Every day poetry hunting, pay attention to the reading dogs!
Spring has a hundred flowers, autumn has a moon, summer has a cool breeze and winter has snow. In winter, the cold is overwhelming, the earth is desolate, and everything is desolate, and the only pleasant scenery that can be talked about is plum blossoms and snowflakes. Therefore, the ancient literati wrote poems in winter only snow and mei ke chanted one or two.
Today we will talk about the snow in ancient poetry. Snow is born white, the color is single, but the posture is thousands, small snow like willows, heavy snow is reckless, wind and snow are desolate and lonely, mountain snow is like a head cover, tree snow is like a flower... The variety of forms gave birth to the poet's rich imagination.
Tao Yuanming's snow is "pouring out of the ears without hope, and it is clean in the eyes", Wang Wei wrote that "the air is deep and quiet, the accumulation of plains is wide", Cen Shen is described as "a thousand trees and pear blossoms", Li Bai exaggerated: "The earth is white and the wind is cold, and the snowflakes are as big as hands", "It should be the heavenly immortals who are drunk, and the white clouds are crushed by the report", and the great man's "mountain dancing silver snake, the original chi wax elephant" and so on. There are many great poems about snow.
Today we will enjoy 5 small poems about snow in Tang poems:
Looking at the snow in the south
Don Zu Yong
Finally Nanyin Ridge Show,
Snow floats in the clouds.
Lin indicates the color of Ji,
The city is increasingly cold.
Zu Yong's "Final South Looking at Yu Xue" was originally a test poem when taking part in a scientific examination, when the exam stipulated that a twelve-sentence five-sentence arrangement was written under the title of "Final South Looking at Yu Xue", but Zu Yong only wrote four sentences and handed in the paper. The examiner asked him why he didn't continue writing? Zu Yong replied: The meaning is perfect!
Indeed, "The Show of the Yin Mountains in the End of the South, the Snow Floating in the Clouds" in just 10 words summarizes the beauty of the Zhongnan Mountain, and the beauty of the snow on the top of the mountain like floating clouds. A sentence "The forest shows the color of the mountain" shows a different scene illuminated by the snow under the sunset, and the sentence "The twilight in the city increases" from the senses to set off the cold light of the yu snow in the south.
The first three sentences, write what you see in "Looking", the last sentence, write the feeling in "Hope", and do your best to "look at the remaining snow in the south", and it is no wonder that this poem is listed with Tao Yuanming's "December of the Age of Decay" and Wang Wei's "Winter Evening to Snow" as the best works of Wing Xue! Unfortunately, this poem did not meet the rules of the imperial examination, and Zu Yong finally fell off the list.
Host of Hibiscus Mountain
Tang Liu Changqing
Twilight cangshan far away,
The cold white house is poor.
Chai Men smell the barking of dogs,
Wind and snow return on the night.
This poem "The Master of Furong Mountain in the Snow" can be said to be the most desolate song in Tang poetry. This poem is not deliberately singing snow, the first two sentences write scenes, depicting the desolate and desolate mountain forest snow scene of the cold house and the twilight of the Cangshan Mountain, although it is a short cross, it is full of energy, and the snow scene of the Cangshan Mountain is like a freehand painting.
The last two sentences, "Chai Men smell the dogs barking, and the wind and snow return to the people at night", write the sounds heard: knocking on the door, the sound of the chai door opening and closing, the answer of the family, the sound of the wind and snow whistling, without a trace of writing the scene, but using the sound to outline a scene of the half-return of the wind and snow night! The whole poem reads as if you are in the middle of the barren mountains where the wind and snow are whistling, and feel the empty, desolate and desolate scene in the poem. Extremely desolate, the mood is long, and the charm is endless!
Night snow
Don Bai Juyi
The pillow is cold,
See the window again.
The night knows the snow is heavy,
When you hear the sound of bamboo folding.
One of the more unique kinds of Yongxue poems is the night snow poem, but there are not many poems about night snow, only because the snow is silent and tasteless, it is almost difficult to see the snow at night, and the image of snow cannot be captured, so few poets write night snow. But Bai Juyi's song is very novel and unique, he jumped out of the front depiction of the mortar, using the side foil, conveying a night snow.
"Already surprised pillow cold" is written from the feeling of people, and the night snow is great through the cold point. Immediately after "Seeing the Window Bright" further writes about the night snow from a visual point of view, the snow falls heavily and piles up in the courtyard, which will make the dark night appear bright.
The last two sentences change the angle of hearing: "The night knows the snow is heavy, and when you hear the sound of bamboo folding"! Snowflakes are light, but heavy snow is only snow, but it is heavy, and it can crush the thick branches of trees. The sound of snow crushing bamboo branches is heard in the poet's ears, which shows that the snow not only falls heavily, but also lasts for a long time.
This "Night Snow" is very easy to read and simple, in fact, it advances layer by layer, from the three levels of touch, vision, and hearing, a wave of twists and turns, the appearance of snow and snow, presenting a snow night wrapped in silver!
snow
Don Rohan
Exhaust the Harvest Years,
What a good year.
There are poor people in Chang'an,
For Rui should not be much.
Since ancient times, it has been said that "Ruixue Mega Year", but the late Tang Dynasty poet Luo Yin used it the opposite: "It is not advisable to be more for Rui"! why? The reason is that "there are poor people in Chang'an"!
For the literati and inkers, snow is a beautiful scenery, and for farmers who have land to cultivate, "Ruixue Mega Year". But for the poor people living on the streets, without clothes and food in Chang'an City, snow is a disaster! Don't you smell "Zhumen wine meat stinky road has frozen bones"! Luo Yin's "Snow" looks like Yongxue, but in fact it satirizes social reality, one night "Ruixue", I don't know how many "frozen bones" there are in Chang'an City!
Jiang Xue
Don Liu Zongyuan
A thousand mountain birds fly away,
Ten thousand trails disappeared.
Lonely Boat,
Fishing alone in the snow of the Cold River.
The last poem of Liu Zongyuan's "Jiang Xue" can be described as the finale of the Tang poem to write about snow, in this poem, everything that covers everything and covers everything is snow, the mountain is snow, the road is snow, "thousand mountains" and "ten thousand paths" are snow, even on the "lonely boat" and "Stalk", it is also snow. Snow is everywhere, water and sky are not distinguished, up and down the sky is a vast piece, such a snowy landscape, vast and wide, cold and lonely, can be described as unique in Tang poetry.
And this poem is not a single Wing Xue, but Wing Xue will be mountains, birds, paths, people, boats, Weng, river, all kinds of intentions are linked, the image of "lonely boat, lonely fishing in the cold river snow" prominent in this vast snow scene, the snow scenery sets off people's loneliness, and "lonely", "alone" and "alone" and contrast the cold of the snow, forming a unique spiritual picture, between the lines is full of snow chill, people's loneliness, can be described as the absolute sentence in the sentence! This song "Jiang Xue" is simply amazing!
