Hello everyone, words have always been the best witness to history. Today a bunch of green grass brings you a 700-word essay on life in the cracks in the wall. You are welcome to come and learn from it.
A small sapling.
A small sapling bursting out of the wall.
There are too many weeds in the yard, but every time I pull the weeds, I always leave the small sapling in the corner. It’s not that I can’t pull it out, but I can’t bear to watch this stubborn little life be destroyed.
I don’t know if the wind caused it to float here, or if a bird accidentally dropped it on the unfinished dirt. I don’t know when it was sealed, but now it broke out of the ground out of stubbornness. I was shocked by the power of plants.
It is not like a flower in a greenhouse that cannot withstand wind and rain. On the contrary, if it is transplanted into a flowerpot, it will slowly droop and its leaves will gradually wither and turn yellow, like an old man who is nearly seventy years old. It will not be long before he slowly dies.
The presence of it in the cracks in the wall creates its unique strong character and appearance. The pampered flowers in the greenhouse show their beauty to the world, and this small sapling is not limited to "good-looking". Its long roots are tightly attached to the rocks, twisting and turning. It is hard to believe that these long roots that look earthy can break through pieces of hard gravel. The "trunk" as thick as the little finger gradually changes from light brown to light green or dark green. Its leaves are not as plump as honeysuckle leaves, nor as fresh as jujube leaves, nor as plump as succulent leaves. It doesn't care about appearance. Although it only has half-curled dark green leaves, it is a unique beauty. It is not afraid of wind and rain, and the leaves are bitten by the heavy rain, but it still faces the sun, letting a drop of crystal water roll on the dark green leaves, glowing with vitality.
Where does it draw its nutrients? How to grow? It is on a high wall without any attachments. How can it persist on growing on a cliff?
I didn’t get the answer, but too much nutrients will make it wither faster; a comfortable environment will make it shrink and languid; having no attachments will make it develop a "steel bone". It is not ostentatious, but it is indeed a wonderful life and a strange life.
From sprouting to growing dark green leaves, who knows how many windy and rainy nights it has gone through? How many times have you been exposed to the harsh sunshine?
Small sapling, you are persevering; you are tenacious and work hard, and you have a bright future.
Small sapling, I’m waiting for you to have green leaves blooming; I’m waiting for you to relax your curls and be clear; I’m waiting for you to be full of fragrant trees!
