Thursday, March 26, 2009/ 5:01 PM a report, a sad report. this is an incident, something sad and has pondered on my since. as i was talking down the corridors of the classes and just passed 48, a small voice, a small sound. it sounded like the rustling of the leaves. i didnt care and i continued walking. but suddenely someone called out my name. as i reached closer and closer to the source of the sound, i got a shocked- it was plant piola who has called me by my name. at that point of time i saw teardrops transpiring from the leaves. i was surprised at this but i wiped them off with my hand. but when i felt the tears, it was warm. i didnt know what was happening. dumbed by this situation, i decided to have a heart-to-heart talk. i responded: "hello piola", and guess what, it replied. "hello, ive been calling, ive been waiting but there was no answers." "what happened?" i questioned. "ive been sad. at first when i got my name i was overjoyed because i had comapny and got away from the hot and humid jungles of Singapore." i interjected " so why you crying?" "because im so alone. im so afraid. at first you people cared, but as time passed, the water that was poured into me started diminishing. as you people did not care to water, the turgor pressure that has been within me was starting to lose steam. even with sheer determination and with hope that you people will save me, you didnt. this teardrop that you see, is my last drop of water before i start withering and die. my leaves have turned yellow. what was once a beautiful green, has faded because... of YOU! YOU did not care about me as much as you once did." after this conversation i immediately poured water into the pot and plant piola seemed really pleased and indeed it started putting a smiley face; a configuration of leaves in a pattern which looked liked one. thought this story is fictitious but im telling you people is timed you cared. seriously, the leaves have turned yellow, the roots is sightly out due to lack of soil. in due time, there will be a new plan. plant piola if you are reading this, feel happy that we people in 48 care and remember to tag in the tagboard. the same applies to humans. hehe!! |
