"Spirituality begets feeling, and feeling begets weeping." We cry because we perceive everything so truly. You will be surprised to see that in the hearts of those mountain children, the season of mountain flowers and wild flowers also hides many waves. Today, let's linger for a while in these children's poems, share the common spirituality, and use this poetic connection to spend spring together."
PatientChaoXiang Zhang, 12 years oldYou know what?Being a patientUsed up all my pain"Those who are experiencing and have experienced illness will surely feel the strong emotional energy in this little poem. The feeling is so real and at the same time so difficult to articulate, spitting out a sense of loneliness - we are all left to face those deepest aches and pains of life alone. But when the expression is heard, we can add a connection." Written by Yihan.
Warm cabinsHe Lei,11 years old On the beautiful sea shoreThere's a happy cottageInside it was beautifulThere's a man and two dogs.Whenever I was sickThe two dogs cared for meBut there's no medicine in there.We're going to be wandering on this endless sea forever.The little poet describes for us in simple language the beautiful beach, the "wandering" life of man and dog. When you are sick, there is no medicine, but there is care from the dog, and this emotional healing is the prescription given by the little poet. We don't need too many things, we have a partner who really cares about us, and we have a hut of our own, which is also the place where our hearts are at ease. Written by Yihan.
Emotions Jinhe Guo, 15 years old My emotionsLike the leaves of a tree that change from season to season.In spring, when everything is revitalized and new leaves grow from the bare trunks of trees, why not think of our emotions as a tree that changes seasons? It has its flourishing leaves, and its sluggish fluttering, in keeping with the laws of life. For a tree, every state of leaves is natural, so for a person, all emotions are natural. Written by Yihan.
My HappinessYinhai Wei, 9 years oldWhen my mom and dad came backMy happiness comes back tooWhen my family leavesMy happiness also leavesWhen my family gets sickMy happiness gets sick tooWhen there's no news of a loved one working abroadMy happiness is also dying with themWhen family members beat me and scold meMy happiness becomes wet with tearsWhen happiness disappearsI was trapped in the darknessIt turns out that happiness can be "sick" too. For the young poet, the state of happiness is closely related to her family, her emotions, her breath and her light. And for this changing happiness, the nine-year-old says, "Although my happiness is a bit incomplete, I will cherish my happiness." Written by Yihan.

When "memories, illnesses, and partings" come, we want to use these little poems, these little hearts' perception of the world, to tell you that you are not alone. Please don't give up hope in the spring, please wait a little longer, the bright view will come eventually.Let's spend the spring together in children's poems.Check more in https://www.yannsalt.com/ Writer YihanIllustrator Yanjun ChenEdited by Xiao He Proofread by Xiao Yang "Light"
