"Two Poems in Place of a Gift"
The first one
When I want to stop looking at the dusk from the top floor, the jade ladder is broken and the moon is like a hook.
The banana does not expand and the clove is tied, both facing the spring breeze and worrying separately.
"Two Poems in Place of a Gift" is written by Li Shangyin, a famous Tang Dynasty poet. The first poem, the one above, describes the longing view at dusk and the scenery seen from the top of the building, which triggers melancholy thoughts.
Translating into colloquial language means:
When dusk falls, I climb the high楼 alone, my desire is at rest, the staircase is blocked, the bright moon is like a hook. The heart of the banana has not yet unfolded, and the clove is also tangled and not open. They both face the spring breeze, but each has their own worries.
The so-called clove knot refers to the flower bud that grows on the branch of the clove when it is not yet open, called a clove knot.
The clove flowers are delicate and fragile, with slightly longer flower tubes, giving a feeling of about to bloom but not yet open. At the same time, the unopened clove flowers are like tangled worries that cannot be resolved, so many poems about clove flowers have feelings of separation and sorrow.
Therefore, clove flowers are often used to describe the melancholic thoughts and depression when couples or friends are separated.
The season when clove flowers are in full bloom is the second month of spring, the second month of the lunar calendar, known as the middle of spring because it is in the middle of the Spring Festival.
When clove flowers are in bloom, they have a beautiful appearance and a fragrant smell. They have high ornamental and landscaping effects and are suitable for planting in gardens, scenic spots, and courtyards.
In addition to their ornamental value, clove flowers also have a certain purification effect because they can absorb sulfur dioxide.
As for the symbolic meaning represented by clove flowers, it symbolizes "a thriving population".
Why is that so?
