It was a long time ago that I met her, but since we separated, the time has become longer, the east wind is blowing and a hundred flowers are blooming. What do you mean?

When was it before I met her, but it was longer after we broke up, and the east wind blew and a hundred flowers blossomed. It means that it is harder to leave after a brief encounter. Besides, the weather in late spring, the east wind is about to close, which is even more sad.

Appreciation of this sentence:

It is so difficult for two people who love each other to meet, and it is so painful after a short meeting! In this season when the east wind is dying, the flowers are dying, as if they were sad for their unfortunate love story. The word "difficult", the first refers to the difficulty of meeting, and the second is pain and embarrassment. Because it is difficult to meet each other, it is also difficult to leave, which shows the poet's pain and sadness. The poet used the word "difficult" twice in one sentence, and the appearance of the second word "difficult" caused the twists and turns of this poem, which made the parting pain that we never met again particularly profound and lingering because of the low expression. The second sentence is the description of the link, which expresses the pain and sadness in the heart with the bleak east wind and withered flowers.

original text

It was a long time ago that I met her, but since we separated, the time has become longer, the east wind is blowing and a hundred flowers are blooming. Silkworms in spring will weave until they die, and candles will drain the wick every night. In the morning, she saw her hair cloud changing in the mirror, but she bravely faced the cold of the moonlight with her evening song. There are not many roads to Pengshan. Oh, Bluebird, listen! -Give me what she said! .

The opportunity for us to meet is rare, and we are inseparable when we break up. Moreover, when the east wind season is coming to an end, the flowers are dying, which is even more sad. Spring silkworms don't spin silk when they die, candles burn to ashes, and tear-like wax oil can drip dry. The beloved person dresses up in front of the mirror in the morning, only worrying about the discoloration of his temples and the disappearance of his youthful appearance. I can't sleep at night and feel cold. My wife lives not far from Penglai Mountain, but we can't meet each other. I only hope that a bluebird will visit my lover in advance and send me a message.

Love story in the poem:

A magic weapon of transportation, which can turn bad luck into good luck. )。 The two men looked at each other, and the beautiful young female Taoist immediately smiled at Li Shangyin, and a love affair and a beautiful first love began.

My feelings/my feelings

Some people say that this poem is a poem expressing politics, but I think this poem is just a poem expressing love and yearning. At that time, Li Shangyin was only sixteen or seventeen. Based on his experience, he can't write what we now understand as "the silkworm will weave until it dies in spring, and the candle will dry the wick every night". Then why did she write it again? There is only one reason, and that is love. Just like some students, they can't write their compositions, and some love letters are well written.
