Preface Since the publication of Chinese Three-Line Poetry: Theory and Techniques, I have been deeply grateful for the warm reception and the many kind accolades it has garnered. This work systematically explores Chinese three-line poetry from the perspectives of both theoretical foundations and creative practices, offering practical guidelines for many enthusiasts about this poetic form. In response to readers' enthusiastic anticipation, this new book has now come into being as a complementary follow-up, a sister volume to the earlier one. If the former, as the elder sister, delved into the ontological nature and creative theory of three-line poetry, then this volume, like a younger sister, focuses on offering a rich collection of examples to provide readers with intuitive templates for both creative inspiration and appreciative understanding. The title of this book, Gold Goblet Collection-300 Three-Line Poems by Xu Yingcai, reflects my unique feelings toward three-line poetry. I often liken three-line poetry to the ancient Chinese ceremonial vessel known as the "goblet" (¿, jué), as both share subtle harmony in form and significance. A goblet is exquisitely crafted, luminous, and designed to hold fine wine, a precious vessel granted by the Son of Heaven to his vassals. Similarly, three-line poetry, though compact, distills vast ideas into a small, potent space. Like fine wine, a well-crafted three-line poem deepens and enriches with each savoring, leaving a lingering fragrance in the mind. The artistic essence of this idea is encapsulated in my opening poem of the book:The Wine Brewed in My HeartNeeds no cauldronHeld in a gobletDrifting afar with richness, aftertaste, and fragrance This book collects 300 three-line poems I have written over recent years, spanning a wide range of themes: some express emotions through nature, painting grand portraits of the world; others describe objects and convey aspirations, illustrating the myriad forms of life; still others capture the pulse of reality, chronicling the changes of the times. Each poem carries its own emotional depth and creative intent: some articulate profound truths about life, others craft vivid imagery, some capture poignant moments, while others express subtle emotions. Through these poems, readers can discover the diverse facets and deeper meanings of three-line poetry. My deep affection for three-line poetry stems from its unique artistic character and contemporary relevance. In today's fast-paced society, where people are often hustling and bustling about, the opportunity to sit down and create long, intricate works is often a luxury. Three-line poetry offers a refreshing alternative, providing a perfect poetic form for modern individuals who crave both brevity and depth. Regardless of time or place, one can express profound thoughts and philosophical reflections in just three lines. Conciseness does not equate to simplicity, and brevity does not imply shallowness; three-line poetry often conveys the deepest emotions in the most economical language, leaving the reader with endless room for contemplation.
