Reed Flowers: Reed grasses are tall, perennial aquatic or wetland grasses of the Poaceae family. In literature, reeds are called "jianjia"—floating, drifting with the wind yet rooted in the earth. The roots symbolize deep affection.Is this not the very essence of longing?
As the Book of Songs declares: "The reeds are green and lush, the white dew turns to frost. The one I long for dwells by the water's edge..." The flower language of reed blossoms: resilience, pride, and love tinged with self-doubt!
Winter fades in the reed marshes, weary and cloaked in sunset hues, I return home.
