无声诗（彩墨）

有道是：“诗是有声画；画是无声诗。”诗中有画，画中有诗。想想，那是何等高妙的境界。

有时候，我看到一张图画，有极佳妙的构图以及唯美的色彩，油然也会有一股“诗情”的感发。山云的色彩，树林的形影，给人以如诗似画的感触，使人有往画里走进去的冲动。

一般而言，“诗中有画”似乎比较能让人体悟──因为诗是文字构成的，以文字来叙事，自然比较能叙述出画境来。但单看一幅画，要说出诗意来就不那么容易了。画究竟是无言的，要叙述出诗意来，就得靠文字来表达、发挥，单有“诗情的触发”是不够的。如果文笔不佳，文学修养不够，无法使用或驾驭文字，那如何能叙述出诗情来？感觉有“诗意”，但又说不上来，表达不出来，那也是遗憾且是不足的。＠

Soundless Poem/ink and color painting

It is said that “poems are paintings with sound, and paintings are soundless poems.” There are paintings in poetry, and poetry in paintings—Isn’t this a wonderful state?

Sometimes, when I see a drawing or painting with a very fine composition and exquisite colors, I unconsciously experience a “poetic state.” The colors of the mountains and clouds, and forms and shadows of the forest, bring to mind paintings or poems, and make people feel as if they have walked into a painting.

Generally speaking, the expression “a painting in poetry” gives people the biggest jolt of recognition. This is because poetry is composed of written words, and uses writing to express a narrative. As a result, it can naturally relate the scene in a painting. But when one only views of painting, it is sometimes difficult to find the poetry. Paintings have no words. One must rely on written words to express and appreciate poetry; to only “trigger a poetic feeling” is insufficient. If one’s writing skills are poor, one’s knowledge of literature is insufficient, and one cannot use or apply writing, how can one express a poetic feeling? To have a poetic feeling, but be unable to talk about it or express it, is regrettable and inadequate.@
