The language and artistic conception, rhythm and rhyme of modern poetry, freshness and agility

1. The use of language and artistic conception

We all know that modern poetry has three obvious and specific elements: language, artistic conception and rhythm.

This shows how crucial language and artistic conception are to a modern poem.

If you want to appreciate the quality of a modern poem, these two factors are the first, indispensable, and cannot be ignored.

We all know that language comes from life, but the language used in any genre article is not the language that is truly in life.

"Art comes from life and is higher than life." In fact, this means that the language of any literary genre comes from life, but it "must be higher than life."

First, let’s read the poet He Sanpo’s poem "Sparrow"

Sparrow

Snow falls under the mountains

Houses squat in the snow

Cooking smoke squatting on the roof

Sparrows dressed as

Autumn leaves

Falling from the branches of the trees

Again In an instant?

Back to the tree

In just a few words, the poet has used elegant language and artistic conception to open up a beautiful picture to us.

"Snow is falling under the mountains/Houses are squatting in the snow/Cooking smoke is squatting on the roofs." In these three simple poems, we can experience a very beautiful artistic conception, which is a Tangible artistic conception,

"White snowflakes, houses, snow fields, cooking smoke", several simple objects, inadvertently, have risen and fallen before the readers, in fact, they have created a particularly elegant atmosphere. The artistic conception and atmosphere originate from the tranquility and holiness of nature, which is fascinating and makes readers imagine.

And "falling from the branch/and returning to the tree in an instant" is actually a kind of tangible and intangible artistic conception. In this intangible artistic conception, we not only see Seeing the sparrows, leaves, trees, and the vastness of vision and thought, I have a lot of insights and thoughts. In the severe cold, animals survive optimistically and work hard. For humans, it is actually a great encouragement and gratitude.

"The sparrows dress up as / autumn leaves / fall from the branches / and return to the trees in an instant." Here we can also appreciate the elegance of the poet's sentences and narrative,

“The sparrows are dressed as / autumn leaves”, there is almost no excessive modification, but what it brings to the readers is extremely clean and clear,

“Falling from the tree branches / again "Go back to the tree in an instant." In the quiet picture, there are sudden twists and turns, and the lovely sparrow flies upward, leading the reader's eyes to rise and rise. Inadvertently, the quiet picture is moving, flying upward and beyond.

The short poetry works also achieved great success. Here, we have fully realized the great charm that language and artistic conception bring to works and readers.

2. Grasp of Rhythm and Rhythm

Anyone who has been exposed to literature knows the meaning of rhythm.

In classical poetry, the role of rhythm is very important. If there is a lack of rhythm, or the rhyme is irregular, then the classical poetry cannot be called poetry, and the best poetry will lose its appeal.

After the New Culture Movement, in early modern poetry, poets grasped rhythm very thoughtfully and meticulously.

In early modern poetry works, we can often read those good works with clever control of rhyme and rhythm. The feelings these good works bring to us are usually brisk, graceful, cadence, and also... Or capable, generous, mellow, with a long aftertaste.

These masterpieces of rhyme and rhythm are also the best recitation works.

Then let’s come back and appreciate the masterpieces of sages and modern poets with a taste for rhythm and rhyme

Farewell Cambridge (Excerpt) - Author Xu Zhimo

I Walk Softly

Just as I came gently

I waved gently

Farewell to the clouds in the western sky

The golden willows by the river

Is the bride in the sunset

The beautiful shadow in the waves

Waves in my heart

The green grass on the soft mud

p>

Swaying gracefully under the water

In the soft waves of the Cam River

I am willing to be a waterweed

The one under the shade of the elm Pool

It is not a clear spring but a rainbow in the sky

Crushed among the floating algae

Precipitated with rainbow-like dreams

……

The whole poem has seven stanzas, each stanza has four lines, and each line has two or three stanzas. It is informal but rigorous. The rhyme scheme strictly adheres to the two or four rhymes, with ups and downs, and is catchy.

Under the author's control of the beautiful rhyme and rhythm, the poet's narration is like the beautiful ripples of a lake, with coolness and thoroughness, gradually spreading in front of the readers.

If you recite it gently, it will be even more interesting. The beautiful and tranquil objects that slowly unfold are "clouds, golden willows, sunset, bride..." "Gone gently, "Coming gently", the green pictures of spring are reflected in the readers' eyes,

"In the soft waves of the Cam River/I am willing to be a waterweed"... It is really warm, heart-warming and comfortable It is light, tender and beautiful, and like gentle songs, echoing in our ears.

This is what many poets believe that modern poetry is not only poetry, but also a beautiful song.

Only by looking at the poet's works and savoring his perfect rhythm and artistic conception can we realize how charming and intoxicating modern poetry is.

Today, decades later, modern poetry has climbed countless steps.

Today's modern poetry is completely free and full of personality. They are grand, unrestrained, restrained, open and carefree.

In other words, in today's modern poetry expression, many poets may have abandoned the original rhythm that poetry should have, but rhythm is still indispensable.

In a sense, rhythm actually represents a momentum of the work, or a style. If the rhythm is mastered skillfully, it will become a personality of the poets and also a style. Various styles may be born from this, forming a hundred schools of thought contending.

3. Fresh and Smart

We all know that poetry is composed of each detailed sentence. The freshness and flexibility here refer to the expression and structure of the sentence.

There are many ways to form a sentence. In terms of expression, generally individuals like to use their own usual techniques and personality to organize language.

There are procrastination, conciseness, Some are fresh and elegant, some are cumbersome and long-winded. The difference in poetry level and style comes first from the difference in one's ability to organize language.

Freshness is actually just a feeling, a combination of freshness and freshness.

If the combination of a sentence or the expression of a poem can achieve this point and silently bring refreshing and freshness to readers, how can it not make readers like and be moved?

And agility refers to the invisible power and movement contained in the expression, which can make old pictures alive, make static objects jump, make dim colors bright, and even make dead objects come alive again. Rebirth!

From this, we can see how powerful agility is, and it can also be seen that the "movement" of agility is actually a silent force. Below we will analyze it specifically through poetry.

Winter sunshine

They climbed over the wall, the anti-theft net

Over the closed glass, screen window

Jumped down lightly

Wandering in the room

What a lively group of fish

They wear golden clothes

They swim in the cold air

p>

They were swimming on the white floor

I watched quietly

It was like the cold time had revived

Like those happy fish , just

Swimming in my warm heart

In this exquisite and short poem, we can appreciate the incomparable warmth and beauty that the literary genre of poetry brings to us The feeling, the deep poetry runs through it.

The biggest feature of this poem is its freshness and agility, and it also has a particularly strong sense of imagery.

In the first section, "They climbed over the wall, the anti-theft net/over the closed glass, the screen window/jumped down gently/wandering in the room", here we see the author's fresh language, There is no triviality or complexity, and a series of verbs such as "turn over", "jump down" and "wander" are just right, leading the reader's sight and senses from far to near, refreshing and refreshing.

In the second stanza, there is a sense of beauty and movement. The winter sunshine here is "silently transformed" into groups of lively fish. "They wear golden clothes/They swim in the cold air." "Inside/They are swimming on the white floor." Sunlight is originally quiet, even with a sense of stillness, but the author uses clever metaphors and narratives to make quiet things swim and quiet pictures jump. From this, you have to Sigh the magical effects of freshness and energy.

In the third section, the author cleverly sublimates the sense of movement, continues to stretch the movement of the picture, and uses smart sentences to gently jump upward, "I watched quietly / as if it was cold Time revives / as if those happy fish are swimming / in the warm sea of ??my heart." Haha, the sun shines on everything, and also shines on everyone's heart,

"As if those happy fish , just/swimming in the warm sea of ??my heart." The warm sunshine turns into a group of golden fish. They swim warmly and enthusiastically into a person's heart, and also into the reader's heart. So gentle and warm, so tender and delicate, how can this feeling and scene not make people happy!
