At the time of the spring equinox, the willows are green, the grass is long and the warblers fly, and the beauty of mid-spring is beautiful. At this time, on the warm land, we can finally enjoy the beautiful scenery of the peach red, plum, white and spring yellow, and it seems that the air is filled with a faint fragrance of flowers.
Today's people love spring colors, as everyone knows, the ancients love spring even more, from the end of winter and the beginning of spring, to mid-spring, and then to the late spring, they left behind a classic spring poem, the early Tang Dynasty poet Wang Bo wrote this "Mid-spring Suburbs" is one of them, its poem:
The east garden is weeping willows, and the west weir is falling on the flower.
Looking for three months, the scenery is absolutely nearby.
Birds fly in the village to feel the dawn, fish play in the water to know the spring.
In the courtyard of the first turn, where the dust is.
When Wang Bo wrote this poem, he was in the army of Yuzhou, at this time he was at the trough of his life, facing the good spring light, he had the heart to retreat, so he wrote this poem.
From the title, we know that the poem describes the suburban scenery during the spring equinox.
The first link, a few strokes to outline the wonderful spring scenery. On both sides of the East Garden Trail, a lot of weeping willows are planted, they cover each other, a gust of wind blows, the willows sway with the wind, like a girl dancing. At the ferry port of Xiba, only the petals were seen slowly falling from the trees, as if it had rained petals. The petals fall into the stream and drift off into the distance as the stream follows.
From the budding of grass and trees in early spring, to the blooming flowers of mid-spring, to the falling flowers and flowing water of late spring, Wang Bo enjoyed the feast of spring to the fullest, and he felt that the scenery here was really amazing, more beautiful than any other place.
The birds seem to have a keen grasp of time, and before dawn breaks, the birds begin to fly as much as they want over the village. The fish are also not willing to be lonely, playing in the water.
The sentence "Fish playing in the water knows spring" can't help but think of a poem by Su Shi in "Evening Scenery of Huichongchun River": "Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet". Whether it is fish or ducks, they are the first to feel the change in the temperature of the river, and they are also the first animals to know the spring weather.
Suddenly, there was a gentle spring rain, and the air was exceptionally clear, and there was not a trace of dust. The courtyard of the mountain village is also more quiet.
The phrase "where is the dust of the hustle and bustle" is quite in the style of the sixth generation of Buddhist ancestors, Huineng. Master Huineng once wrote a famous poem "Bodhidharma": "Bodhi has no tree, nor is the mirror a platform." The Dharma is always quiet, where is the dust. ”
For Wang Bo, the blow he had suffered before made him have a transcendent and idyllic mentality, and at this time his mood was extremely calm and truly integrated into nature.
