Spring is coming. The trees in front of my house will bloom in a few days. When I see beautiful scenery, my feeling is always good. But peachblossom's florescence is very short, these flowers will fall on the ground in a few days. So sometimes people say that the imagery of peachblossom is beautiful woman, youth or life. But in fact, living in seclusion is an important imagery of peachblossom in ancient times, it symbolize people's ideal life. From "Notes on the land of Peach Blossoms" we knew that a fishman found a Peach Grove where there were many beautiful peach trees, with flowers in full bloom, spacious houses in good order, rich soil, and many people lived in there happily. The author created a beautiful world for us. Although we don't live in that beautiful world, I think, everyone has his own Peach Garden.
这几天气温明显回升,室外的树木都开始发芽了,过不了几天,院子的桃花就会全开,春天就真正开始了。看到美景,人的心情自然也好。不过桃花的花期不长,如梦如幻的美景也只不过只有一周左右就开始凋落了。所以有的人会说桃花的意象就是那些美好的容颜,逝去的青春,或者短暂的生命。
但其实在古代,桃花不仅有这些意象,还有一个重要的意象就是隐逸。最好的例子就是我们小时候都学过的陶渊明的《桃花源记》:一个捕鱼人发现了一个纯美的世界,在那个世界里,土地平旷,屋舍俨然,在那个世界里,黄发垂髫,怡然自乐。陶渊明创造了一个令我们非常向往的世外桃源。虽然不能生活在那个美好的世界,但是我想每个人心中都有自己的桃花源吧。
