What makes Shu Ting write such beautiful love poems? Is it because of her personal experience? What kind of experience has she had?

In the early spring of that year, I first met Shu Ting at Xiamen Airport.

After saying goodbye to the customers who saw me off, I walked into the airport terminal with my luggage, only to find that my flight was delayed. Sitting in a chair by the window, watching the bustling crowd, I waited anxiously and helplessly. Someone is making a loud phone call in a public phone booth, probably to a friend who picks up the plane far away. Hello, I'm Shu Ting! The plane is late, I don't know when to take off ... Shu Ting? Hearing this familiar name, I couldn't help looking at the telephone booth next to me: this is a young woman in her thirties with glasses, short hair and elegant clothes. Is this the poetic poet Shu Ting?

I was thinking that she came up to me with her bag and sat not far from me. I started chatting with her. It turned out that she and I went to Beijing on the same plane. She told me that she was going to Beijing to attend a pen meeting. After hearing what she said, I'm sure this Shuting is the person I guessed. She asked me what I was doing in Xiamen. How many times have you been here? She was a little surprised when she heard that I had been here seven or eight times. I told her that I go to Xiamen several times a year, because the French company I work for deals in gelatin, which is the raw material of the photography industry, and I happen to be responsible for the distribution and use of gelatin in the China market, so several domestic photography companies are my customers. Recently, Xiamen company imported our products, and I came to Xiamen more frequently. During the conversation, I also told her that in my college days, several students in my class who loved literature liked her poem very much. We can basically recite the poem To the Oak Tree:

If I love you,

Never liked to climb Mount Campbell,

Show off yourself with your tall branches;

……

Never imitate spoony birds,

Repeat simple songs for the shade;

It is not only like spring, but also brings cool comfort all year round;

It is not just like a dangerous peak, it increases your height and sets off your dignity.

Even sunshine.

Even spring rain.

……

We share cold current, wind and thunder, thunderbolt;

We like mist, flowing mist and rainbow.

As if we were separated forever,

But they are lifelong dependent.

……

From this poem, we talk about the love and values of our generation. I mentioned 1978 that when we were in college, we didn't fall in love very much. On the one hand, the school is strict, on the other hand, the students are simple and cherish the hard-won university life. The love in the eyes of students is so noble and sacred, and there is absolutely no secular copper smell. This is also the reason why Shu Ting's love poems were loved by young people. It expresses people's desire to advocate spiritual life and pursue pure love. When it comes to the phenomenon that love has become the norm in college campuses and people in the society care about money, we both feel a little "the world is getting worse, and people are not old", and we are deeply attached to our past life. She told me that she likes college students in 1978 very much, because this generation has the richest life experience, the most ideal and the most talented.

By the time the plane took off, the two of us had talked for a long time like old friends. When night fell, we arrived at the Capital Airport smoothly. When we parted, Shu Ting handed me a business card with her home address and telephone number printed on it, and asked me to inform her when I went to Xiamen.

A few months later, I came to Xiamen again. This time, I stayed at Lujiang Hotel, which is located on the bank of Lujiang River in the city center. Lujiang Hotel and Gulangyu Island, the "sea garden", face each other across the sea, and the landscape is very beautiful. After the business was busy, I dialed Shu Ting's phone and made an appointment to meet at noon next Sunday. Shu Ting asked me what I like to eat. I said I wanted to eat authentic seafood from ordinary restaurants. I came to Xiamen several times before, all with my French colleagues. They always stay in the luxurious and comfortable Yuehua Hotel far from the city. Eating is either a treat from photosensitive company or going to Yuehua's restaurant, so there is little chance to freely taste local snacks with full flavor.

Shu Ting arrived as promised, and she offered to take me to Gulangyu Island. So we got on the ferry to Gulangyu. Every day is blue, and the sea breeze blows gently, floating up our dresses and blowing up our hair. When I got off the boat, Shu Ting took me across several streets and walked into a quiet and chic restaurant. She greeted her boss with familiar eyes. I can't remember exactly what I ate that day. What impressed me the most was that there was a big picture on the left wall of the dining room: the rough sea and a magnificent bridge stood in the air. I don't know why, but I immediately decided it was the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, USA. Earlier that year, my husband went to America alone, leaving me with deep sadness and deep thoughts. At that time, everything related to the United States made me feel very cordial and reminded me of my relatives on the other side of the ocean. Many years later, when I settled in the Bay Area and saw the real Golden Gate Bridge with my own eyes, I realized that the bridge in this painting was not orange and the scenery was not San Francisco in the United States at all. We talked a lot at dinner. When I paid the bill, I insisted on paying, saying that it was reimbursed by the French company anyway. Shu Ting shook off my hand and said no again and again. When I arrived in Xiamen, I must do my best to make it reasonable for the guests to pay the bill. I have to take care of myself and watch her pay the money neatly.

Let's go outside together. Gulangyu Island is beautiful with trees and trees. The sea breeze blows in bursts, which makes people relaxed and happy. We walked and talked in the wind, and Shu Ting gave a loud laugh from time to time. She is talkative and generous. She invited me to her house. I remember her home was very bright, very bright. Her husband and son are here, and the son is still very young and looks like a primary school student. After greeting, she led me to the back room. She said that your husband has gone abroad and you are leaving soon. I don't know when we can meet again! As he spoke, he took out some clothes from the closet and gave them to me as a souvenir. I said no, and she waved me off: it's all my clothes. It's very comfortable to wear this silk skirt in summer. Seeing that she said this, I knew she meant it, so I chose a coat and a silk skirt. Later, I really took the clothes that Shu Ting gave me across the ocean, first to France and then to the United States. Every time I wear them, I think of Shu Ting, her hearty laughter and her fiery enthusiasm.

When I was in Xiamen, I caught up with the news broadcast on TV, as if I were trying a case of a self-employed person. I don't know the details. I only heard that Shu Ting did everything for her self-employed friends and became a witness for the defense. At that time, people's legal concept was not strong, and they didn't know much about the procedures and processes of legal proceedings. It seems that it is not a good thing to go to court together, and it is too late to hide. A literary celebrity like Shu Ting really needs courage and a sense of justice to stand up bravely. I have never talked to her about it, and I don't know the details. I just think Shu Ting is sincere and enthusiastic, with such a chivalrous generosity. Making public appearances in front of friends should be in line with her character.

I haven't seen her since/kloc-0 went abroad in 1988. Time flies, more than ten years have passed. When I first came out, we passed several letters. She gave me beautiful bookmarks with her poems printed on them. Later, I moved several times and never contacted again. After settling down, I feel that life in America is dull, and I really don't know what to say to my talented poet friends. I occasionally read her poems in newspapers and magazines and really want to get in touch with her. But it was never possible. It was not until the beginning of this year that I rummaged through her letters nine years ago and sent a letter at the old address above, and my heart calmed down a little. Soon, a letter came from the beautiful Gulangyu Island. As soon as I saw the familiar handwriting, it was like meeting Shu Ting, who told me that she still lived in Gulangyu. Over the years, because of her old address, she has found many lost friends.

I look forward to the day when I see Shu Ting again, and I look forward to hearing Shu Ting's laughter again in the breezy sea breeze of Gulangyu Island.

Shu Ting Baidu Encyclopedia may have the most comprehensive information, otherwise you will have to wait for her biography:

Shu Ting is good at introspecting the rhythm of self-emotion, especially showing the unique sensitivity of women in grasping complex and meticulous emotional experience. The complexity and richness of emotions are often manifested through special sentence twists and turns such as assumptions and concessions. Shu Ting can also find sharp and profound poetic philosophy (goddess peak and Hui 'an daughter) in some conventional phenomena that are often ignored by people, and write this discovery with both speculative power and touching feelings.

[Edit this paragraph] Writing characteristics

Shu Ting's poems are unique to women's delicacy and sensitivity. For example, her delicate feelings about love and her understanding of the hardships of life are full of romanticism and ideals, and her love for the motherland, life, love and land is warm, peaceful and passionate. Her poems are good at expressing inner feelings by artistic means such as metaphor, symbol and association, revealing rational thinking in a hazy atmosphere, which is the product of the combination of romanticism and modernism. Shu Ting's poems have bright images and meticulous and smooth thinking logic. In this respect, her poems are not "hazy". However, most poems use metaphors, partial or whole symbols, and rarely express confessions, and the images expressed are vague to some extent.
