Fishing in the bay
Fishing in Green Bay spring, deep spring apricot blossom chaos. The pond is clear and the water is shallow, and the lotus is moving and the fish are scattered. Sunset waiting for lovers, WeiZhou green poplar shore.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Chu Guangxi is known for its landscape idylls, and there are very few love poems. </h1>
This five-character ancient "Fishing Bay" is not only a masterpiece with a unique charm in the poem of singing fishing, but also a widely circulated love poem.
The first four sentences seem to be all written scenes and have nothing to do with love, but they gently outline the image of an obsessive young man with a nervous heart, thanks to the use of puns in this poem. Coupled with the beautiful and natural language and delicate feelings, this poem has the essence of the folk songs of the Southern Dynasty.
The composition of puns is mainly the use of consonant words and polysemy, which are often combined with metaphors and symbolisms.
One or two sentences write that the spring color of the fishing bay in the late spring is thick, literally, the "spring" that was originally an adjective has become the object of "fishing" due to the omitted preposition, and it is not interesting to read. A "chaotic" word not only flexibly shows the prosperity and chaos of apricot blossoms, rendering the richness of spring, but also metaphorically the restlessness of men: lovers come or not come? When will it come?
< h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > three or four sentences appear in the main images of the poem, "lotus" (i.e., lotus leaf) and "fish", which are more metaphors for the love of men and women in folk songs. </h1>
For example, the Han Le Fu poem "Jiangnan":
Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaf He Tiantian. Fish play between the lotus leaves. Fish play lotus leaf east, fish play lotus leaf west, fish play lotus leaf south, fish play lotus leaf north.
"Fish" itself has a reproductive color in traditional Chinese folklore and is a symbol of sex. This song is a metaphor for young men and women who love each other and play in the lotus leaves in the lake when they play with lotus flowers in a boat. You can imagine how poetic this scene is in the beautiful water town of Jiangnan.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > "The pond is clear and the water is shallow, and the lotus is moving and the fish are scattered", which is a famous sentence for thousands of years. </h1>
The water of a bay where the protagonist fishes is extremely clear, so it makes people feel extremely shallow, and the lotus leaves of a field in the distance suddenly shake, which is originally caused by the frightened swimming of the fish.
On the surface, it is said that he is fishing, but in fact, the semantic pun, "suspected shallow" no fish, is worried about the road obstacles, the girl may not be able to come. At the sight of "lotus movement", I mistakenly thought that the girl had come to the small boat to fulfill the covenant, and I did not feel a light in front of my eyes; who knew that under a closer look, it turned out to be the fish under the water scattered, and my heart sank, and my disappointment was sudden. This meticulous psychology of joy and excitement and anxiety in the process of waiting for a lover is portrayed very vividly.
Finally, with the vivid shadow of the sunset, the rippling blue waves, and the green poplars as the background, a silhouette in waiting - a man and a small boat tied to the willow bank, like a freeze-frame shot, eternal and beautiful.
