The Trees Outside My Window
佚名/Anonymous
透過我房間的窗子，可以看到一株高大的芙蓉樹。它在春日的薄霧中若隱若現，紅花點點，甚是迷人。它總能給我靈感，使我文思泉湧。我逐漸把它當成了最好的朋友。
然而，一天早晨，當我把窗子打開時，吃驚地發現前夜的那場風雨竟將芙蓉樹吹打得落紅滿地。霎時，那種“花開終有落”的悲涼之感襲上心頭，我不禁喟歎：人生之旅，總會有各種牽絆，曲折的經曆總會伴隨著我們。我曾多次承受與摯友離別的傷感，這隨風而逝的花朵不正是脆弱生命的真實寫照嗎？
那天的感觸隨著時間的流逝在我的記憶中逐漸被淡忘。一天，我從鄉下回到家中，覺得室內的空氣令人窒息，便隨手將窗子打開。眼前的景象頓時讓我驚呆了。一棵李子樹滿樹都開了火紅的花朵，在落日餘暉的映照下顯得格外漂亮。這驚奇的發現讓我興奮不已。當初我為落紅的芙蓉樹悲傷時，卻沒想到那淒涼景象背後，竟會萌生出如此頑強的生命。
當最後一片枯萎的芙蓉花瓣飄落時，人們不再對它讚美欣賞。直到李子樹成長起來，那火紅的花兒向人們昭示著生命的更迭與繁衍。不能否認，生命原本就是一場得失共存的交響樂。
我站在窗前，不禁思緒萬千。我意識到，生命中沒什麽恒久不變的風景，隻要你的心永遠朝著太陽，那麽每一個清晨都會向你展現一番美景，等待你去欣賞——這個世界總會帶給你新的希望。
From the window of my room， I could see a tall cotton-rose hibiscus. In spring， when green foliage was half hidden by mist， the tree looked very enchanting dotted with red blossom.This inspiring neighbor of mine often set my mind working.I gradually regarded it as my best friend.
Nevertheless， when I opened the window one morning， to my amazement， the tree was almost bare beyond recognition as a result of the storm ravages the night before. Struck by the plight， I was seized with a sudden saddens at the thought "all the blossom is doomed to fall".I could not help sighing with emotion：the course of life never runs smooth， for there are so many ups and downs， twists and turns.The vicissitudes of my life saw my beloved friends parting one after another.Is n't it similar to the tree shedding its flowers in the wind？
