Drunken into the Beautiful Cherry Blossom Rain Prose
In April in the south of the Yangtze River, flowers bloom, grass grows and orioles fly, gentle and charming. Having seen the pink peach blossoms and white pear blossoms, and the green wheat seedlings and yellow cauliflower blossoms, I know that there is another grand flower event quietly inviting me, and that is the charming and colorful cherry blossoms. This season is when the cherry blossoms bloom. Although I see cherry blossoms every spring, every year it feels like I have never seen them before. The elegant and elegant flowers always linger in my heart like a dream, closing and unfolding countless times.
The Yuantouzhu Scenic Area, lying on the peninsula on the northwest coast of Taihu Lake in Wuxi, is one of the three most popular cherry blossom viewing spots in the world. The cherry blossoms planted there have been planted for more than 70 years. It is said that there are 30,000 cherry blossoms, making it the largest cherry blossoms in the country. A specialized garden, it enjoys the reputation of "China's No. 1 cherry blossom viewing resort". In this most beautiful April day in the world, cherry blossoms are undoubtedly the most dazzling protagonist of Yuantouzhu Scenic Area. I checked the weather forecast and found that the weather that had always been fine suddenly had continuous showers during the Qingming Festival, and there was an obvious late spring cold. The cherry blossoms seem to bloom earlier this year. If you don’t go there, you’ll miss it.
From the entrance of Chongshan Gate, along the shore of Lihu Lake with sparkling waves and fluttering green willows, turn towards the Suzuzakura Trail that leads to the secret place of cherry blossoms. What a quiet and quaint little road! There is a feeling of traveling through time and space. If a carriage carrying a woman in ancient costume comes by at this time, you will not be surprised. The path paved with bluestones winds up the mountain, and then winds down to the Cherry Blossom Valley on the other side of the mountain. On both sides are dead trees and new green trees, wild flowers and weeds criss-crossing the sky. Above the head, the sound of birds chirping is endless, and there are cherry blossoms on every tree. They began to appear in front of me one after another, as if they were coming towards me from a Tang poem. However, it is still a little late, and some early cherry blossoms have already grown half of their young leaves.
The rain has been falling, sometimes frivolously, sometimes softly. Even so, there is still an endless stream of tourists, some holding umbrellas, some wearing ponchos, talking and laughing all the way, and everyone's face is filled with spring. With the breath of my heart, I rush to this grand feast that is "like a brocade, full of charming eyes, and faintly fragrant, making bees crazy". "The cherry blossoms will bloom on ten days, but it will take a thousand days to circle the flowers." Breathe the fresh air after the rain and feel the vitality of all things. There are ten miles of fragrant paths and sparse shadows. Going to watch a cherry blossom show with joy is to experience the process of life!
So many cherry blossoms! Rows and rows, one by one, leaning on the spring branches, like young girls in love, with low eyebrows and smiles, graceful and graceful, are scattered all over the intersections, hillsides, and waterfronts of Yuantouzhu. They are just waiting for the east wind to come, and they will bloom without hesitation. Of course, I can’t say when it will bloom, let alone which tree will bloom first, which one will bloom later, and which tree will be waiting for me on the roadside that I must pass by? The flowering period only lasts a few days. Beautiful things are short-lived, aren't they?
Deep in the cherry blossom forest, some red and dark pink double-petaled cherry blossoms, belonging to the late cherry blossom category, are in full bloom. These double-petaled cherry blossoms do not bear fruit and are usually found along the streets in parks. They are extremely beautiful. ordinary. The graceful weeping cherry blossoms are also blooming, leaving beautiful smiling faces under the shadow of the flowers. I like the single-petal white cherry blossoms and pink cherry blossoms the most. They are tall trees with small flower stalks, exquisite and densely arranged. The flowers are five-petal shaped, thin and light. After blooming, the petals fall one after another. The white is so pure, like jade carved from ice; the pink is so tender and moist, like a dream, and the blossoms are like baby's skin. Every time you look at it, you feel that it is beautifying your soul.
Stepping into the scenic spot of the dock, which is surrounded by mountains and faces the lake, the green mountains are hidden and beautiful, and the lake is covered with gauze. Looking at the rippling periwinkle flowers in the distance, they are graceful in a pool of water between Wanwanxuan and Jiangxuexuan. The towering bridge shape and reflection form a round shape with graceful lines. On the cherry blossom embankment, the red and white "Somei Yoshino" cherry blossoms float like clouds, and in the lake, the flowing water chases away the falling flowers. What a poetic landscape painting.
Along the way, the creek sang, the cherry blossoms were fragrant, the flying petals and the drizzle fell on the heads and shoulders, overwhelming, so light, so ethereal, with a kind of Zen beauty . It reminds me of the Song Dynasty poet Seng Zhinan's sentence "My clothes are wet with apricot blossom rain, and my face is not cold by the willow wind." It is so appropriate at this moment. The spring breeze is blowing, falling flowers are flying, walking and looking at the flowers, it is What a beautiful thing! I particularly like Yan Jidao's "The Falling Flower Man is Independent, and the Swift Swallows Fly Together". He imagines a preoccupied and infatuated woman, dressed in white as the snow, with long hair shawl, standing alone in the drizzle with dancing cherry blossoms, swallows flying low around the beams, and she Her tender eyes looked into the distance quietly, letting the petals fall on her black hair and thin shoulders. What a beautiful artistic conception.
Climb up to the cherry blossom viewing tower and have a panoramic view of the entire Cherry Blossom Valley. The cherry blossoms like clouds and clouds extend from the foot of Luding Mountain to the bank of Taihu Lake. The layers of cherry blossoms are all over the mountains and fields, with piles of clouds and snow, which contrast with the winding streams, pavilions and pavilions. The pavilion with green eaves swaying around the wind chimes offers different surprises from every direction. Oh, cherry blossoms, their flowing sleeves dancing in the drizzle, their charming eyes hidden in their white teeth, which made me intoxicated and bewildered.
The flowers are similar every year, but the people are different every year. Spring is easy to grow old, and time is always easy to throw people away. Flowers are like people, and people are like flowers. They meet in spring, and part again in spring. In a cherry blossom rain, it is not the petals that wither, but a heart! Looking down on the vicissitudes of the world, in front of the green trees and white flowers, I suddenly understood that life is a gorgeous exile.
The reason why the integrity of the cherry blossoms is shocking is that perhaps, no flower is more thrilling than the blooming of the cherry blossoms, and no flower is more heart-wrenching than the decisiveness of the cherry blossoms! In its most beautiful moment, it just cherishes the encounter with spring even more, so it drives with all its strength, and grows old without hesitation, waiting for reunion in the next life.
The flower language of cherry blossoms is warm, pure and noble. It is a symbol of love and hope. People standing under the cherry blossom trees to enjoy the flowers, in addition to the old people with frosty temples, innocent and cute children and calm middle-aged people, what is even more eye-catching are the happy and sweet couples, who are enjoying themselves in the cherry blossom rain. Cheers and joy, children’s love. They must understand the language of flowers. If you love me, please love me deeply! Even the moment of youthfulness is the eternal ink blue and white in life.
"The cherry blossoms are on the red streets, the willows are green by the pond; the sound of swallows is singing, and I miss another year of lovesickness." If the poems written by the Prime Minister when he was still a young man expressed concern about the future of the country, then those who look at the flowers today are not pursuing a better life.
When we parted, the cherry blossoms were still raining in abundance, and we were about to say goodbye. They were as light as a dream and as thin as sorrow. When the breeze blew, they turned into a fragrant fragrance all over the path!
