In the fifth year of middle school (851), the death of Li Shangyin's original partner Wang Shi was a double blow for the poet, because of the loss of his previous life, it had made him disheartened; and now the departure of his wife made him even more sad, for which Li Shangyin created a lot of mourning poems, each capital was affectionate, the pain of lovesickness, and the thought of his wife. Wang Shi is not only beautiful, but also knowledgeable, the two people are affectionate, but Providence makes people, and the loss of life and emotions makes Li Shangyin once in trouble.
Li Shangyin's life was actually very unfortunate, although he was talented and a rare talent, but throughout his life, he was poor and did not be reused. In order to live, Li Shangyin had to bow his head and go to various places to serve as a staff member, so in the spring of the same year, in order to earn a living, he went to Dongchuan and began the last and longest staff career in his life. Before leaving, he also created a poem "February 2nd", the whole poem is extremely sad, in addition to telling the pain of his dead wife, there is also a description of his own miserable life.
In the face of his wife's departure, Li Shangyin has been cut off, and in real life, he must leave his hometown, and that emotional gap makes him sad. In this poem "February 2nd", Li Shangyin takes the beautiful spring color as the starting point, thus reflecting the sorrow of melancholy and helplessness for reality; it is also this unique way of description that makes the whole poetry lofty and far-reaching, and there is also an indescribable sense of loneliness, which makes people feel liver and intestines after reading.
On February 2, the river rises, and the east wind is warm and blowing. Flower whiskers and willow eyes are rogue, and purple butterflies and wasps are affectionate. Wanli recalls returning to Yuan Liangjing and engaging in the Yafu camp for three years. The new beach is not enlightened to tourists, and the sound of rain at night is more styled.
Every year on February 2, commonly known as "Dragon Head", people sacrifice to pray for good wind and rain, and also meet a group of friends to enjoy the spring. In this poem, Li Shangyin combines the beauty of spring colors and a lonely state of mind, so in the first link, this point is highlighted: "On the second day of February, the river rises, and the east wind is warm and blowing." "On the day of February 2nd, a person walked to the river in the spring, standing in this place, the spring breeze and warm daylight made people feel warm, and from time to time there was a beautiful music sound, which immediately made the spring full of vitality.
In the four sentences of the jaw joint and the neck link, the beauty of spring color is once again described, but what is revealed between the lines is a faint sadness, and the sorrow of the poet at that time; the flowers are like whiskers, the willow branches that have just grown buds, as if they are graceful and colorful, purple flowers, and colorful butterflies, and yellow bees, hovering above it, more affectionate, long-lasting, and the spring scenery is so charming that people are intoxicated.
Li Shangyin still cleverly quoted allusions in the neck link, in which "Yuanliangjing" refers to Tao Yuanming's former residence, Yuanliang is its character, so later generations replaced Tao Yuanming's former residence with "Yuanliangjing"; in addition, there was "Yafu Camp", that is, the Han Dynasty general Zhou Yafu, who led the army with strict discipline, and later generations called it "Yafu Camp".
The tail link focuses on the depressed mood at that time, and there is a sense of loneliness, this emotional fluctuation, which is portrayed vividly; the new beach on the river actually does not understand me, can not understand my depressed mood, at this time there is a rain of water, the rain knocks on the roof, but also makes a very loud sound, even in a long distance, you can hear the rushing rain.
Many of Li Shangyin's poems are describing the pain of life, and this "February 2nd" is written more sadly, after all, it is also necessary to face the pain of parting, as well as the thought of his wife, which also makes Li Shangyin feel a thousand emotions, in this poem, with a very delicate brushstroke, first described the beauty of spring, but only with this as a starting point, focusing on describing the personal situation, so the whole poem is full of sorrow, but also exhausted the helplessness of life.
