Snow poems

Hebei xinji city No.3 Middle School Qin Jing

Snow is the most poetic scenery in nature, so it is favored by literati. The description and enthusiastic praise of the wonderful brushwork of snow by poets in past dynasties is even more dazzling and refreshing.

1. The last chapter of The Book of Songs, Xiaoya and Cai Wei: In the past, I was gone, and Yangliu was Yiyi. Think about it today, it's raining. In the first snow, there are snow beads first, and sometimes snowfall is accompanied by rainfall, so there is a saying that "rain and snow are raining".

Second, the gold couplet poem Xie Taifu's "Children Telling the Meaning of Paper on a Snowy Night". When there was heavy snow, the public said, "What heavy snow?" The two brothers said, "The difference between salt in the air can be simulated." Brother and sister said, "If catkins are not caused by the wind", it can be regarded as a poem with the same rhyme.

Using "salt in the air" and "catkins due to the wind" to compare "heavy snow" has its own advantages and disadvantages. Some people think that "salt in the air" is a good metaphor. The color and falling state of snow are close to salt, while catkins are gray, which often float with the wind and even fly higher and farther, which is different from the way snow dances. To write something, you must first look like it, and then look like it. Shape is the foundation.

Some people think that "catkins are caused by the wind" is a good metaphor, which gives people the feeling that spring is coming and has profound implications. The metaphor of "sprinkling salt" lacks meaning. Good poetry should have images, which are the unity of matter and meaning, and catkin metaphor is good at having images.

3. In the Southern Dynasties, Liang and Wu Yun wrote a five-character poem "Ode to Snow". It is a famous sentence that has been passed down all the time: "The breeze shakes the trees in the courtyard, and the fine snow falls under the curtain. The air is like fog, and it condenses like a flower. I didn't see Yang, but I saw Gui Zhibai. No tears, no humanity, what is good about acacia. " The first six sentences of the poem describe the scenery, while the last two sentences are lyrical and full of charm. Whether it is the dynamic beauty of snow "like fog" or the static beauty of snow "like flower", it is difficult to write the current scenery.

Fourth, (1) Tang? Li Bai's "Popular North": Yanshan snowflakes are as big as seats, and pieces of them blow down Xuanyuantai.

[Appreciation] Snowflakes in Yanshan area are as big as mats and fall on Xuanyuantai one by one. This is Li Bai's famous sentence describing snowflakes. The Yanshan Mountains are located in the southeast of Jixian County, Hebei Province, generally referring to the north of China. Xuanyuantai site is located in Qiao Shan Mountain, Huailai County, Hebei Province. It is said in the sentence that "the snow is as big as a seat", which is a high artistic exaggeration, but it is a fact. Just as Lu Xun said in the article "Talking about Comics": "Yanshan Snowflakes are as big as seats" is exaggerated, but Yanshan is a little frank, so we can know at once that Yanshan was so cold. If the snow in Guangzhou is as heavy as one seat, it will be a joke. "
