Late autumn has arrived, and the red fruits at home have not yet been picked. On this day, I went to the field with my lover to prepare to pick red fruits. Along the way, I actually saw a few inconspicuous wildflowers, and I was amazed that they were still in bloom when it was so cold!
They are not as charming as roses, not as fragrant as lilies, and not as endearing as peony flowers. But they have a tenacious vitality! As we all know, people like to serve those beautiful potted flowers, but they forget that wildflowers exist. People water and fertilize those flowers every day, and even prune the shape, but they never pay attention to the wildflowers, but the wildflowers grow very vigorously and the colors are very gorgeous.
Wildflowers bloom the most in spring and summer, and perhaps the wildflowers know that they are part of nature, and they know that they are weak, but they are very united, and they bloom in pieces. I remember once seeing wildflowers on the side of the road, it was raining, and a few wildflowers were shaking and struggling, and the trembling green leaves stretched out vigorously. Colorful flowers are trying to bloom, as if fighting against the wind and rain. Wildflowers, almost like a stubborn little girl, their heads pressed down by the storm again and again, but they stubbornly raised their heads again and again. That's how wildflowers take root willfully!
Famous mountains and rivers, where is there no shadow of wildflowers? But wherever wild grass grows, there will be wildflowers blooming, what a beautiful flower! Some are like white clouds, densely covered by the turquoise stream; some are like jade carvings, with clusters of clumps lying on the earthen mounds; some are like stars, scattered in the vast desert fields; some are like flames, and the stars are dotted in the lonely and cold woods and corners... They do not have a gorgeous appearance and an intoxicating fragrance, but they are all decorated with the earth and mountains with their unique posture, and with their light and simple fragrance, they are given to nature and dedicated to people
You see those nameless wildflowers, no one waters, no one cultivates, they can't be loved and praised like the flowers in the garden, but they grow tenaciously, do not compete for fame, do not seek fame, and open in obscurity. Regardless of terrain, no need to take care of, vigorous growth. Without care, free and tenacious to live in the vast world.
Wildflower is the spirit of nature, its wild wild growth is not outstanding, but it also has a desire for life, the pursuit of spring, it takes root in the soil, nestles in the earth, welcomes the spring wind with the earth, and celebrates the golden autumn with the earth.
Looking at these wildflowers, looking down and contemplating, it seems that Tian Zhen's song sounds in his ears: For whom do the wildflowers on the mountain bloom and for whom do they fail? Quietly waiting for someone to pick...
But wildflowers are like this, not for anyone to bloom or for whom to lose, whether someone picks them or not, they bloom as brilliantly and colorfully! I love the colorful wildflowers, they dot the earth like a picture, they show tenacious vitality, they inspire me to work hard in a harsh environment...
