Why decorate the Lantern Festival?

Lantern Festival is a long-awaited festival, because I can eat Yuanxiao, set off firecrackers and watch fireworks on this day. "Eat Yuanxiao!" My mother is holding steaming Yuanxiao in her hand and crying happily. Yuanxiao symbolizes family reunion, and life is as sweet as Yuanxiao. I am chewing the rustling black sesame Yuanxiao, which is really beautiful in the bowl and sweet in my heart.

After the Lantern Festival, my family came to the street to watch the fireworks. There are many people in the street, coming from all directions like the tide. Everyone's face is filled with festive joy. We followed the crowd to the Cultural Square, which is a good place to watch fireworks. We only heard a whoosh. A big chrysanthemum suddenly opened in the air, and countless colorful petals bloomed from the flower heart, which immediately decorated the beautiful night sky more colorful. People don't. Then pear blossoms of different colors compete to open in the air and compete for beauty; I heard a bang, a dot exploded, bursting out countless dots, and then countless dots turned into countless small mushrooms, which fell from the air like small paratroopers and disappeared into the deep night sky for a while. People were intoxicated in this colorful world.

After watching the fireworks, we began to watch the lanterns with the crowd. There are so many lights in the street that I can't see everything clearly. There are twelve palace lanterns, Tathagata Palace lanterns, Guanyin Palace lanterns, Pig Eight Rings Palace lanterns, Mickey Mouse Palace lanterns, Facebook Palace lanterns, Shenzhou Six Flying Palace lanterns, Olympic Fuwa Palace lanterns ... and neon lights, which make the whole city of Linze more beautiful. 2009 is the Year of the Ox and the 60th anniversary of the National Day. The main characters of lanterns are Fuwa and the cows in the zodiac. Bulls look radiant, and their energy is really funny. They seem to say: my old cow should be proud today! Colorful lights are blooming with gorgeous colors, as if cheering for the National Day. The most striking thing is the two dragon lanterns in front of the county government, which are so magnificent and attract countless photographers.

At this time, my father asked me to set off firecrackers, light firecrackers, and swish out "meteors" from the bamboo tube, like a goddess scattering flowers, like red trees and silver flowers, like meteors flying away. My dream also wants to fly to the blue sky with the "meteor". I must study hard and master a lot of knowledge to realize my dream of flying in the sky!
