Spring flowers
Author | Ju Tong Ai
The snow and ice have not yet melted, and the earth has not yet awakened in the cold wind. I wandered through the mountains, looking at the yellow grass and bare branches, and a wave of regret welled up in my heart. Occasionally I caught a glimpse of a small shrub in the cliff, its branches soft and slender, turquoise and turquoise, very neatly stretched. Between the leaf armpits, there are golden bell-like flowers, yellow and brilliant ripples on the branches, feminine and charming on cold days, you can smell a sweet fragrance from a distance, straight into people's hearts, the aftertaste is long...
yes! Spring flowers, which are the first to tell people – spring is coming.
Yingchun flower, also known as Yingchun, yellow frangipani, golden belt, because it blooms earliest among the hundred flowers, but after flowering, it ushers in the spring of a hundred flowers.

"Shen Shen Hua Province locks the red dust, and suddenly the flowers and branches feel new." It is the Yingchun of the Song Dynasty Liu Chang's pen...
Although the spring flowers do not have the beauty of the world, they do not have the charming fragrance.

With its tenacious vitality, not to be left behind, dare to strive to be the first branch of the spring wind, and give people the spirit of determination to work hard.
