That is a ginkgo tree, which grows in our yard.
A few days after I left home, I went back to the yard, and immediately, a shiny color attracted me strongly. That's the leaf of ginkgo tree, it's the golden leaf of ginkgo tree.
Before I left home, I clearly remembered that ginkgo tree was a green tree, just like the color of any green plant in the world, overflowing and mediocre. After a few days, I didn't expect it to change its makeup, just like the model on the catwalk suddenly changed her style. This is probably the result of frequent autumn winds these days.
This tree is not so tall and big, its trunk is stout, it is six or seven meters high, and its shape is like Tasong, but it is not as thick and heavy as Tasong. Instead, it looks a little delicate and clever. If it weren't for such a thoroughly remoulded appearance, I really didn't pay much attention to it at ordinary times. This time, I was really conquered.
I used to read Du Mu's "Mountain Walk" and felt that "stopping in the maple grove late, the frost leaves are redder than February" seemed a bit melodramatic. Now, I suddenly realized the excitement and obsession of Du Mu at that time.
Ginkgo biloba leaves are fan-shaped, petite and exquisite, and the long petiole makes it look enchanting and feminine. Just looking at a leaf seems to have a lot of tender feelings, but when the leaves of the whole tree are put together, it gives people a vigorous and grand gas field, just like a martial arts master who looks thin but has muscles all over his body, showing a kind of rigidity and toughness in his bones, a kind of fearless domineering.
Although some leaves are still a little green, the leaves of the whole tree have formed a full and dazzling golden yellow. Gold is not the crazy and warm yellow in Van Gogh's Sunflowers, nor the materialized yellow of ripe fruits in the harvest season, nor the cold yellow in Huang Chao's Flowers in the City. It is a quiet, quiet and lively yellow, with rich texture, fullness and massiness. It is golden and shiny, yellow but not withered, old but not stiff, condensed but not cold. The golden crown of the tree is like a hill, with a large area of yellow, which has a three-dimensional effect. Looking around, there seems to be a yellow halo around the crown, and the whole tree is as bright, holy and solemn as a Christmas tree. The breeze blew, and the leaves danced like a group of Jiangnan women dressed in yellow. They were beautiful, charming, lively and restrained, smooth and not noisy.
Standing in front of the tree, I looked up at the golden color of the tree like a pilgrimage, and my ears seemed to echo with the metallic clank of ginkgo leaves. The golden sound is dreamlike and fascinating.
I have seen the mature and quiet life sublimate step by step from this golden color, and I have seen the vitality of passion condense into a kind of self-restraint and tolerance. After experiencing wind and rain, lightning in Lei Zhen, sun exposure and frost exposure, the light green ginkgo leaves shook off all the floating dust, drained the illusory water, and stayed away from the noisy luxury, showing generosity, kindness and simplicity. Living here is as strong, mellow and romantic as old wine. In this chilly autumn wind, we feel the warmth and the life breath full of masculine beauty. My heart is no longer dull and gloomy, and the world is no longer cold.
I have wandered around this tree again and again, lingering in the shocking golden yellow; It has also been shot again and again to freeze the shortness of the air at this time; But I feel more deeply that the dazzling color has melted into my heart.
