Rejoice under the acacia tree: Walking in the lakeside park square in the morning, the refreshing morning breeze sends a long-lost and familiar smell. Looking for incense, oh, it turned out to be an acacia tree shaped like a bonsai, and the flowers were in full bloom, filled with a refreshing fragrance. Nowadays, this kind of acacia tree is rare in both the city and the countryside. Witnessing this tree is like discovering a treasure that has been polished by time, and you can fish it out from the depths of your memory and savor it. As a child, this tree was called the hibiscus flower, also known as the velvet tree, because its leaves bloom day and night and I remember it deeply. As long as it is in the clear summer sun, it is full of vitality, the feathers stretch emerald green, and the velvet flowers shine brightly. Look at a tree with green leaves and red flowers in the distance, covered with a layer of crimson in the green of the tree, delicate and beautiful, pleasing to the eye; Up close, the fine leaves, the fluffy flowers, the cute flowers are soft and soft, composed of a strip of pollen-covered filaments, like a pink folding fan with a handle, and also like a small plush brush, blooming among the dense emerald green branches. After the beautiful flowers wither, the velvet flowers fly down like small parachutes, and the head of the skill will be hung with strings of long pods like wind chimes.
"Acacia" is not only reflected in the simultaneous closure of flowers and leaves, but also the small broken leaves are also born in pairs. The ancients had long said that "juān (meaning to eliminate grievances and be good), and the grass forgets its worries". Li Yu, a Qing dynasty, said that "Xuancao relieves worries, and acacias and indignation, all of which are beneficial to human feelings." ...... Whoever sees this flower is overjoyed, and the broken nose is a laugh, and the grass can not be planted, and the acacia must not be planted. It can be seen that when encountering acacia flowers, it should be angry and dissolved into a happy face, crying and smiling. Acacia trees and mimosa trees are close relatives. Whenever the sun sets, the golden finger of the sunset touches, and the acacia tree is like a mimosa, and the branches and leaves shrink and sag and close, like a closed "umbrella" it is time to sleep. Shi Tiesheng, a writer who "his profession is sick, and his amateur is writing", once had an essay reminiscent of his mother, "Acacia Tree", and his mother dug a small seedling on the side of the road as a mimosa to go home for maintenance, and later grew bigger and bigger before he knew that it was an acacia tree.
Standing under the acacia tree, pink filigree, green pods, swaying childhood memories. Hours catch the sharp-headed, big-bellied praying mantis under the acacia tree, teasing it to wield two "big knives" to confront; At night, under the tree, the monkeys used flashlights to pick up the shells of golden cicadas; Before the heavy rain came, the ants under the trees hurriedly moved; Climb up the tree to pick the flower handle that first reveals the red silk point and pick it in your mouth, imitating the appearance of adults spewing clouds and spitting fog and smoking... It is really "the teenager does not know the taste of sorrow, and the child is happy under the acacia tree"! When the leaves are lost on the trees in autumn and winter, the dried yellow pods are also cleaned and collected for lighting the stove and crackling in the fire. The footsteps of the years have turned the scenery around them into beautiful memories. The park where the acacia tree encountered is called Taiping Park, the surrounding residents come here for fitness, dancing, dancing, sword dancing, kite flying, tai chi, blowing and playing and singing, etc., every day in an endless stream, its music and harmony, it is really a picture of "acacia tree under the joy of rejoicing, taiping garden to enjoy taiping" ah!
