China is a country of poetry, and Tang poetry is a peak in the history of Chinese poetry. A large number of outstanding poets emerged in the Tang Dynasty, surpassing any dynasty in Chinese history and becoming the heyday of Chinese poetry.
In 289 years of the Tang Dynasty, Tang poetry was about 48,900. Li Bai, Du Fu, Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan, Bai Juyi, Li Shangyin, Du Mu and many other names have made the most beautiful glory of the poetry of Tang Dynasty.
Why do we want to study Tang poetry?
First, you can better use your imagination. The picture of poetry is very strong, and it is imagination to let poetry fly. For example, when I read: “Goose goose, gossip to the sky song, white hair floating green water, red palm dialing green wave”, I seem to see the creek in the country, the long willow branches hang down to the stream, The stream is crystal clear, and a group of beautiful white geese swim leisurely, raising their necks as if to sing the most beautiful songs.
Second, you can better feel the beauty of the mood. Every time I read an ancient poem, my brain feels like “putting a movie.” The beautiful scene seems to be in front of my eyes, inscribed in my heart, and makes me crazy. When my mom and dad boarded the Yellow Crane Tower and looked at the Yangtze River, there was only one sentence in my mind: “There is no way to fall into the woods, and the Yangtze River is not rolling.”
Third, I can better express my feelings. When you see the spectacular scene of the setting sun, it is not: “Wow, there are many birds!” Instead: “Landscape and loneliness fly together, the autumn water has a long day,” when you see a pool of lotus flowers, not “Wow, beautiful flowers,” but “the lotus leaves are endless, and the lotus flowers are different.”
So how do I learn about Tang poetry:
First, learn because you like it. Reading poetry can make people feel happy, just like people who understand music can listen to music and get happiness from it. Poetry is a beautiful cake, we send it to the mouth, just to taste its sweetness, not to show off to others that I have eaten cakes, and to memorize it is to better turn those verses into their own things, better Experience the language beauty, artistic conception, and imaginative beauty of poetry.
Second, look for the key to understanding. The key words in ancient poetry often point out the main content of the poem and express the emotion of the poet. This is the golden key to our understanding of ancient poetry. For example, Du Fu’s “Spring Rain”, this poem is written around the keyword “good rain.” This rain seems to know the needs of the peasants. It should be from time to time, the size is right, and all things are moisturized. Isn’t this a good rain? Moreover, this rainy night is quiet and silent, and does not hinder people’s labor and rest. How good. Grasping the “good rain”, it is very easy to understand.
Third, we must contact the actual study. Many verses in ancient poetry are very easy to understand if they are related to life. In spring, you will really feel the “blowing face is not cold and willow wind”; in summer, approaching the lotus pond, the beauty in front of you is the best annotation of “Yingri Lotus is different red”; autumn, fiery maple, you I think it is appropriate to describe the description of “Frost Red in February”! In the winter, after a heavy snowfall, isn’t it the “Thousands of Mountain Birds Flying, the Million Trailer Destroyed”? Combine the actual imagination and understand the ancient poetry nature. Easy and comfortable.
I believe that children who are nourished by ancient poetry will not only get poetry and literary talent, but will actually become more and more favored by life and destiny.

Big world in a small pocket book
——Reading the Three Hundred Tang Poems
I have a pocket book called “Three Hundred Tang Poems”. It is wearing a red dress with a thin green rope tied to it, which is very cute. It is like a good partner of mine, where is it where I am. Don’t think that this pocket book is useless when it is small. In fact, it is a kaleidoscope of ancient life, it brings us a wonderful world. The sun, the moon and the stars, the changing seasons, the great rivers and mountains, the joys, the sorrows and sorrows… all find a wonderful depiction here. The poems we have learned in the first grade to the third grade of our primary school can be found here, and some poems have made me particularly impressed.
Different seasons and seasons, this is a proper expression in the “Three Hundred Tang Poems”. We all say that spring is the most beautiful and most promising, and it is true. Meng Haoran’s “Spring Xiao” “Spring sleep does not know, everywhere smells ostriches, night winds and rains, flowers know how much.” Expressed the spring, spring, spring rain, quiet, soft feeling, people especially cherish. In He Zhizhang’s “The Willow”, “I don’t know who the fine leaves are cut out, and the spring breeze looks like scissors” makes us feel the power of the spring breeze. In summer, the grass is lush, the flowers are beautiful, and it is beautiful. Meng Haoran’s “The Old Man”: “The Green Tree Village, the Qingshan Guo Wai”, presents a picture of a mountain tree and people surrounded by each other. Autumn is also colorful. Du Mu’s “Mountains”: “The distance from the cold mountain stone path is oblique, there are people in the depths of the clouds. Parking is sitting in love with Fenglin, and the frost is red in February.” The beauty of the autumn maple forest is presented to us and becomes the present. Travel to see the classic expression of maple leaves. In autumn, everything is bleak. For example, Du Fu’s “Climb”: “There is no way to fall into the woods, and the Yangtze River is not rolling.” I wrote the scene of the dead leaves. There are also praise songs for the fall, such as Liu Yuxi’s “since autumn and autumn, I say the autumn wins the spring”, expressing the joy of autumn. Winter is the world of snow. Liu Changqing’s “Feng Xue Su Furong Mountain Master”: “Chaimen smells the dog, the wind and snow return to the night”, let us see a scene of the return of the snow. Cen Shen “suddenly, like a spring breeze, thousands of trees and pears blossomed”, the winter snow came to the forefront, the fast-moving, vivid expression, also wrote the poet’s joy to face the snow. It can be said that the beauty of the four seasons is in this “Three Hundred Tang Poems”.
The “Three Hundred Tang Poems” also praises the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. For example, Li Bai’s “Wangyu Mountain Waterfall” “flying down three thousand feet, suspected that the Milky Way fell for nine days”, portrayed the spectacular scenery of the Lushan Waterfall. Wang Wei’s famous phrase “The desert is solitary and straight, the long river falls into the Japanese circle”, vividly depicting the mountains and rivers of the motherland, making the desolate desert become very beautiful and fascinating, and become a singer of the ages.
We know that poetry expresses emotions. “Three hundred poems of Tang poetry” expresses many sincere emotions, the most touching of which is friendship. For example, Li Bai’s “Gift Wang Lun” “Peach Blossom Lake is a thousand feet deep, not as good as Wang Lun sent me”. Although the technique is exaggerated, the deep friendship between Li Bai and Wang Lun deeply touched me. Wang Wei’s “Send Yuan 2 to Make Anxi” “persuade the monarch to make a cup of wine, and the West is out of the Yangguan no reason” wrote the reluctance and nostalgia between friends. Other poems express personal feelings, such as Li Shangyin’s “Le You Yuan”: “The sunset is infinitely good, just near dusk”, expressing the sadness of people’s old age. We are familiar with Wang Wei’s “extraordinary foreign land for the stranger, every time the festival is full of love”, expressing the nostalgia for the loved ones.
The “Three Hundred Tang Poems” also tell us a lot of truth. For example, in the “Dengyuquelou”, “Let’s go to the top of the building, go up to the next level” tells us that there are goals, there are wishes, we must work harder and act positively to achieve our ideals.
There are many ancient poems in our Chinese textbooks, these are traditional cultural classics. The poems in my pocket book are also found in our Chinese textbooks. I am very kind to see them. I feel that the 300 poems of Tang poetry are a rich and colorful world. Reading and learning these poems, we can feel the beauty of nature and the country’s great rivers and mountains, as well as the feelings of the ancients, and understand the truth in some poems. I think this is the classic charm.
