In August and autumn, the wind roared and rolled up my three hairs. Hair flew over the river and sprinkled on the periphery of the river. The highest one hangs a long forest tip, and the lower one floats to Shentang 'ao.

The children in Nancun bully me, and I can't stand being a thief in the opposite direction and openly carrying Mao into the bamboo forest. My lips are burnt, my mouth is dry, and I can't breathe. When I came back, I sighed at my staff.

In an instant, the wind will set the color of the clouds and ink, and the autumn will be bleak and dark. This cloth has been as cold as iron for many years, and Joule has been lying down and cracking. There is no dry place in the bedside table, and the feet are numb with rain. What's the point of getting wet all night?

There are tens of millions of luxury houses in Ande, which greatly protect the poor people in the world from the spring breeze and the wind and rain! Oh! When I suddenly see this house in front of me, I will freeze to death alone!

6. The sentence describing autumn is 1. In the hole in the field below, the rice is ripe, and it seems that someone has spread a thick layer of gold on the ground.

The autumn wave shakes the ear of rice, making the heavy ear of rice swing rhythmically, as if the golden mountain is sliding. Wind and waves are like moving music.

It is vast and rich, quiet and far away. Farmers burn weeds and sundries in the fields. Some people say it is "burning autumn". With a strong smell of herbs, smoke fills the air and slowly rises to the sky. How many romantic fantasies fly with the smoke ... at this time, I found all my feelings dissolved in the smoke. Speaking of burning autumn, I think of cool autumn. In the rustling sound, there are cleaners sweeping the fallen leaves all night.

After sweeping, pile the autumn leaves into a pile; Soon, the thick and faint light smoke curled up and dispersed, just like the autumn fog in the mountains in the morning, which was the light smoke burning in autumn leaves and filled with thick fragrance. 3. The ears of rice in Huang Chengcheng are hung with heavy heads, and cotton peaches are like small trees, bursting with egg-like tidbits.

Ah, not rice fields, but an ocean of gold; Not a cotton field, but a world of silver. 4. Gradually lift the full moon into the sky.

A transparent gray cloud, lightly covering the moonlight, seems to be a wisp of light smoke in the field, as if falling into a dream. After the sunset glow passed, the smoke in the fields disappeared, and the water was as clear as light, washing the soft autumn night.

Miss Qiu came in wearing a golden coat. In the fields and Shan Ye, among the flowers in the orchard, autumn flies like a gust of wind, giving people a picture.

Mature corn can't wait to take off clothes and show off. Huang Cancan sent away the passionate summer, cool in the continuous autumn rain, and gentle autumn came to me. 6. The dusk in late autumn always comes quickly, and the sun sets in the western hills before the water vapor evaporated by the sun dissipates in Shan Ye.

As a result, the blue wind in the valley, with a strong coolness, drove the white fog and wandered down the mountain; The shadow of the mountain peak fell on the village more quickly, and the shadow became thicker and thicker, gradually blending with the night, but it was soon dyed silver-gray by the moonlight candle. 7. Autumn is beautiful, desolate and deep.

Autumn sky, autumn weeds, autumn jungle, autumn streams, autumn colors and autumn breath. What does Yining have? Chatting with Ye Qiu.

When gorgeous leaves, such as rosy clouds and golden butterflies, fall with the wind, each piece is filled with enthusiasm for flying, melting all my expectations and tenderness into the reverie of autumn wind. Seduce people to taste a pot of newly brewed chrysanthemum tea in the drunken sunset, with the fragrance of autumn flowing between their lips and teeth.

In the misty rain, how many Zen-like solitary boats are swaying, wandering among the beautiful mountains and green waters, and the brow is full of endless calmness and leisure. 8. Autumn is a beautiful season; Autumn, although not as lively as spring when flowers are in full bloom, has golden and attractive fruits; Autumn, beauty, beauty is simple, beauty is mature.

Autumn brings not only fruits, but also people's joy! Autumn also brings joy to the fields. 9. vilen is naked in autumn.

Not as prosperous, eye-catching and colorful as spring; It is not as warm as summer, so carefully shaped, so moody and changeable. Autumn is autumn. Autumn honestly gives everything to nature. It faces cold, maturity and the return of leaves.

Don't be surprised if you find two clusters of red Yun Ni on the Yuan Ye in autumn. It is not the flower soul of spring, but the red maple, which is the chilling beauty of autumn. But be careful, your hands and your heart will turn autumn into jade at any time.

No wonder there are few clouds swimming in the sky, because when the clouds look up a little, they will melt into light blue in autumn. 10, autumn is red, maple leaves are red, persimmons are red, apples are red, and red faces are like red lanterns.

Looking at this autumn field, I think that autumn is not the season of withering, but it is full of vitality. Autumn is beautiful.

I like the fields in autumn. 1 1. Autumn has come, with many fallen leaves. Autumn is crisp and fruitful. How charming! Looking at the fields in spring, summer, autumn and winter, the most beautiful and attractive is the autumn fields.

12, autumn night, Gao Lu is thick, and a crescent moon hangs quietly on the southwest horizon. The cold moon shines on the earth, so dark, but the stars in the galaxy are getting brighter and brighter.

In the dense and boundless fields of sorghum, corn and millet, this song sounded the sound of autumn insects, and occasionally accompanied by several accompaniment, the fruit blew on the ground intermittently, like a cold eggplant. Willow branches hang quietly on the side of the road, and the shadows cover the winding path of weeds.

13. On the hillside, an ear of sorghum stands proudly. Autumn wind blows, they are like handfuls of victory torches, shaking happily.

14. In the small vegetable garden, the vegetables are ripe. Look, the coriander girl is combing her hair, the pumpkin is sleeping, and the chrysanthemums are fragrant.

15, looking up at the sky, I saw a flock of geese flying from the north to the south. They fly in neat queues in the air, changing the lineup, one word a minute, one adult word a minute, one big character a minute ... 16, and there are trees on both sides of a section of the road.

Wearing a cotton-padded coat in summer and a blouse in winter has lost a lot of weight. A gust of wind blows, leaves fall down one after another, red, yellow and flowery ... like a fairy scattering flowers, and like thousands of colorful butterflies flying in the air.

17, there is a red "face" hidden in the golden leaves; The fallen leaves on the ground are like a golden path; The wild flowers on the roadside are purple, orange, red, pink and yellow ... just like colored gems embedded in the road. Good joke: The autumn weather is getting colder. Pieces of withered and yellow leaves, like beautiful yellow butterflies, left the warm embrace of mother tree one by one, gently floated down from the tree and landed on grass, rivers and crops.

This fallen leaf seems to be a messenger, telling everyone that "autumn is coming, autumn is coming". The grass also took off its green clothes and put on its golden autumn clothes.

Miss Qiu returned to the world with the joy of falling leaves. In this scene of Huang Chengcheng, all kinds of small flowers seem to be asleep, with their heads down and their hands drooping, silently waiting for the distant spring.
