    出其东门,有女如云。虽则如云,匪我思存。
    缟衣綦巾,聊乐我员。

    出其闉闍,有女如荼。虽则如荼,匪我思且。
    缟衣茹藘,聊可与娱。

            不喜欢这首诗,太明显了,这是个虚荣自恋的男人在表达自己的感情——如果喜欢一个人,那就认真简单的去爱就可以了,没必要去和如云如荼的其他人做比较,弄得自己和个情圣似的。唉,看来这样的无耻之徒,古已有之。相比之下,我更4657cb35bd78606d251f14bb喜欢“谁谓荼苦,其甘若荠”里面的那个傻子,乐颠颠的为自己的小窝忙活,用我一个同事的茂腔唱词:“小日子过得是甜如蜜~~”

           在这首诗里提到了“荼”。很多人认为“荼”就是现在的茶,可我宁愿认为它是田间地头常见的苦菜。诗经时代的歌者,是惯于用最纯朴的事物来抒发情感的。茶在中原并不常见,能被“如火如荼”的形容事物茂盛的,也只能是这遍地盛开的苦菜花了。

           苦菜在崂山非常多,而且本身有很多品种:有植株较小,开黄白色单瓣花的;有叶片宽厚,开黄白重瓣花的,基本都可以采食。

           由于这种植物非常耐旱,即使在贫瘠的土地上也可以正常的生长,所以在饥馑的年头,它经常被用来做救荒植物。想象先辈们或有因此而得以延续血脉,对这再普通不过的植物,也心存敬意。

           不过说实话,这菜太苦了,我是实在接受不了,可是奇怪的是,我的奶奶和姥姥都很喜欢吃,记得每到清明节,总是让我去采些鲜嫩的回来生食,谓之一年不吃哑巴亏,呵呵,借口罢了,那么大年纪,哪来的什么哑巴亏?!现在两个老人早就不在了,每年寒食扫祭,都会看到她们的坟上总会有一些苦菜在发芽,一定是年轻时都曾经有过如云如荼的美丽吧——中原的女人,经历三千年的风霜,依然纯朴芬芳。
