Clouds floated out of the window.

Miscellaneous poems in the mountains
What you see-Shan Lan in the twilight, sandwiched between bamboo-is a picture of a slow sunset.
Birds fly leisurely under the eaves of others, and a faint cloud slowly floats out of the window.

Enjoy 1:
These four landscape poems have their own styles. Before each sentence, if we read the words "Look at that" in one breath, a wonderful picture will appear before our eyes and a beautiful music will ring. Du Fu's quatrains: "Two orioles sing green willows, and a row of egrets go up to the sky. The window contains autumn snow in Xiling, and the Wu Dong Wan Li boat stops at the door. " Looking around, I feel deeply, combining different scenery to form a special environment, giving people a fresh feeling. That's the style.
Appreciation 2:
The poem describes the poet's interesting life in the mountains: surrounded by mountains, bamboo and wood are flourishing, birds are flying on the eaves of others, and clouds are floating outside the window. This kind of seclusion exhausted the dust of the world and expressed the poet's comfortable and leisurely mood casually and vividly.
The whole poem is only four short sentences, one sentence and one scene, but each sentence is inseparable from the theme of "in the mountains", which is a common phenomenon in quiet mountains. When the sun sets, you can only see the oblique glow of its veins in the cracks of the bamboo forest, indicating that the bamboo forest is dense and lush, and the first two sentences of the fun in the mountains have been heard. Birds come and go on the eaves, and white clouds pass through the window, all of which show that the poet lives on a high and steep terrain, while in the Maolin bamboo cultivation, birds always live in front of and behind his eaves, which reflects the tranquility and detachment of the mountain residence, away from the hubbub.
Shen Deqian once said this poem: "Four sentences about scenery are unique." It means that this little poem concentrates all the pen and ink on the scenery, which is different from the general structure from scenery to characters or from scenery to lyric, and opens up a new format. In fact, although each of these four sentences is a scene, people are always in it. For example, "seeing" and "peeking" in the first two sentences all indicate that there is someone behind the scenes, and the scene written is only seen by people, not purely objective description. As for "on the roof" and "in the window" in three or four sentences, people's existence is more clearly revealed. Moreover, the poet's joy in living in the mountains has been hinted at in his landscape writing, and his calm and detached state of mind can also be seen here.
Wu Jun is an expert in writing landscapes. The reason why these four short poems can outline the characteristics of Shan Jutu lies in the author's proper choice of observation angle. Smoke is seen by mountains, sunset is seen by bamboo, birds are on the eaves, and clouds are outside the window. In this way, Shan Lan, Sunset, Birds and Clouds were written in an unusual way, which brought the subjective color that the poet saw in Shan Jutu and had typical significance. It's like photography, which takes the same image, but everyone has his own opinion. A frame of successful works can always capture the characteristics and interest of the scenery from a novel and ingenious angle, and so can Wu Jun's imitation of the landscape.

Wang Wei (70 1-76 1), a famous poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, was famous and successful, with a high official and a generous position. He was originally from Qi (now Qixian, Shanxi), moved to Yongji, Shanxi, believed in Buddhism, and lived in Lantian in his later years. He was of Han nationality. He is good at drawing figures, bamboos and landscapes. There are two kinds of landscapes recorded by the Tang people: one is similar to Li's father and son, the other is painted by breaking ink, and the latter is his masterpiece. Unfortunately, no original works have been handed down from generation to generation. The Snow Stream Map and Jinan Mansion handed down to him are not original works. Su Shi commented that "there are paintings in poetry; Look at the picture, there are poems in the picture. " He is a representative of the pastoral poetry school in Tang Dynasty. Kaiyuan Jinshi He served as Da Lecheng and You Shiyi. When An Lushan rebelled, he was forced to assume a false post. He has made great achievements in poetry and painting. Su Dongpo praised him for "painting in poetry and poetry in painting", especially for his achievements in landscape poetry. Together with Meng Haoran, they are called "Wang Meng". In his later years, he was careless about his official career and devoted himself to being a Buddha. Later, he was called "Shi Fo".
Wang Wei was very literary when he was a teenager. In the ninth year of Kaiyuan (72 1), he was the first scholar, and he was very happy. I joined the army in Jeju for some reason. After returning to Chang 'an. In the 22nd year of Kaiyuan, Zhang Jiuling was appointed as the secretariat, and Wang Wei retired to the right. At that time, he wrote a poem "Dedicating the Beginning to Prosper the People", praising Zhang Jiuling's political views against planting party member for personal gain and abusing his title, which reflected his mood of demanding at that time. In the twenty-four years (736), Zhang Jiuling stopped fighting, and the following year, Jingzhou was reduced to a long history, and Li was appointed as the secretariat, which was the turning point of Xuanzong's politics from bright to dark. Wang Wei was depressed about Zhang Jiuling's demotion, but he didn't quit the officialdom. In the 25th year of Kaiyuan, he was ordered to visit Cui, our envoy from Hexi. Later, he learned from the temple history that Wang Wei's official position was gradually promoted. Before the Anshi Rebellion, the government helped this matter. On the one hand, he was tired and worried about the officialdom at that time, but on the other hand, he was attached to the stack and could not leave decisively. So when in Rome, do as the Romans do, and live a semi-official and semi-secluded life for a long time.
He used to believe in Buddhism. At this time, with the increasing negative thoughts, his Buddhist beliefs are also developing day by day. When he was young, he used to live in a mountain forest. After middle age, he once lived in Zhong Nanshan. Later, he found jobs in Wangchuan, Lantian and Song. So he travels among them with his good friend Pei Di and likes to write poems. In the fifteenth year of Tianbao (756), the Anshi rebels captured Chang 'an, Xuanzong entered Shu, and Wang Wei was captured by the rebels. Pretending to be ill after taking medicine, he was sent to Luoyang as a fake official. After the recovery of the two capitals, those who suffered from false jobs were convicted at different levels. He was praised by Su Zong for a poem "Ningbichi" that missed the Tang Dynasty, and his brother Wang Jin had a high official position, so he was only demoted to Prince Zhongyun, and later he moved something and finally became a senior official.

[Edit this paragraph] Appreciation (1)
This is a poem describing the hermit's interest in leisure life. Poetry uses words to create language and scenery (secluded, deep forest and bright moon), while writing people (sitting alone, playing the piano and whistling) is extremely unremarkable. However, its beauty lies in its natural and simple style, which depicts the fresh and attractive artistic conception of the secluded forest on a moonlit night, blends the scene into one, contains the special artistic charm of beauty, and has become a masterpiece through the ages. Playing the piano and whistling reflects the silence of the bamboo forest on a moonlit night, and the darkness of the deep forest is reflected by the light and shadow of the bright moon. The surface seems dull and seemingly casual, but in fact it is ingenious.
This poem also shows a state of tranquility. In the first two sentences, the poet sat alone in the deep and dense bamboo forest, playing the strings and blowing a long whistle. In fact, whether "playing the piano" or "whistling" reflects the poet's elegant and free-spirited temperament, which is not easy to cause others to sing. So the last two sentences said, "It's too light for anyone to hear except my comrade, Mingyue." I live in a secluded forest, and I don't feel lonely because the bright moon still shines on me all the time. The personification technique is used here, and the bright moon sprinkled with Yin Hui is regarded as a bosom friend, which shows the poet's novel and unique imagination. The style of the whole poem is quiet and leisurely, as if the poet's mood and natural scenery are integrated.
This little poem has four sentences. Looking at it separately, there is neither touching scenery nor touching love; I can't find out which word is poetic eye, and it's hard to say which sentence is warning.
In describing the scenery in the poem, only six words are used to form three words, namely "secluded place", "deep forest" and "bright moon". For the moon that shines on the earth, there is nothing new and ingenious about using the word "Ming" to describe its brightness. It's a common saying. As for the first sentence of "Huang" and the third sentence of "Lin", they are actually the same thing, and they all repeat the bamboo forest where the poet lives, adding the words "secluded" and "deep" in front of the bamboo forest, but the explanation is neither "bamboo with three poles and two poles" as mentioned in Yu Xin's Xiao Yuan Fu, nor "bamboo with green water hills" as mentioned by Liu Zongwu. Here, it seems that the scene in front of us is written at will, and there is no effort to describe and describe it.
When writing about people's activities in poetry, only six words are used to form three words, namely, "sitting alone", "playing the piano" and "whistling". For the characters, they didn't describe how they played Xiao Shu, and they didn't express their emotions. For the piano sound and whistle, I didn't spend any ink to write its timbre and sound.
On the surface, the words used in the four poems are unremarkable. But when the four poems are combined together, they have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they contain a special artistic charm. The beauty of a masterpiece in Wang Wei's "Wang Chuan Bie Ji" lies in its naturally attractive artistic conception. It does not win with words, but regards beauty as a whole. Its beauty lies in its absence. To appreciate and appreciate its beauty, we should take its appearance as its spirit, and its spirit is contained in the artistic conception. As far as artistic conception is concerned, it not only gives people the feeling of "secluded amorous feelings" ("My Servant Poems"), but also makes people feel that the scenery of the secluded forest on this moonlit night is so ethereal and clear, and the people who play the piano and shout during it are so carefree, dusty and seamless. On the other hand, in language, we can see the flavor from nature, from plain high rhyme. Its natural and simple style beauty and artistic conception beauty complement each other.
It is conceivable that the poet met the quiet nature of the bamboo forest and the bright moon itself in a state of calm and clear mind, and he wrote a book. The formation of poetic artistic conception depends entirely on the consistency between the character's mind and the internal quality of the scenery written, without the help of external hue. Therefore, when I am integrated with things, feelings and scenery, the poet can, as Si Kongtu said in Poetry 10 Nature, "look up, don't take all the neighbors, go their own way, and become spring scenery" and enter the artistic world of "thin words and feelings, leisurely days". Of course, when we say "everywhere" here, we don't mean that poets have no choice but to choose materials easily; When we say "start a spring" here, we don't mean that the poet didn't make arrangements when he was in charge, but he believed it. The poem describes the surrounding scenery, choosing bamboo forests and bright moons, which is consistent with the quiet environment to be expressed; Express your feelings in poetry, one chooses to play the piano and whistle, and then the other expresses it with the tranquility and clarity of mind. This is the immediate matter, and the reason why he wrote this scene and this matter has his own mature poetic thought. Judging from the combination of the whole poem, the poet wrote a piano and whistle while writing a secluded forest on a moonlit night, expressing tranquility with his voice. As for the last sentence of the poem, it not only contrasts with the "people don't know" in the previous sentence, but also plays a role in breaking the dark night. The contrast between these sounds and silence, as well as light and shadow, is ingenious and ingenious in arrangement. There are always four sentences in this little poem. Looking at it separately, there is neither touching scenery nor touching love; I can't find which word is ... "This is quoted from Chen Bangyan's Appreciation Dictionary of Tang Poetry by Shanghai Dictionary Publishing House, page 182. We should not quote other people's articles without a source, which is the minimum respect for the author and the minimum principle of writing.
2. "I am alone in the dense bamboo, playing the piano and humming a song. The voice is so low that no one can hear it except my partner Mingyue. " This is one of the quatrains in Wang Wei's Collection of Wangchuan in his later years.
Let's look at the first two sentences: "I am leaning alone in the dense bamboo, playing the pipa and humming." Hey, bamboo forest also; Small, pinch your mouth and be quiet. The poet believed in Buddhism in his early years, his thoughts were detached and his career was bumpy. After forty, I lived a semi-official and semi-secluded life. As he himself said, "As time goes by, give me peace and get rid of everything." Therefore, I often sit alone in the deep bamboo forest, playing the guqin and expressing my lonely feelings. But the piano didn't seem to be enough to vent my depression, so I gave a long whistle. There is an allusion here. According to Liu Yiqing's Shi Shuo Xin Yu? "Qi Yi" contains: "Ruan infantry roared, and the sound shocked a hundred paces." Ruan Infantry is Ruan Ji. He was one of the famous "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest" in the Han and Wei Dynasties. He and Ji Kang were dissatisfied with the feudal ethics at that time and the struggle for power and money within the ruling class. They often gather in bamboo forests to express their wishes. Ruan Ji whistled in the bamboo forest and heard a hundred paces, which was also called a beautiful talk. Wang Wei lives in the bamboo forest and plays the role of Ruan Ji, comparing himself with Ruan Ji and expressing his dissatisfaction with power rape. Bamboo's character, leaves like arrows, quality like hard stone, dry can be broken without changing its straightness, and the body can be burned without destroying its knots. The poet sitting alone in the secluded bamboo is obviously showing that he has the same integrity as bamboo.
Look at the last two sentences: "It's too light for anyone to hear except my comrade-in-arms Mingyue." This is to further exaggerate the lonely mood and atmosphere. The moon shines, not only to show that you have been sitting for a long time, but also to show that only the moon in the sky is a confidant. The bright moon is a symbol of noble people. It shines alone in the blue sky and blue sea. Is it like a poet? Therefore, Wang Wei is regarded as a close "friend". This writing is also good for describing natural scenery. The quiet forest makes people feel dark green, lonely and gloomy, and the picture is dim. Now suddenly, the dark bamboo forest is sprinkled with a layer of silvery white by "except my comrades, the bright moon" This change seems to add a sense of life, a layer of poetry and loneliness, and the bamboo forest, the bright moon and the poet all blend into a quiet and harmonious night.
This short poem, with only 20 words, is full of scenery and feelings (static scenery and lonely feelings), vivid (the sound of the piano whistling and the color of Lin Yue), static and dynamic (whistling while sitting alone), real and imaginary (the first two sentences are actually the scenery, the last two sentences are empty for their feelings), and the opposites are unified and set each other off. We read this poem as if we were enjoying a three-dimensional and changeable landscape painting of characters, which is really the author's masterpiece.
