Only the lotus flower is matched with red flowers and green leaves. The lotus leaf has a roll of Shu, and the lotus flower has a bloom, which is so perfect and natural.
Lotus and lotus leaf shine on each other for a long time. When the lotus leaf falls, it withers. What a pity!
-Li Shangyin's "Give the Lotus"
It is the scenery of the West Lake in June, which is really different from other seasons.
Lotus leaves will not turn green the next day, and lotus flowers are particularly bright red in the sun.
We in China have a soft spot for flowers. The so-called "flowers bloom with wealth", "flowers are full of buildings", "flowers are like jade" and "girls are like flowers" are all based on our love for flowers. Look at Li Shangyin's "Giving Lotus" first. Li Shangyin was a famous poet in Tang Dynasty. His poems are famous for their beauty. He often uses poetic language with allusions or vague artistic conception to express his unique views and profound thoughts. His poems give people an obscure and tortuous feeling, especially his Untitled. However, his "Give Lotus" is by no means like this. The poet described the beauty of flowers and leaves in simple and clear language, giving people a beautiful impression. As soon as "Give Lotus" came up, it showed a secular phenomenon: when it comes to flowers and leaves, people generally treat them separately, appreciate flowers and care for them, but ignore leaves, so they put them in a golden basin, take care of them carefully, take a bath for a day, but ignore them and let them wither. Therefore, the twin friendship and brotherhood of lotus leaf and lotus flower were grandly launched: the green lotus leaf, which just showed its sharp corner, was slowly rolled and stretched; The pink lotus blooms gradually, blooming from the bud like an arrow. They open and close and roll, swaying naturally and extremely beautiful, with red leaves and green flowers. Its scenery is beautiful. The poet sincerely praised: "This flower and this leaf often set each other off, reducing the red and killing people." How he hopes that the flowers will grow green and flourish until the green ones are reduced and the red ones are gone, and they will still shine. From this description, we can see that the lotus is really different. They help each other and reflect each other. They are unique among the flowers and show their unique charm.
