As soon as the spring is over, it is a spring rain, which also means that the rain will be more and more in the future. When it comes to spring rain, you can't help but think of Du Fu's joyful poem "Happy Rain on Spring Night", especially the sentence "Sneak into the night with the wind, moisturize things silently" is to describe the characteristics of spring rain to the fullest.
Spring rain brings people enough warmth and poetry, and also makes some poets can't help but feel the sadness and spring sorrow of the drizzle. The late Tang Dynasty poet Li Shangyin is like this, in the face of spring rain, his heart is full of sorrows, mixed feelings, this "Spring Rain" describes such a scene, its poem:
Lying in the new year white robes, the white door is rare and disobedient.
The Red Chamber looked at each other cold in the rain, and the bead foil lantern returned alone.
The long road should be sad and late in the spring, and the remnants of the sky are still faintly dreaming.
The jade bell is made of how to reach, and a goose flies.
We know that the poems written by Li Shangyin are strangely conceived, lingering, and widely circulated, but some of his poems are very obscure and difficult to understand, so that there is a saying that "poets always love Xikun and hate no one to be Zheng Zhi".
This "Spring Rain" is no exception, we can feel from the words between the lines that this is a love poem, but it is impossible to know who it is written to, which has become an unsolved mystery for many readers.
The poem describes a scene of spring rain and emotion. At this time, the hero is wearing a white jacket, idle at home, looking extremely lonely, simply lying on the bed.
The hero looks out the window at the drizzle and falls into endless thoughts. He carefully recalled the happy time with his beloved woman, however, happiness is always very short-lived, the past is a parting, but it has become permanent, and now, he is alone, feeling the loneliness and loneliness of the world, it is really sad.
In the spring rain, the hero looks at the Red Chamber where the Yi people once lived, a place that was once full of laughter, but today it has become extremely desolate, and the rain curtain swings in the wind.
In this poem, the bright red chamber contrasts sharply with the cold spring rain, red, which is originally warm, but looks forward to the drizzle and feels miserable. The beaded foil, which was originally bright and luxurious, was also eclipsed by the drizzle and candlelight. It turns out that the joys and sorrows in the heart can really change everything.
In reality, you can't be with your beloved woman, you can only meet in your dreams and feel the illusory ethereal scenes. His own infatuation could not be passed on to her, and he could only ask the geese in the long sky to pass on the book for his wild geese.
But, can Hongyan really pass on books? Does Hongyan know where his beloved woman is? Perhaps, a love letter can only comfort the feelings in the heart, and the letter cannot be sent at all. It can be said that "if you want to send a color note and a ruler, where do you know the mountains and rivers?" All kinds of thoughts were exchanged for a sigh.
This poem describes the imagery of the Red Chamber, beaded foil, spring rain, lights and shadows, coupled with a confused state of mind and a vague dream, making the mood of this poem extremely poignant.
