孙鲂的这组《柳》诗,是唐代咏物诗中的长篇巨制。全诗紧扣“柳”这一主题,从不同时节、不同角度、不同情感出发,极尽描摹之能事,展现了柳树从初春到暮春的万千风姿。 诗歌开篇写二月初柳的茏葱青软,意态风流,继而将其置于历史长河(炀帝河)与广阔时空(晴陌古城)中,点出其“几番荣又枯”的永恒节律,奠定了全组诗既咏物又咏史的深沉基调。后续各首则分别捕捉了柳树的不同瞬间:新柳学舞、柳拂秋千、春物牵情、露压烟濛、碍马行人、御沟悠悠、颠狂絮落、伴风见桃、开眼向人……诗人运用拟人、比喻、对比等多种手法,将柳树比作美人,赋予其情感与生命,写得生动传神,风情万种。 beyond mere description, the poems are imbued with deep emotion. The willow becomes a symbol of the uncontrollable passage of time (“几番荣又枯”), the lingering attachment and helplessness in life (“拟折无端抛又恋”), the loneliness and being bullied (“分外欺凌寂寞人”), and the heartbreak of parting (“年年断客肠”). The historical references further elevate the theme, connecting the fate of the willow to the rise and fall of dynasties, adding a layer of profound historical melancholy. The language is refined and elegant, the imagery is dense and vivid, and the emotional connotation is rich and complex. It is not only a masterpiece of chanting objects, but also a lyrical work that expresses the feelings of the world and reflects on history.
