Its petals, like a whispered vow, Unfold in velvet silence deep- The wind, that paused to watch it now, Steals half its fragrance as it sleeps. 《牡丹的私语》 一株牡丹在隐秘的空气中抽芽— 它的色彩羞于直面阳光— 但当光线解开它的发绺— 花园便一瓣接一瓣地战栗。 它的花瓣，如一句低语的誓言， 在天鹅绒般的寂静中舒展— 风、曾驻足凝望此刻的它， 却在它沉睡时，偷走了半缕芬芳。 The most beautiful flower-Peonies Do you know peonies? They have big, round flowers. They come in pink, red, white... even yellow! Their petals are soft like silk. In China, we call them the “Queen of Flowers”. And they are called “National Flower”.
