate and complicated. Secondly, in terms of poetic changes, the process from enjoying the lotus sutra in autumn to lovesickness is naturally ingenious, without any artificial traces. The poem closely revolves around the brief detail of "climbing the lotus", revealing the subtle change of the heroine's whole heart from "loving this red and fresh" to "lovesickness for no reason" Compared with predecessors, this is more concise and concentrated. The whole poem uses euphemistic and implicit artistic techniques to vividly express the inner feelings of the characters.
