On the most beautiful April day in the world, on such a rainy night in spring, it is especially suitable to calm down, read poetry quietly in the hut overflowing with the fragrance of tea, and feel comfortable and beautiful. So, in the warm rain and mist, I pillowed the undulating midnight with the sound of frogs, lingering in Liu Fuyun's "Poetry Fan Yiyue".
"Poetry Lovers" is a collection of modern poetry published by Liu Fuyun in his early years, and he has injected new vitality into contemporary poetry creation with his profound poetry and unique artistic style. In this work, the poet captures the often overlooked fragments of life and beautiful moments in life with delicate brushstrokes and keen observation, and presents them to readers in the form of poetry, so that readers can feel endless pleasure in tasting the charming poetry.
Looking at the world of Liu Fuyun's poetry, you will find that this is the exploration of diverse themes and the expression of emotions. The theme not only covers the feelings of family and country, deep affection, homesickness, compassion and warmth, love and love, but also life philosophy, which fully demonstrates the poet's rich emotional world and profound thinking.

I smell the fragrance of the motherland from the pineapple trees / under the sunshine / revealing the sweet, fragrant and full flesh / the golden pineapple / like a golden sunflower / against the earth - excerpt from "Smell the Fragrance of the Motherland".
The poet began his poetic journey with a poem "Smell the Fragrance of the Motherland". This text paints a beautiful picture, full of the poet's love and praise for his homeland. Born in western Guangdong, Liu Fuyun skillfully uses the pineapple from his hometown as an emotional bond to tie patriotism and homesickness.
As we all know, sunflowers often symbolize hope and light in Chinese culture. In the poem, Liu Fuyun compares the golden pineapple to a sunflower, which not only shows the joy of the harvest with the ripeness of the pineapple, but also metaphorizes the prosperity and prosperity of the motherland, thus expressing the poet's love and praise for the motherland, and also reflecting the deep feelings between the motherland and the people.

In the poetry collection "Poetry Fan Yiyue", Liu Fuyun created a number of works for his mother with deep affection. Such as "Mother Disappeared on the Road to Spring", "The Light of Mother's Love", "Write Mother Again", "Mother with a Hoe" and so on. These poetic words exude a strong longing, there is a mother's deep love for her son, and the poet's deep nostalgia for her mother, the deepest mother-child love in the world is blended together, so the most gentle and beautiful music is played between heaven and earth.
Mother disappeared on the road to the coming of spring / Disappeared in the season when thousands of neem trees bloomed / Disappeared on the hill where the mountain flowers will bloom / Mother, can no longer be like us / Appreciate this fairyland on earth in spring - excerpt from "Mother Disappeared on the Road to Spring".
Mother passed away just as spring was approaching, when the neem trees and mountain flowers were about to bloom. This description is very picturesque, the loss of his dearest mother in a beautiful spring scene is an indescribable poignant, and it also expresses the poet's deep grief when he loses his loved one, so that the reader is moved, deeply sad and lost.
Because of deep love, the emotion is deeper and deeper. Liu Fuyun contrasts the beautiful scene of spring with the sadness of his mother's departure, and highlights his nostalgia and sorrow for his mother. It's not so much that my mother can't appreciate this beautiful spring as much as we do, but more because "we" can no longer see our beloved mother, and we are even more lonely and sad.

Continue to wander on the stormy road in another country/Doomed me to go farther and farther away from home/The longing for Tiantou Village has long been piled up in my heart/Like crazy spring grass clipping-excerpt from "On the Wandering Road".
In the early 90s of the 20th century, Liu Fuyun was still childish, and he went to the Pearl River Delta to pursue his dream with a dream. Working hard in a strange city, but experiencing hardships that ordinary people can't understand, when the ideal encounters the mockery of reality, the poet sighs the irresistibility of fate in hardship and helplessness. So when he was frustrated, he remembered his carefree life in Tiantou Village, his parents and fellow villagers in Tiantou Village, and his close childhood partners...... Floating between dreams and reality, there is the loss and helplessness of "a thousand sails are all guests, and everyone knows who knows the lead", so as to have a deep attachment to his hometown, vividly analyze the poet's living situation in the past, and profoundly describe his homesickness when he was frustrated.
From the day I left home/I was estranged from my hometown/Like a dandelion blown by the north wind/Drifting away/Others miss/Remembered as the warmest sun/Attachment/And I lived in the dreams of my relatives/Today, it will be the same in the future-Excerpt from "Hometown"
Liu Fuyun, like many migrant workers, has mixed feelings about his hometown. Yes, since the day we left home, we have been alienated from our hometown, like a light dandelion, once the wind rises, our hometown becomes a hometown that we can never go back to. This song "Hometown" can resonate with readers because most of the post-70s generations have been in the same situation. For hometown, it is the eternal theme in the hearts of wanderers, full of the pain of parting, the hardships of dreaming, the difficulty of life and the deep nostalgia and attachment to hometown.

I looked in the mirror again and again / I saw that my eye sockets were sunken a lot more / The wrinkles have grown a lot / Let me lament the ruthlessness of life / I see myself grimacing differently / I think it's funny and funny / But I can't laugh / I want to smash the weird mirror with a punch / Or let it scratch my fingers / Stain the invisible time with blood / Let history bear witness / Please see the sun / This can swallow people's years / How eerie and terrifying - Untitled
This "Untitled" is a poem written by Liu Fuyun to Zhang Haichao, and it is the most shocking poem in "Poetry Fan Yiyue". I even think that this poem is the most powerful masterpiece in the entire poetry collection, and it is no exaggeration to say that this may also be the insurmountable pinnacle of Liu Fuyun's poetry creation.
According to relevant information, on July 17, 2009, Zhang Haichao, a migrant worker in Xinmi, Henan Province, expressed his pathos of self-mutilating "open chest and lungs", reflecting the difficulty of protecting the rights of workers with occupational diseases that year. When the scalpel cut through his exhausted body, the shadow of pneumoconiosis was exposed. With a unique perspective and profound emotions, the poet successfully depicts Zhang Haichao's life predicament and fighting spirit. Through his deeply rooted depictions and strong emotional expressions, he allows readers to deeply experience the helplessness and silent struggle against fate of the people at the bottom of the society, and makes the society pay more attention to their rights and interests in survival. This poem, full of humanistic care and deep thinking, is worthy of in-depth reading and reflection.
Liu Fuyun's emotions are rich and his heart is kind. In his poetic works, we can see him speaking out for migrant workers who are struggling at the bottom of society, and writing touching poems for the people who are busy in the crevices of survival with compassion. In his collection of poems, we see the shadows of water delivery workers, building washers, dishwashers, and assembly line workers, and even the despair and madness in the eyes of Liu Hanhuang, who has no way to defend his rights and slash the three unscrupulous administrators. Liu Fuyun first entered the literary world as a working poet, he has rich life experience and rich creative experience, so he can better understand their pain and helplessness, so that he uses the beauty of poetry to overcome their indescribable hardship.

You are growing up in the barren land/Blooming humble and pale yellow flowers/Like me as a peasant child/In a foreign city/Your expression always has to smile at the things of the world/Greet the morning and twilight under the noses of others/Say the best words/Behind the scenes, you have to work hard energetically/With your weak hand/Push away a lot of shackles/Advance to a tomorrow full of dreams-excerpt from "Peanuts"
In the poetry collection "Poetry Fan Yiyue", Liu Fuyun uses metaphor the most rhetorical device, which not only enriches the connotation of the poem, but also enhances its artistic value through subtle and profound artistic conception.
In the poem "Peanuts", the poet metaphorizes migrant workers as peanuts, because growing up in the countryside is like a small yellow flower blooming on a barren land, and humility is surging in the blood. In the glittering bustling city, they carefully live in a foreign land that does not belong to them, and the excessive caution and inferiority engraved in their bones make them unable to gain a sense of belonging and pride in the bustling. Therefore, through the power of poetry, Liu Fuyun encouraged them to keep a smile like a spring breeze, bravely face all kinds of challenges in the world, and move forward towards a hopeful tomorrow no matter how difficult life is. Like peanuts, in the face of the harsh living environment, we must have firm beliefs, move forward bravely, and continue to pursue our dreams. It is precisely with such belief that Liu Fuyun has become today.
In addition, Liu Fuyun also uses metaphors to expose social chaos. For example, he likened the people who relied on the "protective umbrella" to act recklessly as "The Hedgehog" that no one dared to touch; he likened the people who saw the wind and steered the rudder to the "Cats" who forgot their righteousness; compared the friends who rebelled in the sight of righteousness to "Dogs"; and the people who did not measure themselves to the "Ice Cream" in the sun; and he even used "Seeing a Doctor" to expose the social chaos and the worrisome social situation with just a few lines of poetry.
Yes, Liu Fuyun is such a poet who dares to speak, write, love, and hate. He writes about patriotism, his eyes are full of love, he writes about family affection, his paper is full of affection, he writes about love, he expresses sweetness and bitterness to the fullest, and when he writes about the philosophy of life, he guides readers to think about the meaning and value of life with a unique perspective and profound thinking.
In "Poetry Fans", Liu Fuyun sincerely conveys his emotions to readers through the form of poetry. This sincere expression of emotion not only enhances the appeal of the poem, but also makes the reader resonate and emotionally resonate in the reading process, so that people can feel the depth and charm of poetry, and feel his love for life and concern for human nature in the taste, so that we can see a different Liu Fuyun.
