青苔又死去
[qīng tái yòu sĭ qù]
'青苔又死去' means 'moss dies again'. This gives a sense of cyclical decay or the ephemeral nature of life. In China, moss signifies resilience and quiet perseverance as it tends to grow slowly but steadily in hidden spots; saying it dies may convey feeling powerless against larger forces or a sad recognition that even what seems eternal comes to an end.
