Are the lotus flowers in the lotus pond beautiful?

A wisp of "breeze" moved this beautiful lotus picture: "The breeze blew and brought a wisp of fragrance, like a faint song from a distant building. At this time, the leaves and flowers also trembled slightly, like lightning, and swept across the other side of the lotus pond at once. The leaves are next to each other, so there are clear ripples. There is a running water under the leaves, which is covered and can't see the color.

And this seems to be not extreme enough! Look at the moonlight on the pond: "The moonlight is like running water, quietly pouring on this leaf and flower. A thin layer of blue mist floats in the lotus pond. Leaves and flowers seem to have been washed in milk; It's like a veiled dream. " The flowing water under the leaves is hidden by the dense leaves, but the moonlight on the leaves is "quietly pouring down", and the word "pouring down" turns static into dynamic, making people see the flowing feeling of moonlight; "Thin blue fog floats in the lotus pond", and the word "floating" highlights the light and hazy fog. Leaves and flowers are shrouded in mist, as if washed in milk, like a dream. The moonlight is hazy and soft, and the mist is light. The lotus pond under this month is really like a fairyland! The light full moon gives people the feeling of "taking a nap", just like the author's mood at this time, but just right. The author inadvertently reveals a faint joy here. "The sparse beautiful image of curved willow is like painting on the lotus leaf." The beautiful image of willow is not "cast" on the lotus leaf, but the author just uses a "painting", as if a master painter splashed ink. Full of interest. "Light and shadow have a harmonious melody, such as a famous song played by the Vatican." The moonlight is faint, and black and white light and shadow are like a harmonious melody, and the lotus fragrance sets each other off. The author's subtle feelings are really fascinating!

This beautiful scenery can make the author forget the sorrow, right? But "the excitement is theirs, and I have nothing." The author still can't get rid of that melancholy. Light sadness and light joy are intertwined, and the lotus pond is covered with a hazy veil under the beautiful moonlight, which is quiet and elegant, quiet and soft, hazy and harmonious, and the lotus pond and moonlight are integrated!

Reading Mr. Zhu Lao's Moonlight on the Lotus Pond, I feel that I am in the lotus pond, as if I were walking on a secluded path. Graceful green lotus leaves, graceful lotus flowers, hazy moonlight and foggy lotus ponds are displayed in front of my eyes.

One is to write a true story.

What scenery is described in Moonlight on the Lotus Pond? The topics are clearly marked as follows: one is the lotus pond and the other is the moonlight. There are many poems about the lotus pond and more about moonlight. However, the moonlight in the lotus pond in this article is definitely different from that in other lotus ponds. The lotus pond here will not be "infinite lotus leaves and different colors of lotus flowers" The moonlight here can't be "moonlight on the lotus pond" and "moonlight on the lotus pond". It is precisely because the works clearly highlight the characteristics of the scenery and vividly reproduce the specific scenery in a specific environment that the sincere feelings expressed in the article can be trusted and make readers feel true and cordial.

First look at the description of the lotus leaf: "The leaves are high above the water, like a graceful dance skirt." If we put aside the specific environment, can we compare the lotus leaf to a "green jade plate"? Of course, and it is quite expressive. This description not only describes the color of the lotus leaf, but also shows its quality and shape. However, this metaphor can only be used in sunrise, sunset or drizzle, never in moonlight. It's even harder to distinguish colors at night. The lotus leaf seen in the moonlight is mainly its naturally stretched shape, which is very similar to a skirt.

When writing lotus flowers, the original text used three metaphors: "among the leaves, there are some white flowers scattered, some are blooming gracefully, and some are blooming shyly;" Like a pearl, like a star in the blue sky, like a beauty who just took a bath. "Lotus is exquisite and luxurious, comparable to beauty. In the poem "Lotus" by Yang, a poet in the Song Dynasty, there is a sentence "Just like three thousand women in the Han Dynasty, half with heavy makeup and half with light makeup". In the hazy moonlight, the lotus flower is regarded as a beauty, just out of the bath, and the hazy feeling is just right. On the contrary, if it weren't for the dim moonlight,

The article describes the lotus fragrance like this: "The breeze blows, bringing a wisp of fragrance, like a faint song from a distant building." This intermittent and seemingly absent feeling will never come from the morning when the books are loud, nor from the harsh noon, but only from the silent moonlit night when the children's laughter can no longer be heard on the road outside the wall. Let's look at another sentence about flowers: "There is nothing here but glory." The fragrance is like lavender, which covers me gently like a dream. "(wisteria falls) This is the fragrance of flowers in the bright sunshine, and the purple flowers are" teasing each other with the sunshine ". The dazzling purple stimulates the author to think that the fragrance is lavender, which is natural.

Only one sentence directly describes the moonlight. In this paper, the moon is mostly written by innuendo, which is also the expression technique respected by scholars in previous dynasties. "The high bushes cast uneven and mottled shadows; The beautiful image of curved willows seems to be painted on lotus leaves. The moonlight in the pond is uneven; But light and shadow have a harmonious melody, such as a famous song played by Van Aling. " The shadows here are jagged and mottled, giving people a sense of relief. Why? Just because it landed in the lotus pond, the leaves and flowers trembled slightly and passed through the lotus pond like lightning. The leaves are close side by side, so there are crisp ripples. "Shadow falls on the wave mark, of course, more uneven, many-hued. It is precisely because the lotus pond is in this dynamic state that the beautiful image of willow is like a "painting".

Second, express the truth with the truth.

In order to write immortal works, many writers in the literary world deliberately pursue their works to reflect their true feelings, but when they write articles, they often give people the suspicion of affectation. Of course, there are many reasons for this situation, one of which is the lack of profound language skills, which leads to a word-unstable true feelings-lost regret. The article "Moonlight on the Lotus Pond" can express the author's "being in a beautiful moment" in accurate and appropriate language.

The moonlight in the lotus pond is wonderful and warm, and this kind of scenery can certainly give people joy. There are few direct lyric sentences in the text, but it is not difficult to observe the author's happy mood at that time through the words described in the scenery. Leaves are like skirts, and skirts are "graceful dancers"; Flowers bloom gracefully and shyly. Flowers are like "songs" and light and shadow are like "famous songs". Which of these words is not full of joy? But this joy is "weak" after all, without excitement or ecstasy. The metaphor of "a beauty who just came out of the bath" mentioned in the last section is not only contrary to the specific environment, but also incompatible with the specific emotion of "faint joy". Just imagine, can a group of "beautiful women who just came out of the water" show "faint joy"?

This kind of "faint joy" has been pervading the whole process of landscape writing, but the original text has a sentence "like a ghost" after "falling a mottled shadow"; This sentence alone is enough to disturb the warmth and happiness and destroy the happy mood. Ghostly shadows bring people only horror, no joy, and even "faint sadness" will not arise from them, let alone such wonderful associations as "famous songs played on Van Aling".

Although I am in the beautiful scenery, I can't get rid of the "faint sadness". "A person can think of everything and think of nothing in the boundless moonlight, and feels like a free person." The word "sleep" in the language adds infinite meaning to the article. The word "less" has really become a free man, with only joy and no sorrow. There are also two "musts" that "what must be done during the day and what must be said can be ignored now", which can better show the author's unspeakable difficulties.

In the process of describing beautiful scenery, it should be full of joy, right? Really not. Look at this sentence: "One or two street lamps are leaking from the tree, so you are listless and sleepy." Describe street lamps, try to choose negative words and things, sentences are soothing, and the tone is low. Readers seem to hear the author's helpless sigh between the lines. They are also writing lamps. My castle in the air is such a language: "The lamp at the foot of the mountain illuminates the darkness", and the tree is ethereal. "The sentence pattern is neat and the rhythm is lively, and the author's uncontrollable joy is permeated in this cantabile andante. Of course, the words described in the above two paragraphs are not interchangeable, and even the sentence patterns can never be intermodulated.
