One plant a day: plane
Poetry flowers
The autumn wind blows broad leaves, and the courtyard is accompanied by lone lights.
Where do the leaves fall without knowing? But leave the incense in the belly.
The window swaying leaves are stuffy tea guests, and the second leaf of the fang knows the sycamore.
Withstand the autumn wind and shake the sound, accompany the good people into the dream!
- "French Sycamore"
