The verses that use the moon to express reunion are as follows:
1. If this night in this life is not good, where can I see the bright moon next year? ——"Yangguan Song·Mid-Autumn Moon" Su Shi
Appreciation: "This night in my life will not last long. Where can I see the bright moon next year." The last two sentences of this poem say that every time in my life On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moonlight is mostly obscured by wind and clouds, and it is rare to encounter such beautiful scenery as today. It is really rare! But next year's Mid-Autumn Festival, where will I go to watch the moon? .
The bright moon is full, and it is even more time for brothers to reunite. No wonder the poet praised the "goodness" of "this night in this life". From this meaning, "This night in this life will not last long." Good things are rare, so you should enjoy yourself and live up to the meaning of tonight. However, just as the bright moon is full and waning temporarily, life will also be difficult and easy. The brothers are separated, and the poet cannot help but lament the shortness of "this life and this night".
2. People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, and the moon waxes and wanes. This is a difficult thing in ancient times. ——"Water Melody Songtou" Su Shi
Appreciation: Among natural scenes, the moon is very romantic and can easily inspire people's artistic associations. A crescent moon can be associated with budding things; a full moon can be associated with a beautiful life of reunion; the brightness of the moon can be associated with an upright personality. The image of the moon concentrates the infinitely beautiful longings and ideals of human beings.
Structurally, another layer is pushed aside, transitioning from the opposition of man and moon to the fusion of man and moon. Excusing the moon is essentially to emphasize optimism about human affairs and to place hope for the future. Because when the moon is full, people also get together. Very philosophical.
3. The dew is white tonight, and the moon is bright in my hometown. ——"Moonlight Night Remembering My Brother" by Du Fu
Appreciation: "The dew is white tonight", which not only describes the scene, but also highlights the season. It was the night of the White Dew Festival, and the dew was full of dew, which made people feel chilly. "The moon is the brightness of my hometown" is also a description of the scene, but it is slightly different from the previous sentence. What the author writes is not entirely objective reality, but incorporates his own subjective feelings.
During the Anshi Rebellion, Du Fu was displaced and experienced hardships. He was worried about his family and the national crisis. He was really emotional. At the slightest touch, thousands of thoughts flow out from the bottom of the pen, so the common theme of homesickness and family longing is written in such a sad, sad and depressed way.
