Appreciation

One evening in spring, the poet traveled to the riverside, and the scenery he saw was desolate and lonely. The poet begins by showing the typical characteristics of fishermen's residences: simple huts, located close to remote river mouths, making it easy to fish out of the river. It was time for the tide to rise, and the river tide soaked Chaimen. The poet peeped outside the firewood gate and found that there was no one in the house. Why is the poet lingering outside the door and looking around? It turned out that he was going to stay at this fisherman's house, but the owner had not returned home yet. "The traveler wants to stay" implies that it is getting late, but "the master has not returned yet" reveals that the master has been fishing on the river for a long time, and his labor is self-evident.

At this moment, the poet had no choice but to wander outside the house, waiting, and looking at the surrounding environment: the bamboo bushes were dark green and deep, the country roads were winding and stretching, and the front village was still far away; the moon came out, and the poet was anxious Looking down at the river, fishing boats on the river are becoming increasingly rare. Using the word "far" to vaguely describe the poet's eagerness to stay here. "Moonrise" means that it is night. "There are few fishing boats" and "The master has not returned yet" echo each other and complement each other. Faced with this desolate and desolate state, the poet's desire for his master's return becomes even more urgent. He kept looking at the river mouth, and saw a small boat approaching the shore from a distance. A fisherman was looking for a sandy beach to moor the boat, and his raincoat was fluttering in the spring breeze. It seemed that the long-awaited fisherman had returned, and the poet suddenly felt joyful. The last sentence is vivid in image, brisk in tone, high in spirit, and full of charm. It leaves a particularly deep impression on people and embodies the poet's deep affection for the fishermen.

The language of this poem is shallow, smooth, lively and rounded. The sentence "The spring breeze moves the grass clothes" is particularly vivid. As Tian Wen, a native of the Qing Dynasty, pointed out when commenting on the characteristics of Zhang Ji’s poetry: “Famous and witty sentences are often seen side by side, and they are so light and concise.
