From the ancient poem "Children Fishing", it is a poem by Hu Lingneng, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. This poem describes a child's concentration in fishing by the water. Through the description of typical details, the children's earnest innocence and childlike interest are vividly reproduced.
A child with unkempt hair is learning to fish, sitting sideways on the moss, and the green grass sets off his figure. When someone asks for directions, he waves at a distance, afraid to answer loudly for fear that the fish will be scared away.
Appreciation of ancient poetry:
When passers-by asked, the children did not dare to answer the fish, waving at a distance and not answering. This is a description of children from two aspects: action and psychology, with calculation, strategy, alertness and intelligence. The reason why children use actions instead of answers is that they are afraid of scaring the fish away. The child's action is "waving from a distance", which shows that the child is not indifferent to the questions of passers-by.
How children whisper to passers-by after "waving" is the imagination of readers, and there is no need for poets to explain. So after explaining the reason of "waving from afar", this poem came to an abrupt end.
This poem about children's fishing has a special interest. There is no gorgeous color and deliberate carving in the poem, just like a beautiful hibiscus, which reveals a little innocence, infinite childlike interest and a little concentration in the plain and simple narrative.
