The wind by the sea cracked the frozen mud, and the leaves of the phoenix tree fell off the branches and broke.
The sound of the flute in the snow-capped mountains is not seen, but it is only in the background of Tianshan snow that a red flag is heading for the peak.
This is a rhyming quatrain about marching in the snow, and the whole poem is magnificent. The environment faced by the soldiers in the army is extremely harsh: the cold wind blows at the foot of Tianshan Mountain, the frozen mud on the lake ("seaside") cracks one after another, the leaves on the buttonwood tree have been scraped off, and the branches have been blown off by the strong wind. In this harsh background, the reflection of snow-capped mountains and the sound of flutes are deafening. The poet used this flute to remind people of someone here, but at the same time, he hid people and caused suspense by "not seeing people"-where did the flute sound in the wind come from? Looking for prestige, I saw a red flag moving to the peak against the white snow in Tianshan Mountain. The red flag didn't mess in the snowstorm, which showed the spirit of the soldiers. The dynamic description of "going straight" makes the picture more vivid, and the high fighting spirit and indomitable spirit are permeated in this word "going straight".
This poem is good at setting off and skillfully using reference objects in art, describing the environment in one sentence or two, trying to highlight the harsh natural environment, setting off the fearless spirit of the soldiers in the army and having a strong atmosphere. Imagine how you can see high morale and strength if you March under sunny and beautiful conditions. In order to meet the needs of atmosphere description, the rhyme is entered into the rhyme foot, and the last word of the first, second and fourth sentences is entered into the rhyme. "Crack", "Fold" and "Snow" are all rhyming words with broken tone, and the rhyme ending is the tip of the tongue, which is short and suitable for expressing sadness or strong poetry.
The description of the atmosphere and the choice of entering rhyme in the first two sentences laid a good foundation for expressing magnificent poetry. But foil is foil after all, and the key to the success or failure of description lies in three or four sentences as the main body. The last two sentences were intended to write about people, but they were not written directly, let alone completely. On the contrary, they just pick out two things related to people-"flute" and "red flag". They don't talk about people, but exist from themselves. The use of this borrowing technique not only saves pen and ink, but also enriches the artistic capacity of the works, giving readers a broad imagination space. There are countless items in the army, only flutes and flags are written, not only because only flutes and red flags will be found in the distance, but also because only these two things can best express the spirit of marching soldiers. When writing, write "flute sound" first, and then write "red flag straight up", which is in line with the general habit that people often pay attention to distant things "sound first, then shape". Particularly ingenious is the embedding of the word "nobody". "Hearing the sound" and looking for someone, but "missing", thus forming the ups and downs of the literary situation, making the moving scene of the last sentence more obvious and clear into people's eyes.
"March" is both poetic and picturesque, and has the vastness of mountains. Rows of red flags, snow, red flags, static mountains and moving flags present a magnificent snow March map.
