A unique color

There are all kinds of flowers in the world.

I have seen the graceful peony, seen the graceful daffodils, seen out of the sludge and not dyed lotus, but also seen the simple wheat flowers, sorghum flowers ......

However, in the depths of my memory, so I can not forget this flower, it is not open in March but in the autumn high time, it is not open in the warm room, but in the autumn wind whistling in the rage. It is not in the warm room but the autumn wind. The cold autumn breeze, not the warm spring breeze, greets its birth, and the autumn dew, not the expensive spring rain, nourishes its growth.

It is the city flower of our Kaifeng ----- Chrysanthemum.

Chrysanthemum is the soul of Kaifeng. Kaifeng has the reputation of a city stacked on top of a city. Some people may ask why the ancestors of Kaifeng did not rebuild in a different place but built on the old city. That is because of Kaifeng's persistence. We Kaifeng people have a kind of temperament, that is, people are determined to win, and this is not the same as the chrysanthemum. Who said that autumn can not bloom, I prefer to fight with the cold wind. According to legend, a long time ago, flowers were open in all seasons, but one day, the weather changed dramatically, and the cold wind howled, killing all the flowers, year after year, the flowers thought, why not we do not open at that time, only the chrysanthemum persevered, year after year, the struggle with the cold wind, and finally overcome the frost, in the autumn alone. Isn't this persistent spirit of chrysanthemum embodied in Kaifeng people?

Chrysanthemum is the god of Kaifeng. When God created the flowers, he gave each flower a unique color, but forgot about the chrysanthemum and gave it only the most common yellow color. After many years, the daring spirit of the chrysanthemum made God regret it and brought the colorful colors to the chrysanthemum garden. The king of chrysanthemums said that that most common color back then finally became colorful with our efforts for millions of years. This spirit of self-improvement is reflected in the Kaifeng people, who are always moving forward with their dissatisfaction.

Chrysanthemum is the root of Kaifeng. Some people say that the competitiveness of a city lies in whether the city has a united heart. I think that chrysanthemum is the root of Kaifeng and chrysanthemum is the essence of Kaifeng. The bones of the Kaifeng people are the feet of the chrysanthemum. If you ask what flower has the biggest root? It is undoubtedly the chrysanthemum. Because it has to compete with the cold wind, to make the cold wind yield, without a strong root as support is not possible. The rise of Kaifeng is precisely such a down-to-earth approach, from creating a provincial cultural city to a national calligraphy city, one step at a time. From improving the quality of all the people to cultural construction, Kaifeng people have created one cultural miracle in the world after another, what is this, this is what we have done on the ground.

Chrysanthemum is the home in Kaifeng people's hearts. We, Chinese people, have a home sentiment in our hearts. It is more obvious in Kaifeng people. When Kaifeng people are in tears, the spirit of the Kaifeng chrysanthemum gives them a home to rely on. When Kaifeng people are hurt, it is the spirit of the Kaifeng chrysanthemum that gives Kaifeng people a home to rest in.

Kaifeng chrysanthemum leads us to fly over a bumpy road and cross over a difficulty again and again. Leap over one crisis after another. Kaifeng ---- you are the most beautiful city in my heart, chrysanthemum, you are the most beautiful flower in my heart.
