I wonder if you have read the poem Farewell to Cambridge. If so, have you understood it? Although I didn't understand it at first, I gradually understood its meaning later.
Farewell to Cambridge is a very beautiful lyric poem. It was written by the poet Xu Zhimo when he visited Britain again in the autumn of 1928 and revisited the old place when poetry flourished. In this poem, the poet described the beautiful scene of Cambridge in a true and delicate way, so it can be seen that Cambridge has left a deep imprint in the poet's heart.
In the first section, Xu Zhimo expressed his grief at leaving his alma mater, Cambridge University, with three soft words in succession. We felt that he came and left gently.
The second and fourth stanzas are a little long, but the author gives a vivid description of the golden willows at sunset in Cambridge, the green flowers on the mud, and the pools under the shade of trees. In fact, this paragraph also uses the figurative rhetoric to compare the golden willows on the river bank to the bride in the setting sun, and the pool under the shade of elm to the rainbow in the sky. If you use this technique, you will find this sentence very beautiful.
In the May 6th Festival, the author used a boat full of stars to sing in the splendor of the stars, but I can't sing and a few reduplicated sentences pushed the poem to a climax. In the last section, there are several whispers that echo the first paragraph. In fact, such a colorful picture is not contradictory to the poet's mood. It is precisely because of the beauty of Cambridge that the poet can hardly give up!
