1. "Mountain Village Odyssey" Shao Yong, Song Dynasty
After going two or three miles, there are four or five houses in Yancun. There are six or seven pavilions with eighty or ninety flowers.
The poet uses the method of "primary school counting" to describe the beautiful rural scenery one by one, which is easy to understand, as if the picture is right in front of you.
2. "The Picture of a Hundred Birds Returning to their Nests" by Lun Wenxu of the Song Dynasty
One after another, three, four, five, six or seven eight birds returned.
There are so few phoenixes and so many birds, they can eat up thousands of stones in the world.
Why is the title of this article "Hundred Birds"? The answer lies in the poem. The sum of two ones, three fours, five sixes, and seven eights is one hundred (1+1+3×4+5×6+7×8=100). Have you found this rule?
3. "Broken Heart Confusion" by Zhu Shuzhen of the Song Dynasty
Going downstairs, the money fell;
Ask the sky, where is the person?
I hate the king and my grandson and keep going away;
I am an enemy and it is hard to stay if I say goodbye.
I regret that I made a mistake at the beginning, and I handed over more than I did to others.
Why do you need to ask?
You don’t need a knife to separate. From now on, don’t rely on your enemies. Thousands of lovesickness can be written off in one go.
Have you found the clue to the poem above? Did you find the hidden number? Each sentence of Zhu Shuzhen's work serves as a riddle of the "splitting grid" rhetoric, and the answer happens to be the ten numbers "one, two, three...ten".
4. "Picture of Fishing Alone on the Autumn River" by Wang Shizhen of the Tang Dynasty
A coir, a straw hat, a small boat, a foot of silk fiber and an inch of hook.
One song and one bottle of wine, one person fishing alone in the river.
One-character poem, as the name suggests, means that there are many "一" characters in the poem, so the similar items are the characters "一". The word "一" has the fewest strokes, but with clever arrangement by the poet, it can turn the ordinary into magical. Such poems often use line drawing techniques to give readers a strong sense of immersion.
5. "Half and Half Song" Li Mi'an, Qing Dynasty
Seeing through the half of life, the benefits of half are boundless.
Half of the years are spent in leisure, and half of the world is wide.
Half country and half country house, half mountain and half water pastoral.
Half tillage, half reading, half classics, half scholar and half married couple.
Half elegant and half crude utensils, half luxury and half practical courtyard.
The quilt is half plain and half light, and the food is half rich and half frugal.
The child servant is half capable and half clumsy, and the wife and children are half simple and half virtuous.
The mood is half Buddha and half god, and the surname is half hidden and half revealed.
Return half to heaven and earth, and give half to the world.
Half thinking about future generations and Cangtian, half thinking about how Yama will meet.
It’s good to be drunk for half a day, and the flowers are blooming half way.
Half the sail is fanned to avoid tipping, and the horse is stable with half the rein.
Half the young people feel comfortable, and the half young people feel tired of entanglement.
A hundred years of bitterness and joy are half the same, and only half of them will be advantageous.
Similar to the above, the similar term of this song "Half and a Half Song" is the word "half". The whole poem is inseparable from the word "half", but it does not feel wordy or cumbersome, but has a kind of phonological beauty.
6. "Dwelling in Dinglin" Wang Anshi, Song Dynasty
The house surrounds the bay, the stream and the bamboo surround the mountain, but the stream and the mountain are among the white clouds.
I put my boat next to the stream and sit on the mountain. I am free to watch the birds, mountains and flowers in the stream.
Compound-word poetry is the repeated use of the same word in each line of the poem. In this poem, the word "brook" appears in every sentence, so the similar term is "brook".
For reference.
