Love story

Love story
TA had just sprouted, got out of the ground, saw that stone tablet.
The tablet sets up newly. Up right and foursquare, the raised angle is very clearly demarcated. The word carved above is clear and beautiful too. But TA does not know these words - -Certainly TA does not know, TA is just a seed sprouting newly. If TA will not die at once, will have an opportunity to grow into ShuMiao, even big tree later. But TA is only a tree bud now. Though does not know the word (TA does not even know this is the tombstone) on the tombstone ,But TA likes these words. TA looks at their neat stroke, feels very happy.
Behind the tablet is a small grave mound. Bank up new soil with earth, come loose, appear first mud behind the rain fragrant spring. The grass wrapped up in, entered still soil, emerge a bit and come green. Perhaps there are tree seeds - -If in that way, have one more of rain, TA will send out buds like TA too, will grow into Shu - -TA thinks: Certain.
But does not have. After raining, only some longer weeds will come on the grave mound, and the person coming to visit a grave soon has pulled out. These people begin that burst to often come, stand for a moment, touch the tombstone, bank up with earth and earth up, neither speak, nor shed tears. Sometimes squat, look at the word on the tablet quietly, when the cold wind blows at dusk, stand up and go. Here field, one bleak and desolate all around, night wind behind the setting sun can blow people shivers.
After the grass in the grave mound is pulled out, will stand up long in a few days. Then is pulled out, also grow Until the fact that people have gradually gradually, weeds climb full whole grave mound unprincipled right away, more luxuriant than other places, yellow in half a young half a year, attract many insects, birds, the chirp is noisy around the tombstone. The grave mound more and more the shorter and smaller seems, have disappeared unexpectedly.
TA has already grown into a tree at this moment. Because around have other one tree,seem the tall and big. TA does not like weeds, insect, noise of birds very much, only like watching that tablet silently. Reading the word above, every stroke is appreciated, then guess the tomb middleman's name, imagine he or her feature, age, life experience, experience TA illiterate, guess it is more relaxed instead like this, follows one's bent. Can unite into a plaintive story each time, move oneself.
It is always windy, it is rainy, there is sunshine, blew, was drenched with rain, was shining. TA does not care, the diligent tall and straight body of every day. Look at the stone tablet, but has ground off the raised angle gradually, come off storey by storey, the writing is getting fuzzy slowly, show the simple and unsophisticated, deep look, still stand erect. TA thinks: Yes, like a strong soldier. TA shows admiration, likes, loves secretly, it seems that the stone tablet is living. TA is willing too the weeds, insect, birds all know, but TA is unwilling to tell them by oneself. They do not seem interested either, the weeds are annual in one year, die in one year and one year, getting long to may not be certain what change does it have, insect and bird move half a season, come in half a season too, busy, make a racket, mine under TA foot by all means, put up the nest among TA one. TA does not go to look out for them, they pay no attention to TA. Sometimes the hare or other animals come, TA will be observed carefully, see they will notice that tombstone. Know once in a while. But mostly the time, it is stopped, recognize the word on the tablet that it is all rare for this group of fellows in a hurry to depart. TA thinks: Certainly, those words can not be seen clearly for a long time. Everyone can not recognize, and except TA, everyone has forgotten it.
Yes, a lot of years. TA thinks, draw in the annual ring together again, expresses oneself - -With this tablet - -Age.
At first, TA still thinks this stone tablet is analogous to tallly and bigly and grandly, but slowly, TA own stature line with, go out of tablet that short and small, even a lot of weeds seem a little higher too already. TA knows that respects this tablet very much by oneself, ones that think the other side silly and silly too are lovely sometimes, will also feel pitiful once in a while, because years and trials and hardship have already rubed the stone outmoded, and tattered. TA think of, have oneself branch and leaf stretch, pass by, shelter from rainwater and sunshine, think, appear so very much funny again at once ever: Who could like like this? Then TA pretend careless appearance, to spread body on four sides, naturally, have a part to be long to reach there. Later when rain, TA pay attention to the rain drops that leaf dropped especially. Whether imagining whether the other side will know Sure not. The rain drops have no life, there is not a life in the stone tablet. Think TA smile, tremble, fall rainwater against the wind stealthily so. Listening to the raindrop sound of the ticktack, pleased in the heart
Arrive late autumn, TA begin one of all in that place fall, it loses to be already withered and yellow leaf, some fall into grass, birds that some followed the south with the north wind fly very far. The wind has stopped, will have a block of fallen leaves missing on the stone tablet too, shake from side to side, like a tottering hand, stroke on the tablet gently. Hands are bony and withered and yellow, swept away by the wind soon. Stone tablet stand in bright but in the warm sunshine, until yellow leaf drop on one's own bare hair very quiet, blown without a trace by the cold wind from yellow leaf.
TA is sour in the heart, found oneself already old and feeble suddenly. TA likes recalling the past event more and more. TA remembers those thing of that year while always counting the annual ring. Counting, a little irritatedly tired. The annual ring have even TA more uncountably.
Well. One breath that TA has sighed in the cold wind. TA knows oneself is living, the life will all die. Everything will not change, except oneself is out. TA does not fear the death, just has a kind of empty feeling that falls. Well, (the one breath that TA has sighed again) Everything will not change, will not change. TA can't help bowing and seeing the stone tablet by the body, the tablet body has already lost a lot of layers, ashenner and shorter and smaller. But that just seems old, there is not a life in the stone tablet, so will not die either. Some of TA envy, but begin to worry again at once: After dying by oneself, also who pays attention to this stone tablet, yes, love? Who can still remember the word on that? How clear, so beautiful originally they are! Now, will disappear forever with the dying of TA too. TA is reticent, a little sentimental. Even TA, does not know the meaning of those words either.
What a pity, TA sighs once thinking of here, how beautiful originally those words are.
But before long, TA no longer sigh, not with chattering by oneself again. TA has no strength. TA finished drawing the last annual ring strenuously, died silently.
Insect and birds have not found TA has died, until spring of second year, they see TA leaf not any more longer and green come. They are not very sad. The insect still mines under TA, but the bird has abandoned the original nest, moves the place to go far away.
That stone tablet Oh yes, that is just a stone tablet.
