Swallow imagery in ancient poems

Swallows are migratory birds that migrate with the change of seasons, and like to come and go in pairs in and out of people's houses or under the eaves of the house. Therefore, swallows were favored by the ancients and often appeared in ancient poems and lyrics, either to cherish spring and autumn, or to render sadness, or to send love thoughts, or to feel sad about the current events, the imagery of the fullness of the richness of the feelings, not other objects:

1. To express the beauty of the spring, to convey the feeling of cherishing the spring, such as: "The psalms and songs are all over the tourists, and then I realized that spring is empty. The curtains are hanging down, and the swallows are returning in the drizzle" (Ouyang Xiu's "Cai Sang Zi"), "The swallows are coming to the new society, and the pear blossoms are falling behind the clear sky" (Banquet Shu's "Broken Formation"), and "The flowers are blooming in the darkness, and the swallows are soaring with new breasts" (Wei Yingwu's "Encountering Feng Zhi in Chang'an"). Feng Zhi" (Wei Yingwu's "Meeting Feng Zhi in Chang'an").

2. It expresses the beauty of love and conveys the longing for one's lover, such as: "The swallow is flying, and it is not enough for it to be feathered; the son is returning, and it is sent far away from the field" ("Poetry Classic - Yan Yan"), "People are independent of the falling flowers, and the swallows are flying in the slightest rain" (Yen Qidao's "Linjiang Xian"), "The curtain is light and cold, and it is cold and cold. and "The mantle is cold and light, the swallows are flying away" (Yan Shi - "The Broken Formation").

3. Expressing the change of current events, expressing the feelings and grief of the past and present, the metabolism of the personnel, and the destruction of the country and the family, such as: "The swallows in front of the hall in the old days flew into the homes of common people" (Liu Yuxi's Wuyi Lane), "There is nothing I can do to help the flowers fall, and it seems to be déjà vu the swallows return, and I am wandering alone in a small garden" (Yanshu's Linjiang Xian). "The swallows knew where to go back then, but the moss was deep and the grass was dark and slanting" (Zhang Yan's "High Balcony"

4. Passing a letter on behalf of someone to tell them of the pain of being away from them, such as "My son-in-law is going to the lake, and I am sobbing a letter of blood at the window, and I am very attentive to him with the wings of the swallows, and I am sending it to my unloving husband. to the thinly-veiled husband." (Tang Dynasty Guo Shaolan's "Sending My Husband"), "Tearful eyes leaning on the building, often speaking alone, when the two swallows come, will the strangers meet?" (Feng Yansi's "Butterfly Lovers"), "Sadness of the swallows' feet to leave the red thread, annoyed with the luan shadow of the idle fan" (Zhang Kegui's "Saihongqiu - Spring Feelings"), "My son-in-law went to the lake, sobbed a bloody book at the window, attentive to the wings of the swallow, sent to the thinly-veiled husband." (Cao Xueqin-"Dream of Red Mansions"), etc., whose sadness and bitterness of love and longing are so touching that people are moved by them.

Cicada: a metaphor for high moral character. The ancients thought that cicadas drink dew, is a symbol of purity, so the ancients often use the cicada's purity to show their own character of purity. For example: "The sound of living high is far away, not through the autumn wind" (Yu Shinan, "Cicada"), "No one believes in high purity, who for the table of the rest of the heart." (Luo Binwang's "Singing Cicadas in Prison"), "It is difficult to be satiated by heights, but it is useless to hate the sound. The cicada's voice is not heard in vain, but it is broken at the end of the day, and the tree is merciless. The thin eunuchs are still on the verge of extinction, and the turnip in the old garden has already flattened. I am also raising my family to be clear." (Li Shangyin "Cicada"), "even alone hold the high and clear, suddenly into the bleak" (Wang Yisun "Qitian music"), etc., they are using cicadas as a metaphor for the high and pure character.

Bamboo: a metaphor for uprightness and integrity, straightness and open-mindedness.

For example, Zheng Banqiao's "Poem on Bamboo and Stone": "Biting the green mountain and not relaxing, the roots of the original in the broken rock; a thousand millstones and ten thousand strikes are still strong, let it be the wind of the south-east, west, north and west." Ming Xia Chang's Ink Bamboo Scroll: "In the early summer, I was so happy that I wrote a gift to Luanghuan to look at it with all my heart. I hope that I can be as modest as I am late, and that I can report peace every year on this day." Qiu Fengjia, "One of the Two Songs on Bamboo Painting": "The air of the bamboo does not defy the ground, and the section of the bamboo is strong in the sky. Life view of the heart, alone on the autumn Huang Huang shadow." Liu Yuxi's "Bamboo in the Courtyard": "It is like a gentleman, no place is not appropriate." Du Fu "send the title Jiangwai Cao Tang": "I was born free, elegant desire to escape nature. I love the wind and bamboo, and I have to live in the woods and springs." Pu Songling's "Bamboo Lane": "I especially love this gentleman, who scratches the edge of the sky, and when Ziyou arrives, I am especially glad that his master is a wise man."

Plum: a metaphor for snow, strength and indomitable character.

For example, Wang Anshi's poem "Plum Blossoms": "It is not the snow that is known from afar, but the dark fragrance that comes from it" not only wrote about the plum blossoms because of the wind, but also implicitly expressed the pure white of the plum blossoms, and received the artistic effect of both fragrance and color. Lu You's famous lyrics "Wing Plum": "Falling into the mud into dust, only the fragrance is as old as ever" borrowed the plum blossom to simulate their own devastating misfortune and unwillingness to be part of the noble sentiments. Another example is the Yuan Wang Coronation "ink plum": "do not want people to praise the color is good, only to leave a clean air full of Qiankun" is also to reflect their own quality of not wanting to be part of the dirt with the icy clean plum blossoms, shallow words and deep meaning.

Pine: a metaphor for firmness, pride, strength, vitality.

Li Bai's poem "Gift to Huang Shang" (赠书侍御黄裳): "I wish you would learn from the pine, and be careful not to be a peach or a plum" (韋黄裳) has always been a fawning follower of the rich and the powerful, and Li Bai wrote a poem to advise him, wishing that he would be an upright person. Another example is Liu Zhen's "Gift to my younger brother", which reads, "I don't suffer from the cold, but the pine and cypress have their own nature." With this line, the poet encourages his cousin to be as steadfast as the pine and cypress, and to maintain his noble qualities under any circumstances. Another example is "the pine at the bottom of the stream, the seedling on the mountain" (Zuo Si's "Aria"), and Chen Yi's "Aria of the Pine", which reads: "The snow presses down on the green pine, but the pine is straight and upright. If you want to know that the pine is noble, wait until the snow melts."

Orchid: Li Bai's "Ancient Winds": "Orchid is born in a quiet garden, and all the grasses are **** and turnipless", and Chen Ruyan's "Orchid": "Orchid is born in the deep mountains, and spits out the fragrance", which is a metaphor for the talent to be buried, and not being able to meet the talent; and also as " Orchids are born in spring and summer, and they are green and luxuriant! The color of the empty forest is unique, and the purple stems of the vermilion lemon are bubbling up." (Chen Zi'ang's "Sense of Encounter"), "the true gentleman of the flower, elegant style" (Zhang Xueliang's "Poem on Orchids").

Flowing water: in ancient Chinese poetry, it is associated with the threads of sorrow. For example, Li Yu's "The Beauty of Yu": "I ask you how many sorrows you can have, just like a river of spring water to the east" uses the east-flowing water as an analogy for the continuous sorrows. Another example is Li Bai's "Farewell to the School Book Uncle Yun at the Xieyi Building in Xuanzhou": "The water flows even more when I draw a knife to break it, and I raise a cup to dispel my sorrows", Qin Guan's "Treading on the Sands": "The sorrows of separation are gradually growing farther and farther away, and a long way to go is like the water of spring", and "The spring river is a river of tears. In Qin Guan's "Treading on the Sands", "Spring River is full of tears" and "Many sorrows, many sorrows", the combination of flowing water and separation sorrows is also a commonly used way of expression in classical poems. In ancient poems, poets often use flowing water as a metaphor for the passing of time. For example: "The great river goes east, the waves have exhausted all the characters of the ancient world" (Su Shi, "Nian Nujiao - Red Cliff Huai Gu"), "Hundred rivers go east to the sea, when will they return to the west?" (Lefu poem "Changgehang"), "Do you not see that the waters of the Yellow River come from the sky and never return to the sea?" (Li Bai's "Will Enter the Wine"), and so on.

Banana: Banana and sycamore imagery are similar in meaning, and are often symbols of loneliness and sadness.

For example, Li Qingzhao's Adding Characters to Cai Sang Zi - Who Planted the Banana Tree in Front of the Window: "Who planted the Banana Tree in front of the window, and the shade is all over the middle court. The shade is full in the courtyard, and the leaves are heartfelt, and there is a sense of surrender." Wu Wenying's "Tang Duoling": "Where is sorrow synthesized? The heart of the departed is in the fall. Even if the banana is not raining, the wind is still blowing." Ge Shengchong's "Point Jianglip": "How many idle sorrows, how many dreams are chasing the rain of bananas" and so on.

The cuckoo: often used to render a tragic atmosphere.

For example, "What do I hear in the middle of the day? The azalea cries blood and the apes wail" (Bai Juyi's "Pipa Xing"), "The poplars fall and Zi Gui cries, and I hear that the Dragon Marker passes through the Five Streams" (Li Bai's "I hear that Wang Changling has moved to the left side of the Dragon Marker, and I have sent this message from afar"). "I heard Zigui crowing at night and the moon, and I was sad about the empty mountains" (Li Bai's "Hard Road to Shu"), "I can't bear the coldness of a lonely pavilion closed in spring, and the sound of azaleas in the slanting sun in the twilight" (Qin Guan's "Treading on Shakespeare"), and "I'm leaving the road to the south of the Yangtze River from now on, and I've returned to the country in the blood of the azaleas. "I am now parting from the road to the south of the Yangtze River, and I am returning as a cuckoo with blood on my hands" (Wen Tianxiang's "Two Songs of Jinling Post"), etc.

Changting: a place of farewell on land, Shuipu is a place of farewell by the water, and poems often use it as a metaphor for the lengthy feeling of parting.

For example: "The cold cicadas are woeful, and it is late for the long pavilion" (Liu Yong's "Yu Lin Ling"), "Where is the return journey? The Long Pavilion is even shorter" (Li Bai's "Bodhisattva Barbarian"), "Beyond the Long Pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is blue even to the sky" (Li Shutong's "Farewell"), and so on.

Yang Liu: Yang Liu expresses the feeling of farewell or homesickness.

For example: "The willow is green and the river is horizontal, and I hear the sound of singing on the river" (Liu Yuxi's "Bamboo on a Branch"), "Where are you waking up from the wine this evening, on the bank of the willow, in the dawn wind, the moon is broken" (Liu Yong's "Rain Raining Bells"), and "The willows are all folded and the flowers fly away, and I ask the pedestrians if they will return. I ask the pedestrians if they are returning." (Anonymous' "Farewell"), "Whose jade flute flies in the dark, scattering into the spring breeze that fills Luocheng. When I heard the broken willow in the song of this night, I wondered why I didn't recall the love of my old garden." ("Hibiscus" is also known as "lotus", "lotus", "lotus", "lotus", "lotus", "lotus", "lotus", "lotus", "lotus" and "lotus".

Hibiscus" is also known as "lotus". "Hibiscus" gives people the impression that it is often very graceful, level of purity, easy to remind people of "Hibiscus", "Hibiscus good son" like a great beauty. Lotus Because "lotus" and "pity" sound the same, so there are many ancient poems written in lotus, to express love. For example, in the Southern Dynasty, the poem "West Island Song" reads: "Picking Lotus in the South Pond in the fall, the lotus flower passes over one's head; looking down to get the lotus seed, the lotus seed is as green as water." "Lotus seed" means "pity", and "green" means "clear". This is both real and imaginary writing, with double entendres and the use of harmonic double entendres, expressing a woman's deep longing for the man she loves and the purity of her love. Jin's "Forty-two Songs of the Son and the Night", No. 35: "The mist and dew conceal the hibiscus, and the lotus is not distinguishable when I see it." Fog and dew conceal the true face of the lotus, and the lotus leaves are visible but not quite distinct. This is also a way of utilizing harmonic puns to write about a woman who vaguely feels that the man is in love with her.

Wang Wei's "Autumn Night in a Mountain Dwelling" creates a beautiful. Harmonious and tranquil mood. "The bamboo clamor returns to the raccooness, and the lotus moves under the fishing boat."

Li Bai's "Nineteen Songs of Ancient Winds", "Hibiscus in my hand, and a false step to Taiching."

The sentence in the "Song of Complaints", "Look at the hibiscus flower, and who is going to die for it this year!"

Yao Suu (〈普天乐〉)〉"Hibiscus Xie, cold rain hit the study house, to be parted how can we bear to part?" Or to sigh the decadence of the lotus, or praise the lotus of high purity, the lotus as a typical imagery is no longer a mere scene, but a symbol of feelings.

Moon poems occupy a unique position in Chinese poetry, and the moon can be said to be one of the most favored images by ancient poets. Ancient "moon" performance of the following kinds of symbols: first of all, a symbol of reunion, the full moon is a metaphor for the reunion of people, the moon is a metaphor for the lack of separation, more representative of Su Shi's (〈水调歌头〉) "people have sadness and happiness, the moon has a yin and yang round, this matter is difficult to be complete, but I hope that the people long, thousands of miles*** Canyuanjuan", and secondly, the second is a symbol of the moon, the moon is the most important thing. Secondly, it is a symbol of longing, including longing for family members and hometowns, which is represented by Li Bai's "The moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be the frost on the ground, raising the head to look at the moon, and lowering the head to think of the hometown". The third is to take the moon as a symbol of beauty. Symbol of love, such as Zhang Ruoxu's 〈Spring Flowers and Autumn Nights〉: "Spring River tide even the sea said, the bright moon on the sea *** tide rises. Brimming with waves for ten million miles, where is the spring river without a bright moon?" The river is the first time to see the moon, the river moon is the first time to illuminate people, life is endless from generation to generation, the river and the moon are only similar every year, I do not know who the river and the moon are waiting for. I don't know who is waiting for the river and the moon. But I see the Yangtze River sending flowing water." According to WEN Yiduo's explanation, the "moon" here represents the transmission of the bright heart. The fourth is to use the moon as a symbol of purity without any contamination, which in turn leads to the realm of crystal clarity. The purity of nature is the purity of the heart, for example, Li Bai's "Jade Steps Complaints": "The jade steps are filled with white dew, and the night is long and invasive to the stockings". Here the moon is used as a symbol of the best and purest.

The ancients often used the moon to describe the landscape. Lyric vast, such as Du Fu Baiwang Mao Ping broad, the moon surging Yangtze River flow, Liao vertical aria moon good question, full of poetic feelings, popular for thousands of years.

Ancient poetry in the wild goose imagery

Ancient Chinese poetry, it can be said that the ocean is unbridled, the instrumental. Among them, there are many images that poets tend to use to express similar or compatible feelings due to their relatively stable emotional color.

When reading and appreciating poetry, it is necessary to interpret the imagery of poetry as a breakthrough, to familiarize with the imagery of poetry as a breakthrough point, to understand the meaning of the imagery of the poem, into the poem's mood, in-depth taste of the poem's emotions. In this regard, we should guide students to accumulate.

It is worth noting that, due to the author's different state of mind, the same object in different poems often show different meanings, thus reflecting the richness of the imagery, we have to pay special attention to the reading and appreciation of ancient poetry, otherwise, it is easy to make the mistake of swallowing it whole and copying it. Below, the author will only elaborate on the meaning of the image of wild geese in ancient poetry.

One of the geese to refer to the letter, or to the geese to pass the book, the feelings of homesickness and nostalgia

"The geese to pass the book" of the allusion to the "Book of the Han - Su Wu biography", from the beginning of the famous allusion to the geese has become a symbol of the letter, the geese as a messenger to transmit the letter, which is in the ancient poems in the use of the more common. This is more common in ancient poems.

For example, in Du Fu's The End of the Sky with Li Bai, there is a poem that reads: "The cool wind is at the end of the sky, how do you want to do it. When will the geese arrive?" A dear friend in the amnesty, eagerly awaiting news, so ask "when will the geese arrive", hoping that the geese can bring the news of friends from afar, the poet's concern for friends overflowing with feelings, really sincere and sincere.

There are many other ancient poems that use geese to refer to letters, or to send letters to express the feelings of homesickness and nostalgia for relatives and the feelings of sadness of traveling, such as: "The sea day and night, the river spring into the old year. How can I send a letter to my hometown? The Returning Geese by Luoyang." (Wang Wan "under the second Beigushan"); "The geese pass the book, Xiang Huang dye tears. There is no way to see the color, but also from the microwave." (Li Shangyin's "Leaving Thoughts"); "Small words on red paper, say all the flat business. The geese in the clouds fish in the water, melancholy this love is difficult to send." (Yan Shu's "Qing Ping Le"); "Who sends a brocade letter in the clouds? It is feasible, but when the geese return, the moon is full in the west tower." (Li Qingzhao, "One Cut Plum"); and so on.

The geese are migratory birds that migrate in spring and fall. In the fall, the geese take the long wind and fly to the south for the winter. This kind of scene every time touches the traveler's homesickness, in the ancient poems, the literati often borrowed the geese to express their feelings, send their own strong nostalgia.

For example, Liu Yuxi's "Autumn Breeze" reads: "Where does the autumn breeze come from? The geese are sent away by the Xiao Xiao. The first two lines use the phrase "the winds of autumn have come" to convey the feeling of nostalgia. In the first two lines, the question "Where does the autumn wind come from?" is asked in relation to the title, leading to the question of the ear. The first two lines of the poem ask a question about the title, leading to the sound of the wind and the geese coming with the wind, expressing the author's strong feelings of detention and longing to return home due to his long period of relegation. In the last two lines, "The lonely guest is the first to hear the wild geese coming into the garden tree", the "wild geese" in the autumn sky are moved to the "garden tree" in the courtyard, from far to near, changing the scenery step by step, thus triggering the "lonely guest" who is alone in a foreign land. The poem is also a great example of how a "lonely guest" can feel homesick for his or her homeland.

Another example is Wen Tingjun's "Early Morning Walk in Shangshan", which reads: "In the morning, I start to move the levies, and I am sad about my hometown. The sound of the rooster and the moon in the thatched store, the frost on the boardwalk. Mistletoe leaves fall on the mountain road, Hovenia flowers bright post wall. In my dream of Duling, the eider geese filled the pond." In the dream, mallard geese filled the pond, the scene of self-congratulation and the poet's situation is in sharp contrast to the poet's deep longing for his hometown expressed to the fullest.

There are many other ancient poems that use geese as a trigger point for travelers' homesickness and sadness, such as: "I heard the returning geese at night, and I was sick at New Year's. I was a guest under the flowers in Luoyang, and I was a guest under the flowers in Luoyang, and I was a guest under the flowers in Luoyang, and I was a guest under the flowers in Luoyang. I was once a guest under the flowers of Luoyang, though the wild fragrance is late, I don't have to contend." (Ouyang Xiu "play reply to Yuan Zhen"); "clouds of things clear brush the dawn flow, the Han family palace moving high fall. The remaining stars and geese crossing the plug, the long flute sounding people leaning on the building" (Tang Dynasty Zhao longevity "Chang'an Autumn Watch"); "The garrison drum breaks people's line, the sound of a goose in the border autumn. The dew is white tonight, and the moon is bright in my hometown." (Du Fu's "Remembering My Brother in the Moonlit Night"); "The blue cloudy sky, the yellow flower land, the west wind is tight. The geese are flying south. Who is drunk in the frosty forest at dawn? It is always the tears of the departed." (Wang Shifu's The Story of the Western Wing) and so on, really too numerous to mention.

Third, the geese as a metaphor for life encounters, the spiritual realm of life

1, in the ancient poems, the literati often use the "lonely", "mournful" sad to the metaphor of life encounters of the bleak and tragic.

For example, in "Poetry - Xiao Ya - Hong Yan" there are: "Hong Yan in flight, wailing wail. The philosophers, who are so grateful to me for their efforts. The fools, they say I am proud to declare." The poem wrote that the envoys traveled to the four directions and saw the stragglers like wild geese gathering in the field, and the stragglers were happy to see the envoys coming, and all of them talked to each other, like the sound of wild geese wailing endlessly. Later generations often use "wailing geese" as a metaphor for displaced, moaning and crying starving people in natural and man-made disasters, and "geese in the wild" and "wailing geese everywhere" as metaphors for people's displacement.

In the ancient poems, to "lonely", "mournful" to the sadness of the life experience of the bleak and tragic poems there are many. Such as: "Lonely Hong number outside the field, soaring birds singing north forest. What will I see when I wander around? I am saddened by my thoughts." (Ruan Ji's "Winged Memories"); "I heard the wanderer singing a song of separation last night, when the frost first crossed the river. The geese and geese can't listen to the sadness, and the clouds and mountains are the passages of the guests." (Li Chip's "Sending Wei Wan to the Capital"); "I believe that I have been born with a poetic prophecy, and I have forethought of the time when the door is closed by night rain. In September, I have no jacket in Huai Shui." (Gong Zizhen, "Miscellaneous Poems on the Occasion of the Birthday of the Emperor"), etc.

2. Geese are migratory birds, migrating in spring and fall. In ancient poems, poets often take geese migrating in spring and fall, wandering all their lives without a certainty, without dependence, a metaphor for the bleakness and misery of life encounters.

For example, Su Shi's "Bu San Zi" says: "The missing moon hangs in the tung tree, and the people are quiet at the beginning of the funnel. When I saw the ghostly man traveling alone, the shadow of the misty lonely goose. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm going to be able to do it," he said. The cold branches are not willing to live, the lonely sandbar is cold." This song is Su Shi was deported to Huangzhou period to write, Su Shi with the technique of picaresque, to the misty "Lone Hung" metaphor for the "ghost", the Lone Hung alarmed and uneasy, the heart of the ghost of hate, picking all the cold branches, refused to perch, but only to return to the deserted and cold sandbar, which is exactly Su Shi deported to Huangzhou time This is a reflection of Su Shi's mood and situation when he was relegated to Huangzhou.

There are many other poems in ancient Chinese poetry that describe the sadness and misery of the geese that migrate in spring and fall and wander around all their lives without any dependence on them. Such as: "life everywhere know how to be like? It should be like a goose treading on snowy mud. The mud occasionally leaves the fingers and claws, but the flying Hong which is no longer counting things. The old monk has died and become a new pagoda, and there is no reason to see the old inscription on the broken wall. Do you still remember the ruggedness of the past? The road is long, and the donkeys are hoarse." (Su Shi, "What Ziyu Mianchi Wistful for Old Times") Su Shi uses a flying hong treading on the snow and going without a trace to imply the sentiment that life is contingent and uncertain. The image is beautiful and vivid, and the philosophy is subtle and far-reaching, which makes people realize and also makes them despondent; "A single car wants to ask about the border, and the belonging to the country passes through Juyen. The marching boat is out of the Han Seaside, and the returning geese are in the Hu Sky." (Wang Wei "to the plug") Poet here is with "levies", "returning geese" self-comparison, that he is alone alone drifting, like the wind to go as the grass out of the "Han Sei", like the wings of the "returning geese" flying north. Like the "returning geese" flying north into the "Hutian", it is the poet's inner loss and melancholy.

3, geese are migratory birds, spring and fall migration. In the fall, the geese ride the long wind and fly to the south for the winter. In ancient poetry, poets often take the geese soaring in the sky, free and easy, a metaphor for a transcendent, free and easy life spiritual realm.

"The eye sends the returning goose, the hand waving five strings. Pitching self-compassionate, swimming mind too metaphysical" ("gift show into the army") is Jikang's famous line, the poet's eyes follow the sky free flying geese, with the return of the Hong far away, not only is the eyes, but also his desire for spiritual freedom of the mind. He has been transformed into a flying bird, God swims in the vast sky, to achieve a kind of transcendent and faraway realm - the Taoists aspire to the realm of free travel.

Another example is "The long wind sends the geese in the fall, and this can be a sound high building. The article of Penglai Jian'an bone, in the middle of the small Xie and Qingfa. I'd like to go up to the blue sky to catch the bright moon." (Li Bai, "Xuanzhou Xieqilou scorch farewell school Shu Yun") Miles of wind blowing to send the wild geese returning south, how free, in the face of this scene, can be mounted on a high building to drink poetry from the full of lofty sentiments, leaping thoughts like to take off into the sky on the high blue sky to pick the bright moon, where the "wild geese" sends the poet's ideals of life.

In summary, it is not difficult to find: a multi-dimensional interpretation of the imagery of ancient poetry is very necessary to help lead beginners to better grasp the imagery of ancient poetry, understand the meaning of the imagery of the poem, enter the mood of the poem, in-depth taste of the emotions contained in the poem.

Chrysanthemum Imagery in Poetry

Chrysanthemum: Hidden, Clean, and Unclassified Chrysanthemum: Although chrysanthemum is not comparable to peony, which is the color of the country, or orchid, which is worth hundreds of times more than the price of an orchid, as a flower of the frost, it is always favored by writers and ink writers, and some people praised it for its strength of character, and some people appreciated it for its noble temperament. Qu Yuan's "Li Sao": "Drinking the dew from the magnolia, and eating the chrysanthemum." Poets symbolize the nobility and purity of their character by drinking dew and eating flowers. Yuan Zhen of the Tang Dynasty wrote "Chrysanthemums": "Autumn bushes surround the house like the Taoist family, and the sun is slanting all around the hedges. It is not the flower that favors the chrysanthemum, but there is no more flower when this flower has finished blooming." It expresses the poet's pursuit of chastity and purity of character. Other poems such as "I'd rather die holding the fragrance on the branch than blowing down all the flowers" (Song's Zheng Sishao's "Cold Chrysanthemums") and "Wet and dewy on the lonely hedge, with the dimple of gold shining on the mud and sand in front of it" (Song's Fan Chengda's "Two Songs on Chrysanthemums after Chunggyang Festival"), etc., all of which use chrysanthemums to symbolize the poet's spiritual qualities, have undoubtedly become the poet's spiritual qualities.
