When the day is gone, youth comes naturally. The moss flowers are as small as rice, and they also bloom like peonies. It means: Where the spring breeze and sunshine are not present, youth still sprouts. Even the moss flower, which is as tiny as a grain of rice, is not ashamed at all. It still blooms proudly like the beautiful and noble peony.
This poem is called "Moss" and is a poem written by Yuan Mei, a poet in the Qing Dynasty. Moss is naturally a lower plant, mostly parasitic in dark and moist places, but it also has its own life instinct and life intention, and will not lose the courage to grow because of the harsh environment. The poet can see this and sing about it. Very discerning
Extended information:
"Nowhere during the day" is such a place that is not suitable for life to grow, but the moss grows green and shows its youth , and where does this youth come from? "Youth comes by itself", well, it doesn't come from anywhere, but is created by the vigorous moss itself! It relies on strong vitality to break through the obstacles of the environment and glow with the brilliance of youth.
"Moss flowers are as small as rice" Moss will not bloom.
"Also learn how to bloom peonies" is both humility and pride! Yes, the moss is so small and humble that it cannot be compared with the beautiful and fragrant peonies in the country. However, peonies are admired and carefully cultivated by others, but the moss relies on the power of its own life to strive for the right to bloom like flowers. ——This world does not exist only for a few geniuses and heroes!
