Prose Poetry for Junior High School:Dragon Boat Festival in My Hometown

After the plums are ripe, the Dragon Boat Festival's footsteps come in style. "She came from the Jiangnan where the flowers are bright and the willows are dark and the rain is like silk, from the dream where the green shade is like a cover and the willow trees are smoky, and she came from my deep gaze." This is the contemporary lyricist Feng Hua's praise of the Dragon Boat Festival.

My hometown is in the mountainous region of the northeast. The village is surrounded by rolling hills, and the mountains are "full of beautiful trees and shade". A clear stream overflowing in the lofty mountain stream, flowing through the village of smoke, chickens and dogs barking. For thousands of years, the simple and peaceful village just so quietly lying in the embrace of the mountains, absorbing the earth's aura, bathing in the light of the sun.

Not long after the azalea bloomed, it was the Dragon Boat Festival. So, I was in a foreign country and recalled the Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown to the Dragon Boat Festival, many customs with the same outside of the Department of the Hundred Suozi, Dragon Boat Festival, the night before the morning of 3:00 am, 4:00 am, the mother got up, the pre-prepared five-color rope tied to the child's hands on the neck. The small rope is off color, dipped in water, the wrist dyed red a color, green a color, fun.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, wait until the first rain, the child fell asleep after the mother quietly unraveled the small voice, thrown in the water to let the rain wash it away.

With colorful paper stacked with a chain of small treasure lamps hanging on the lintel, symbolizing a year of grain abundance, food and clothing.

What I remember most is the Dragon Boat Festival when I was 8 years old. That year, somehow, I had a big and purple, swollen pus pustules, pain, I can not rest, then eight a father-in-law said, "Mao Mao, you wait, I go get some champagne to." He didn't come back until the afternoon. I heard people say that this stuff in the water after boiling, water bath, can cure all diseases. I really didn't have any pain after the bath. On the third day, it was fine.

Afterwards, I asked Mr. Augustine the reason. He said, "You're lucky this child, on the Dragon Boat Festival, otherwise, it can be enough for you to suffer!" I still don't understand what he meant. Probably because it coincided with this festival full of magical colors!

Hometown is also to make the Dragon Boat Festival wine. After the first rains of spring, every family has already put the Dragon Boat Festival wine into the ground deep fermentation. Inside, they put six things: jujube, lychee, wolfberry, olive, cinnamon and almonds. Dragon Boat Festival Wine is so fragrant in the mouth that it can be called "spring fragrance and wine cleansing." Dragon Boat Festival Wine can also make people live forever! Now, my mom is making it the same way, with the same ingredients but a different taste in the mouth. I reminded my mom, "You're using the wine from here, not the wine you brewed yourself back home!"

I have been away from home for many years with my mom, but the mountains and waters of my hometown, the people and customs in my heart screen can never be erased. This year's Dragon Boat Festival has been over, I would like to ask: dear folks, you and brew Dragon Boat Festival wine?
