Love in terms of botany.


Love in terms of botany
Place: Herbaria of Royal botanical garden
Date : spring wood/autumn wood/annual ring
Dear cypsela;
                        Hi! Yours lablab is writing this letter to you at the midnight when all the scotoactive CAM plants are busy in photosynthesizing their food.
Love is puzzle and you are my first love. Being in love these days, I am puzzling like a monkey that swings up and down in the tree of Araucaria imbricata. Darn, when I first saw you, your immense beauty had numbed me. But the moment I tried to talk to you, I became far more fragile than Mimosa pudica and got collapsed simply seeing you, not even being touched.
Being in love is sweeter than the fructose in sugarcane but to me you are as sweet as sachharin. Honey! You are the secondary xylem remaining in the core of my heart, do believe me, I won’t be leaving you like the water droplets that ooze out from the hydathodes during the guttation but i’ll be with you forever like the prop roots beholding the banyan tree for ages. Comparable to Romeo and Juliates’ love our story will blossom like jasmine and expand like Cynodon doctylon.
Pious as ocimum and devoted as Rhizobium my love towards you won’t be drying like a plant perplexed with chlorosis but rather become evergreen as a tree grown in the tropical rain forest. Dear when you are not near me, your absence makes me empty and hollow like the internode of Bambusa. Even in the adversities like that of Atacama desert where there is no rainfall record for 400 years, for your well being, I will be the phylloclade of opuntia that thrives the xeric condition with unlimited growth.
No exotic component can separate us from our togetherness. At this verge of our life symbiosis between both of us is utmost for strengthening the bond of our relationship. If we be together, we shall be fragrancing  the world all day and night with our love unlike Cestrum noctornum that does only during the night time and our love will go as high as Eucalyptus tree and deep as the root tip of Shorea  robusta.
I won’t be caring of the world or of the critic society that speaks of our love as a contradictory one. Contradictions never make a rule. Cypsella! Though we follow a different hierarchy, we follow a great similarity that we are of the same kingdom, a kingdom that overrules the animalia – the plantae. So dear honey I will love you till the eternity as long as the plants photosynthesize or as long as they generate ATP, via respiration.
With love
Dolichos lablab

A memory

Dedicated to my deceased brother………. If life goes on as we think, it’s not life. I have made changes in perspective of life’s values and norms. It is said life is beautiful. But it may turn nasty in various ways and shows its monster form unknowingly. So we learn by living our life, whatever comes on its way. We have no choices left than to surrender ourselves to that situation. A devastating and out of the blue incident occurred in our family life. It was an usual day, usual time but the circumstances had been changed. A time with its disastrous form revealed us the unexpected event. Sensational, Heart breaking, Unbelievable it was. These are the mere words and words count no worth compared to feelings. Words are just the structured form seen through our naked eyes which lack their real identity and hidden truth. It was a usual day with unusual circumstances. April 15, Sunday. Early in the morning I woke up and was just sitting by the bed pondering the day’s plans. I was calm, co...

Life is full of uncertainties. We cannot predict, what happens next moment. Who had thought that the pandemic Covid-19 would affect the people worldwide? This dangerous contagious disease has paralyzed the lives of people. The world is going through this tough time like never before. The microscopic virus has threatened the existence of human beings. We cannot see through our naked eyes, but it is prevalent everywhere.  This pandemic not only takes it’s toll, but also heralds a great message for the generations to come. Since there is no medication for the virus, the infected person battles against it through their own immunity. So, the sustainable solution to fight against these virus is to enhance your innate immunity. The development of vaccines is very arduous and it should go through various trial phases before it is applied in the larger society.  As far, observing the transmigration of this virus, it is more rapidly spreading in the developed region like Europe an...
