Peach Blossom Poetry of Dalin Temple, and insights

Poetry:

April is the time when the beauty of spring has faded on the plains, but the peach blossoms in the ancient temples on the mountains have just begun to bloom. I often feel sad about the passing of spring and its nowhere to be found. Now, after encountering the spring scenery again, I was overjoyed and suddenly realized: I didn’t expect that spring would come here instead.

Impressions:

The poem is just four sentences long. From the content to the language, there seems to be nothing profound or surprising. ", and the scenery and seasons that are "different from the settlements on the plains" are recorded and described. But if you read it carefully, you will find that this simple and natural poem is written with profound artistic conception and full of interest. The two lines at the beginning of the poem, "The fragrance of April in the world has ended, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple have begun to bloom." It is written that the poet was already in Mengxia when he climbed the mountain. But unexpectedly, in the ancient temple on the mountain, I encountered an unexpected spring scene - a peach blossom in full bloom. From the following sentence "Eternally regretting the return of spring without finding a place", we can know that before the poet arrived, he had resented the rush of spring and was angry and disappointed. So when this unexpected spring scenery bursts into view, it should make people feel so surprised and delighted. The first line of the poem, "The fragrance ends", and the second line, "Beginning to bloom", echo each other in contrast. They are literally chronicles and descriptions of scenes, but they are actually descriptions of jumps in emotions and thoughts - from a melancholy feeling of lamentation, to surprise, joy, and even elation. Moreover, at the beginning of the first sentence, the poet intentionally uses the word "human world", which means that this adventure and this scenic scene bring a special feeling to the poet, that is, as if he suddenly stepped into a world from the real world of the human world. What a fairyland, in another world other than the human world. It was under the trigger of this feeling that the poet's imagination took flight. "I often hate that spring has nowhere to go, and I don't know where to turn." The poet thought that he once cherished and loved spring, and even resented the ruthlessness of spring's departure. However, who knew that he had mistakenly blamed spring, and it turned out that spring had not returned. , just like a child playing hide-and-seek with others, secretly hiding in this place. In this poem, peach blossoms are used to replace the abstract spring scenery, making the spring scenery concrete and tangible, and the image is beautiful. The spring scenery is also personified, and the spring scenery is written as if it really has legs and can turn around and hide. No, it doesn’t just have legs, it actually has a naughty and provocative personality. In this short poem, the spring scenery in nature is described so vividly and concretely, innocently, cutely and vividly. Without the infinite nostalgia and love for spring and the childlike innocence of the poet, it would not have been possible to write it. The beauty of this little poem lies in its novel conception, clever conception, and elegant and humorous language that evokes people's thoughts and is endearing. It can be said to be another treasure among the quatrain poems of the Tang Dynasty.
