Leisurely people dont like summer, for it is a melody of tension, hurry and enthusiasm like a pot of water on a stove bubbling gradually and boiling finally. Although cicadas annoying people replaces butterflies flying everywhere, there still exist some other melodies that charm peoples ears in this golden season.
MAY-a moonlight sonata
The wind still remembers the fragrance of cherry blossom, the moment May comes here in expectation. Fireflies twinkle lightly in the moonlight just like scattered musical notes dancing in the air. The moonlight sonata comes to light from the sky.
Grannys fan beats gracefully in the wind. A swarm of winged insects are humming around a light, sometimes strong and sometimes weak. Their vigor puts the sonata into higher spirits. The moonlight binding up the stars songs throws itself on the ground. Having heard the voice, nightingales are too ready to join the sonata and perform admirably. Children count the stars in the breeze, “one, two, three...”, giving the sonata an innocent lyric as a present. At the moment, the sonata strikes a chord with all the musicians, the ground playing a conductor who sways the baton passionately.
Night melts in the moonlight sonata as a chocolate does. They announce: “Summer is coming!”
JUNE-a hot wave rondo.
Summer is in possession of hot waves. It is high time that people should sweat; thereupon the sound of sweating comes in all directions. The summer rondo wells up from a distance.
The workers shirts are dipped in their sweat. The sound of dripping sweat seems to be the notes jumping in a stave. The sound of tearing off ice-cream packing bags is bubbling and bursting in the doorways of shops. Kids are at a loss what to do when the colorful ice-cream is melting on their hands. Sports fans are hitting the water in the swimming pool. Peasants suffer long hours in the rude sunshine, but they work hard as they sing loudly together. The wind goes through wheat waves and delays the harvest delight. The endless melody echoes in the hot wave.
Hot as the weather is, nature never fails to perform the hot wave rondo. The sun determines to go home eventually to do the dry earth a favor.
JULY-a brilliant waltz
Only July is brilliant. Cries of sellers in the alley wake people up and start the music journey. The sun just rises and shines the path. People jump into a gentle waltz round the park.
The park is divided into many parts by different kinds of music while people enjoy themselves in these mini worlds. Tapes voice is in a clear, sharp tone. A group of fashionable youth finds fulfillment in their dance steps. An old man sings confidently on the lake shore, his voice leading the ripple to the center. Several young musicians play the sax on the bridge. Their flexible fingers make the morning animated. Red garments and the shouting of slogans are the symbol of kung fu. They draw peoples attention by traditional culture. Of course, the most significant part of the waltz is ballroom dancing. Its unique beats let people pleased and also bring the cool to them…
