The characteristic of lyric poetry is to express one's feelings directly through scenery, and excellent lyric poetry can often stir the melody of the times. Lyrics are divided into carols, love songs, elegies, elegies and pastoral songs due to different contents.
1, mainly expressing emotions. Lyrics mainly express the author's subjective feelings or ambitions, and the description of objective things mainly expresses the author's feelings. For example, Li Sao, the first political lyric poem in ancient China, strongly expresses the poet's patriotic spirit of loving the people and his firm belief in pursuing ideals and light through the description of the poet's lifelong struggle for lofty ideals.
2. Scene fusion. Emotion and scenery are often mixed together. Generally speaking, in ancient poetry, the first half is about scenery, and the second half is about lyric. Between the lines, I write the scenery on the top and express my feelings on the bottom. For example, in Gao Shi's Don't Move Big, the first two sentences show off the scenery: the yellow clouds are thousands of miles away, the sun is dim, the north wind blows geese, and the snow is falling. Rendering the bleak environment when seeing off, the last two sentences are lyrical, expressing the poet's blessing to his friends and his optimistic and heroic mentality.
3. Speak your mind and express your feelings through the scenery. In lyric poetry, it is basically to express one's feelings directly and express one's feelings through scenery. Or the scenery carries feelings, or touches the scenery to create feelings, or expresses feelings with the scenery. For example, Li Bai's "from a pot of wine among the flowers Drinking the Bright Moon Alone" describes the poet's scene of drinking the bright moon alone among flowers, and shows the poet's lonely mood, self-esteem and contempt for powerful people.
