Metaphorical meaning by borrowing things

2. plum blossom

When all the flowers wither, only plum blossoms are full of vitality. Facing the snowflakes flying all over the sky, standing proudly in the cold wind. In the middle of winter, the ground is frozen, the weather is cold, and the plum blossoms in the snow are so beautiful. Stock trading is fragrant and refreshing.

White flowers are red, and the petals are smooth and transparent, carved like platinum or jasper, which is somewhat elegant. Some are as bright as the morning glow, some are as white as snow, and some are as green as jasper. Plum blossoms bloom sooner or later. On the same plum tree, you can see all kinds of flowers. Some shy, pink buds are fresh and lovely; Some just bloomed, and a few little bees got in and greedily sucked pollen; Some bloom for a long time, and the pink petals make people love; Plum blossoms, which used to be bustling, now have withered petals. When the wind blows the flowers, don't worry that the petals will break. Plum blossoms are not delicate flowers. The colder the weather, the more snow, the more vitality and delicacy it will bloom. There is a saying in the ancients: "The sword front comes from sharpening, and the plum blossom fragrance comes from bitter cold." It is not the gentle spring breeze that blows it, but the cold wind; It is not the cool and sweet rain that moistens it, but the cold ice and snow; It is not the bright sunshine that shines on it, but a ray of setting sun in the cold. Only a challenging life is a good life. It was a proud fragrance in the cold, and she smiled more brightly in the face of fluttering snowflakes. It never competes with flowers for bright spring and never shows off its beauty. It has a pair of pride and is never arrogant. Every winter morning, a charming and elegant fragrance wafts from the window.

Let ancient and modern poets and painters praise not only the elegant style, but also its ice.
