Xi Murong's A Flowering Tree
How to let you meet me
In my most beautiful moment
for this reason
I prayed in front of the Buddha for 500 years.
Begging for it makes us have a dusty relationship.
Then the Buddha turned me into a tree.
Follow the path you may take.
In the blooming flowers, I wait in the sun.
Every flower carries my previous hopes.
When you get close,
Listen carefully
Trembling leaves are the passion I am waiting for.
You finally walked past without paying attention.
On the ground behind you
Friend, that's not a petal.
Is it my withered heart?

Creation background
Xi Murong said that in her view, life is a continuous process, process, process, and everything she writes is touched by the scenes of life, although some touches will not be realized until ten or twenty years later.
In order to illustrate his touch in the life scene, Xi Murong described the creation process of a flowering tree. She recalled that she was teaching at Hsinchu Teachers College in Taiwan Province Province.
In May, a train passed through the mountains of Miaoli, and the train kept going in and out of the cave. When the train came out of a long cave, she inadvertently looked back at the mountain behind the cave and saw a tung tree with white flowers on the high hillside.
"At that time, I almost cried. I wonder why there is such a tree, so carefully blooming itself, standing on the hillside like a crown, without seeing green leaves. However, when I was about to look carefully, the tree disappeared as soon as the train turned. "
It is this tung tree that really exists in the scene of Xi Murong's life, and she never forgets it. She thought, just as the sea is blue to herself, flowers are of course carefully given to herself, but if there is no chance for her to turn around, will the flowers on the tree wither one after another? This prompted her to write The Flowering Tree.
