In addition to the trivial daily life, life also needs that touch of beauty and fun.
And poetry is so beautifully integrated into our lives.
Song Ci is known as a literary treasure of the fallen mortals, and every word and sentence of Song Ci contains profound wisdom of life.
It is like a brilliant firework, lighting up our inner world and making life full of poetry.
In the book "Pillow Poems: Fireworks in Song Ci", the writer Yishui carefully included 23 Song poems.
It is classified into three volumes: the flower school, the bold school and the graceful school, and the words are divided into three volumes.
In these poems, there are the poet's deep longing for his hometown, his unyielding loyalty, and his helplessness about the flowers.
Through this book, we can go deep into the temple of poetry and feel the philosophical life contained in it.
Mo Daochun came and went, although Jiangnan is a foreign country
Gu Cheng once said in his poem:
"There is no homeland in the world, and light rain is hometown. ”
If you love your family, even if you walk in the rain, you can feel the breath of your hometown.
The same is true of the poet Wei Zhuang.
In 894 A.D., an old man who was close to his sixtieth birthday could not wait to come to the front of the list, ignoring the crowd and carefully searching for each name.
When he saw the word "Wei Zhuang" on the list, his excitement was indescribable, and tears couldn't help but slide.
After 40 years of scientific research, he finally realized his dream at this moment.
This year, Wei Zhuang was fifty-eight years old, and the former teenager was already full of hair.
Before that, he experienced the Huangchao Uprising and years of war, was separated from his relatives, and finally came to Jiangnan.
The tranquility and beauty of Jiangnan gave him comfort.
The drizzle of spring, the mist of the river, and the picturesque green mountains and clear water made him intoxicated.
Against this background, he wrote the most popular verse:
Everyone says that Jiangnan is good, and tourists only meet Jiangnan Lao. The spring water is blue in the sky, and the boat is painted to listen to the rain.
The people on the edge are like the moon, and the frost and snow are condensed on the wrists. If you are not old, you must return to your hometown, and you must break your intestines when you return to your hometown.
Although his friends persuaded Wei Zhuang to stay in Jiangnan and enjoy the peace and beauty here, he knew very well:
"Although Jiangnan is good, it is not as good as my hometown. ”
When he heard the news that the war in the north had subsided, he did not hesitate to embark on the road back to his hometown.
In the end, he got his wish in the scientific examination and embarked on the road of official career.
No matter where you are, returning to your hometown is the unique feeling of a wandering wanderer.
Just like Sanmao said in "The Sahara Desert":
"Half a lifetime of nostalgia, once I return to this land, I can't help myself. ”
Hometown, carrying our sustenance and affection, is the most solid shelter and armor for us to walk in the troubled world.
It is like our roots, deeply rooted in this land.
Let people let go of their toils when they are tired, and let their souls get peace and rest.
Even if the bright moon hangs high in another country, the brilliance it exudes is difficult to compare with the lights of his hometown.
宁做笔直折断剑，不做弯腰曲存钩
Xin Qiji, born when the mountains and rivers of the Great Song Dynasty were broken, when the north had already fallen into the hands of the Jin.
Although his grandfather was an official in the Kingdom of Jin, he always longed for the reunion of his family and country.
This kind of family and country feelings deeply affected Xin Qiji, so that since he was young, he has taken it as his responsibility to restore the rivers and mountains of the motherland.
Xin Qiji, both civil and military.
On the battlefield, he is a general who wears armor and fights bloodily;
In the poetry world, he is a flying general in the poetry circle who looks forward to the reunification of the motherland.
He fought on the battlefield with his martial arts, resisted gold and killed the enemy;
But he went down in history with his literary reputation and became a poet who has been famous for thousands of years.
However, the decay of the Southern Song Dynasty caused him to be frequently transferred as many as 40 times during the more than 20 years he returned to the Southern Song Dynasty.
Once, he had just received an appointment to be sentenced to death in Zhexi, and he was impeached before he took office.
He was accused:
"Killing people is like mustard, and using money is like mud and sand. ”
These setbacks and accusations made him write his enthusiasm and the grief and indignation of unpaid ambitions into his poems.
He would rather give up his official position than advocate peace.
He once said:
"But the 10,000-word Pingrong policy was exchanged for the owner's tree planting book."
On the one hand, he said:
"Jun is heavy, teach and plant hibiscus. ”
On the other hand, he said:
“醉里挑灯看剑，梦回吹角连营。 ”
This contradictory emotion is a portrayal of his indomitable heart and loyalty to the country.
This is Xin Qiji, a man who would rather die standing than bend down.
At the age of sixty-six, he was full of hope and prepared to participate in the Northern Expedition, but found that it was nothing more than the selfishness of Prime Minister Han Yan, a measure to consolidate his power.
His advice was shelved and he was moved off the front line.
Faced with such a reality, Xin Qiji wrote "Yongyule • Jingkou Beiguting Nostalgia".
The poem contains the remembrance of historical heroes, and also reveals the sadness and indignation that his ambition is difficult to pay.
Cao Yu said in "The Brave Sword":
"יהוה, ”
In this life, people face their own perseverance and multiple choices.
Integrity, as the center of personality, is the spiritual backbone of a gentleman.
When faced with the test of integrity, some people may forget their original intentions, but others stick to their principles and even pay the price of their lives.
No matter how the times change, there are always some people who stick to their bottom line and practice their beliefs and principles all their lives.
The drums are dusk and dawning, and time only relieves people to grow old
Have you ever felt that time is passing in a hurry at a certain moment?
Is it the green silk on your head that gradually dyes white, or do you watch a child grow into a young man?
The poet Jian Yuan said in "The Faint Woods":
"Time makes stories come true, and it also makes people old. ”
We were naïve enough to think that it was too early, but the frustration of life is that eventually all stories will be buried in the past with time.
Time urges people to grow old, and everyone feels the transience and impermanence of life in this circulating time.
As a member of the Northern Song Dynasty, Yan Shu also has a deep feeling about the fleeting nature of time.
He was known as a prodigy since childhood, he was able to write poems and essays at the age of five, and at the age of fourteen, he was exceptionally given the status of a fellow jinshi with his outstanding talent.
In the subsequent assessment of poetry policy, he happened to encounter a topic that he was good at.
However, what sets them apart from other students is:
Yan Shu frankly played to the True Sect, saying that he was already familiar with these topics.
This frankness and honesty won Song Zhenzong's further appreciation, so he made an exception and appointed him to the post of secretary and provincial minister.
However, with the death of Zhenzong, the young Renzong succeeded to the throne, and the power fell into the hands of the prime ministers Ding Wei and Cao Li.
Yan Shu put forward the proposal of the Queen Mother to "listen to the government", which was appreciated by the Queen Mother, but in the end she was degraded because of disagreement with the Queen Mother.
During a trip to the lake, he heard the sound of drums, and his heart stirred with infinite emotion about the passage of time.
So he wrote the "Pride of the Fisherman" that has been passed down through the ages:
"The drums are dark. Time only relieves people to old ......"
In the sound of drums, dusk and early morning alternate, time flies, only to urge people to grow old.
reminds me of what Yu Hua said in "Shouting in the Drizzle":
"Time moves us forward or backward and changes the way we look. ”
Time not only allows us to grow, but also heals our wounds.
It can soothe all the suffering in the world, and at the same time, it quietly changes the way we are.
Whether it's a red cherry or a green plantain, time never stops.
Instead of lamenting the rush of time, it is better to enjoy every beautiful moment.

On the title page of the book "Pillow Poems" it says:
"In the Song Dynasty 800 years ago, lyricists were accustomed to using words to send their feelings.
There are those who are graceful, there are those who are heroic, parting sorrows, and the feelings of family and country are vividly interpreted by the lyricist. ”
There are fireworks in the book, and there is also a bit of poetry.
The poet's profound understanding of life and unremitting exploration of the world inject unique colors and emotional depth into the poems.
These Song words that have fallen into the mortal dust are not only a combination of words, but also contain a profound philosophy of life.
It makes us understand that hometown is our root, integrity is our inner spirit, and the flow of time cannot be changed, and living in the present is the theme of life.
In the new year, may you indulge in the charm of Song Ci and live that unique poetic life.
