Crying geese and flying geese in poetry

Since ancient times, the figure of geese has danced gracefully in poets' writings, leaving behind countless popular poems. These poems either describe the elegant posture of the goose, or express the poet's feelings. The love and nostalgia for the goose flow between the lines.

Ode to Goose

The geese described by the Tang Dynasty poet Luo Binwang are white and flawless, with graceful postures: Goose, goose, goose, singing to the sky. Just six words outline a vivid picture. The gosling raises its head and sings, and the crisp song echoes between heaven and earth. The goose's pure whiteness reminds people of a spotless state of mind; the goose's head held high reveals a high-spirited spirit.

Hou Lo Tian saw a gift at the first banquet in Yangzhou

Tang Dynasty poet Liu Yuxi and Bai Juyi traveled to Yangzhou together and received a poem from Bai Juyi at the banquet. Liu Yuxi wrote in his poem in return: Bashan and Chushui were desolate places, abandoned for twenty-three years. Nostalgic, I recite the flute poems in the air, and when I go to the countryside to read them, I feel like a dead person. The poem reveals the poet's desolate feeling of having a bumpy career and traveling in a foreign country. The poem "Lanke Ren" is a metaphor for the poet who has been away from his hometown for many years. After returning, he found that the world has changed and things have changed. The poet uses goose feathers to describe the passage of time. Twenty-three years have passed by so fleetingly, which is surprising.

Flying Wild Goose Returns

In "Flying Wild Goose Returning" written by Yan Shu, a poet from the Song Dynasty, geese are used as images to express the longing for relatives far away: Flying wild geese are returning, plugging in *Fireworks are cold. Before the autumn scenery arrives, I will send Li Hong away early. In late autumn, the flowers outside the Great Wall are withered and faded, and the cold wind is bleak. The wild geese flying south took away the poet's mood and also aroused his longing for his relatives far away. The poet couldn't help but sigh, the swan geese have already left before the autumn colors arrive, how can it not evoke the sadness of separation?

Jiangmei Yin·Ode to Changsha with Feelings

In "Jiangmei Yin·Ode to Changsha with Feelings", the Qing Dynasty poet Zheng Xie used the posture of a goose to express his character: Shang Keep the pure air and fly through the back of the paper. The word "out of the valley is old", which is bigger than "Fang Wengmei". The poet compares himself with the freshness of a goose, showing that he is not afraid of powerful people and dares to speak out. He also used the power of a goose to penetrate the back of paper as a metaphor for the vigor and power of his calligraphy, which is comparable to that of Su Shi and Lu You. The poet uses the character of the goose to encourage himself to maintain high moral integrity even in adversity.

Goose

The poem "Goose" by the modern poet Yu Guangzhong praises the innocence of geese from a unique perspective: a rain of geese moistens the throat. Splash and splash to make yourself happy. Swim in the small pond. One day, Yunshui formed a happy alliance. The poet compares the goose's play to a rain, making people feel the goose's unrestrained and innocent nature. Between heaven and earth, geese swim freely and form a deep friendship with Yunshui. The poet praises freedom and happiness through the image of goose.
