117, the story of lotus

there is a story passed down from antiquity to now:
God sent the sun to manage the flowers on the earth
ordered them to open on days
sleep in the moonlight at nights
every flower bloomed its smile
when lotus gently unfolded her petals
her beauty and fragrance gave out
all flowers were ashamed and lowered their faces
left lotus lonely open in the world
the sun had to order:
lotus open only at night.
this story made my heart unpeaceful
lotus is lonely because of her beauty
this story has been passed down for thousands of years
the reality has nothing changed until today.
