小园

  我家的东边有一块长方形的小园,园里种着各种蔬菜、花草和树木。这里一年四季都是美丽的。

  春天到了,大地像铺了一条绿毯,园里一片绿油油的。一群小鸟在树枝上唧唧喳喳地叫个不停,静静的小园热闹起来了。

  夏天,向日葵长得很茁壮,迎着朝霞绽开着一朵朵金黄色的花。火红的石榴花开得十分茂盛,散发着阵阵芳香,引来一群群蝴蝶和蜜蜂,它们翩翩起舞,纵情欢唱。地里茄子紫了,西红柿红了,顶花带刺的黄瓜挂满了架,望着这丰收的果实,我感到了小园的可爱。

  秋天牵牛花开了,在绿叶丛中伸出一枝枝粉色的小喇叭,正在为小蜜蜂吹奏着动听的歌。石榴熟了,红色的果皮裂开了,露出珍珠般的颗粒,好像冲着我们咧嘴傻笑。这一切怎不惹人喜爱?

  冬天,一场大雪之后,园里石榴树披上了白雪。地上也盖了厚厚的白雪,整个小园成了银装素裹的白色世界。我情不自禁地赞叹道:“好美呀,小园!”

  小园如此娇美,真是一幅诱人的四季画。
