The sea water spinach rope keeps stretching, crawling along the sand, the leaves stay green, the purple heart flowers keep blooming for life. Silently, enduring with wind and sun, even storms and rain, with the salty taste of the sea, sea water morning glory remains silent and spreads. The time of the four seasons is still passing, the sea water spinach is still seasonally alive, and then blooms with a joyful purple color swaying in the direction of the sea breeze. Just like the waves outside forever still come to the shore, the sea spinach will forever shine with its own beauty between the sand, waves and immense wind of heaven and earth… The sea in this season, the sandy shore has countless rows of sea spinach interwoven, covering the long, gentle sandy beaches. Every year, when the southerly winds after spring pour into the sandy sea, the sea water lily flowers have begun to bloom. In the flowering season, it seems that all the sandy slopes are gentle like a carpet of purple flowers swaying before the sea breeze. Each purple heart flower interspersed in the heart-shaped green leaves is a witness to the folk tale “The love story of the sea water flower”, the love and romance passed down from the past and still mentioned today in the memories of many generations of residents. coastal people… Thus, sea water spinach has pinkish-purple flowers, trumpet-shaped flowers similar to morning glory flowers, but larger.

The green leaves are round and round, spreading a dark green full of life, from the “mother” ropes grow “children” and then crawl along each smooth sand. By the early summer sun in May, the sun was burning but still stretching the branches, the leaves were still green and the flowers were purple in the sun so that the sea spinach season covered the beach. Water morning glory flowers follow the natural course of the earth and sky, clinging to the sand and clinging to the sea, then giving the earth and sky a strong vitality. Although each flower is fragile, gentle and loving. And the sea water spinach is always faithful to always grow towards the sea… In the sunny and windy days of summer, I often go to the beach early in the morning. From the waves gently lapping the shore, the east side was a pink color signaling a very sunny day. The sea water spinach leaves in the morning dew prepare to welcome the morning sun, the flower buds seem to gradually open. In this peace of the sea, I suddenly think of the days when storms and rains raged in the sea. But, in the many wounds of the sea space, in silently enduring, the sea spinach roots still cling to the sandy soil, trying to overcome and stretch themselves to each other. In order not to perish, start the rebirth from the roots of the sea water spinach, gradually sprouting a small string… Just like that, over the course of the day and month, the sea water spinach ran for a long time, then bloomed again, spreading the pristine purple color, spreading to the rhythm of the waves, full of magic… And, day by day, in the midst of the vast ocean, every wave comes to the shore, and also throws white foam to sing a strong and courageous song. Each patch of water spinach is still quietly blooming, shimmering on the sandy slopes. From the sparkling morning sun on the sea water, each ray of sunlight shining on the cover of the sea urchin begins a new day, the sea water morning glory is drawing endless purple lines running in the distance for a pristine picture. . At noon, when the sun shines, the morning glory flowers are still bright and bright to welcome the sun, until the sunset is still the immense purple color of a passing day. The life of sea water lily flowers, intertwined in the wind and sunshine life, in the true salty taste of the immense sea, still carelessly accepts the harsh hardships, but is still purple as a thank you to heaven and earth for longevity. a flower… I still remember the verse: “There is a wild flower at the end of the sky / Day after day waiting for the wave at sea…”.

The girl has turned her old place into a beautiful little house in the “forest” of colorful flowers. Phuong said: “At the age of 23, I failed in everything, including love. People say that they fail to go home. When we are under pressure from work and life, we all want to go home or run far away from the city to find our own silence, and I did that. Phuong’s small house was designed by his own hands to design and renovate in the “forest” of flowers and plants. “My house is in the suburbs so there is a vacant land.

Because, when I make things more beautiful by myself, I feel happier than tired, ”said the girl. Where to find peace for the soul Daffodils bloom white in the morning mist in the early morning. Phuong said that from the day she returned to her hometown, immersed in the plants, she felt love for life, love nature and cherished life more than ever. Now, Phuong can settle herself in order to find peace. She forgot the hustle and bustle in the city to watch the dawn, enjoy the flowers, and reflect on the sunset in the afternoon. Phuong said, she loves to watch the sunset because it is the softest light and color of a long day. In Phuong’s garden, there are also fruit trees that are bearing fruit. Everywhere in the garden makes the viewer feel at peace. Phuong himself supported wood and closed a small corner at home so that he could sit and watch the sunset at the end of the afternoon.

Phuong often comes to sit by the fireplace watching the rain, listen to the radio, read books and make delicious food for her mother.
