There are three parks near my house, namely: Ditan Park, Youth Lake Park, Liuyin Park, plus an outer garden, the North Moat River Scenic Area. This is a fortunate thing for a cloth coat.
In the extremely hot summer, I always like to go to Liuyin Park to stroll and cool off, silently reading some lotus ink and willow rhymes, butterfly shows and childlike fun.
The park is planted with different plants, among which the "Another Village" scenic spot is quite rural, which is very calming at a glance. The symbol of The Park is the willow tree, which is famous for its shade of willow trees in summer.
This year's summer came in a hurry, and the wind was hot and hot. In June, when I walked into the park with my family in the morning, I felt the enthusiasm of the lake breeze. However, the wild fun of the garden makes people feel a cool breath from the heart. This kind of pristine character of deep verdant grass is really quiet.
Let's start with calamus and reeds, which sway wildly in the wind, sometimes bending over to splash in the water, sometimes joking with bees and butterflies. In addition, the golden weeping willows at the water's edge, with long hair to drive away the heat wave, like a mischievous girl, the wild air is full of beauty. And the intoxicating fragrance of the evergreen bush suddenly came from all directions, and there was a momentum of not giving up on the incense.
It is only because of the cleanliness of the city people that the insects are driven away with a large amount of insecticide, and there is very little wild fun of life, only a few butterflies and bees, sacrificing their lives to chase beauty and search among the flowers. This scene makes people feel touched and ashamed. Today's urban parks, most of the artificial carvings are too grand, although they look neat and orderly, but intentionally or unintentionally erase a lot of natural factors. For example, on the south shore of Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace, the Royal Garden, in the past few years, there were still many calamus, reeds and lotuses, but later for unknown reasons, most of them disappeared, which is very regrettable. In this way, it seems a bit pretentious, like a noble lady who is too heavy to describe, and it is good to look at one glance, but it is a little empty to look at two eyes.
A scenic spot, carved too fine and loses the beauty of nature, is the reason why the aesthetic orientation tends to be sick. For today's urbanites, it is a slight luxury to hear the sounds of frogs, cicadas, grasshoppers and birds chirping, and to see dragonflies flying around. This cannot but be sad. How can man forget that he is a natural man?
Willow Park's efforts in this regard are commendable. For example, the golden duckweed in the lake is a wild flower, and it is appropriately allowed to reproduce without indulgence, which is very heart-warming and eye-catching. This year's lotus leaf growth is extremely strong, strong and vibrant, and the so-called lotus leaf field is also. The time they light the red candles one by one is not far away, so let's wait and see. The anxious water lily, however, was the first to climb, and this lake of life was much more feminine and poetic.
Water lilies, as the name suggests, are also sleeping beauties in flowers. In the early grasslands, water lilies could not be seen. I first learned about the species of water lilies because I read a poem by a modern poet: "The fragrance of water lilies, drunk in Hangzhou." "The poet's name is not very clear, but this beautiful line of poetry is engraved in the heart and has not been forgotten for decades. Later, when I read the poems about water lilies by Li Qingzhao, a female lyricist of the Song Dynasty, I was even more impressed, as if she was a long-term friend of God.
Water lilies, also known as meridian lilies and cress flowers, are a noble family of aquatic flowers. There are many varieties, such as white water lilies, soft hairy tooth leaf water lilies, medicinal water lilies, fragrant water lilies, Marsan girls and so on. Legend has it that the water lily is the goddess of the mountain swamp, which shows how impressive its shadow is.
The shape of the water lily is similar to that of the lotus flower, except that the leaves and flowers of the lotus flower stand out of the water, while the leaves and flowers of the water lily float on the surface of the water. Water lilies are known as "sleeping beauties in flowers" because of their day and night rolls. Not only Chinese have a special love for it, but foreigners also love it very much. The blue water lily is the national flower of ancient Egypt. India, Bangladesh and other countries also use water lilies as their national flowers.
The ancient Chinese people have long discovered the noble quality of lotus flowers out of the mud without staining, and many praise. And why not water lilies? It is not impetuous or charming, quiet and elegant, and indisputable from the world. It doesn't like to show off its posture, compete for the wind and be jealous, and snort and tease the outliers. Just close to the current, with the sun and the moon, and with the wind and rain.
Tonight, the lotus flowers in Liuyin Park are waiting to be raised red, while the water lilies have bloomed all over the lake. Whether it is from Liuyin Pavilion, Water Moon Pavilion, Zhiyu Gallery, or Ailian Pavilion, you can read its flowing fairy posture and smell its faint aroma. Not to mention the windmill painting boat, accompanying it. Looking at it again, the waters near the shore of the lake are covered with patches of golden duckweed. Although it does not belong to the water lily family, I suspect that it is either a distant relative of the water lily or an imitation of the show. I asked a lot of tourists, all said that it may be a kind of water lily, you see, there are beautiful misreadings. For this, I laughed darkly. Unexpectedly, imitating beauty is not only human nature, but also the hobby of other things.
On the east bank of the lake, there is a water pavilion, and there is a banquet hall on the water pavilion, hidden in the shadow of trees and flowers, like a golden house. The painting boat stood aside, quietly waiting, waiting for a couple of newcomers to step on the red carpet and walk out. The names of the bride and groom ripple in the megaphone and also on the lake. Friends and family looked forward, waiting for the happy smiling faces to bloom. Holding a wedding in such an environment is ingenious. This is more poetic and affinity than holding a wedding in the golden hall of a hotel. This pure and pristine natural beauty adds a touch of joy to the wedding. The beauty of nature decorates the inner world of man. Man, for this reason and a few points of grace.
Undoubtedly, the wedding ceremony held here is a commercial move and has little to do with the function of the park. However, why am I unusual, not disgusted by this, but a little appreciative? Is it because you are confused by the atmosphere of the unity of heaven and man here? Who knows. Anyway, my family and I secretly sent blessings to this couple, wishing them a long time, white heads and old age, being diligent natural people, and becoming happy partners who will never be pretentious.
