Luojia whispers her autumn spell
But
Specks of pink and white creep up the branches.
In the autumn breeze that belongs to spring
One will confuse maturity with rebirth.
Once again the blossoms receive their audiences.
Rambling around Luojia Mountain
Sweet autumn sweat.
You murmur at the sultry air these days
For it dampens your spirit.
Take a deep breath, look up to the sky
Unexpectedly come across
Clusters of her softly blooming cherry blossoms.
You may take her petals to your heart
To console your battered, anxious soul.
Outside the teaching buildings
Meet the hustle and bustle of the crowds
The romantics all at once
stop what they are doing and
Lift their phones to welcome her back.
Now, everyone is recording
The same instant
And the same petal.
Though she isn't as sparkling as in spring
Though it is just a brief glimpse
Though autumn isn't part of her world
Her branches still turn twinkly,
Just to bring you a surprise.
She just stands distantly with a calm grace
Not glaring but exquisite.
Her scent is not thick but eternal.
In a subtle way
She goes deeply into our minds.
She hides in a deep yellowish green
So you stand against the setting sun
And pierce the gloom to chase her.
The swelter in November is pacified by her tenderness
So is your heart.
It is her, the cherry blossom that belongs to every WHUer
Who sets her whole heart on you
During her instant blooming.
She lies on the branches gracefully
whispering her autumn spell
