Morning Glory
|
|
Morning Glory
Morning glory is a common name for a number of species of flowering plants in the family the Convolvulaceae, belonging to the following genera:
* Calystegia
* Convolvulus
* Ipomoea
* Merremia
* Rivea
As the name implies, morning glory flowers, which are funnel-shaped, open at morning time, allowing them to be pollinated by hummingbirds, butterflies, bees and other daytime insects and birds, as well as Hawkmoth at dusk for longer blooming variants. The flower typically lasts for a single morning and dies in the afternoon. New flowers bloom each day. The flowers usually start to fade a couple of hours before the petals start showing visible curling. They prefer full sun throughout the day, and mesic soils. In cultivation, most are treated as perennial plants in tropical areas, and as annual plants in colder climates, but some species tolerate winter cold.
Morning glory is also called asagao (in Japanese, a compound of 朝 asa "morning" and 顔 kao "face"). A rare brownish-coloured variant known as Danjuro is very popular. It was first known in China for its medicinal uses, due to the laxative properties of its seeds. It was introduced to the Japanese in the 9th century, and they were first to cultivate it as an ornament. During the Edo Period, it became a very popular ornamental flower. Aztec priests in Mexico were also known to use the plant's hallucinogenic properties to commune with their gods (see Rivea corymbosa).
Ancient Mesoamerican civilizations used it to coagulate rubber latex to produce bouncing rubber balls. The sulphur in the Morning Glory vine served to vulcanize the rubber; a process which pre-dates the Charles Goodyear discovery by over 1000 years.
Because of their fast growth, twining habit, attractive flowers, and tolerance for poor, dry soils, some morning glories are excellent vines for creating summer shade on building walls when trellised, thus keeping the building cooler and reducing air conditioning costs.

Kiambang

Kiambang
Kiambang
kau kembang di pinggir kali
Ungu warnamu berseri
Walaupun baumu tak seharum mawar
Namun kau masih tetap menawan
Kiambang
Bayangmu di air tenang
Mencerminkan wajah keriangan
Walaupun hidupmu dalam kesepian
Hanya berteman cahaya rembulan
Nasibmu kiambang di pinggir kali
Sedang kau mekar menghiasi desa
Kemarau panjang pun tiba
Keringlah dikau dalam dahaga

Lanskap (Landscape)
|
|
A landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including physical elements such as landforms, living elements of flora and fauna, abstract elements such as lighting and weather conditions, and human elements, for instance human activity or the built environment. Landscape may also signify the objects around one in a building.
mology
The word landscape comes from the Dutch word landschap, from land (patch or area that comes from the Basquish word landa meaning labored earth) and the suffix -schap, corresponding to the English suffix "-ship". Landscape, first recorded in 1598, was borrowed as a painters' term from Dutch during the 16th century, when Dutch artists were on the verge of becoming masters of the landscape genre. The Dutch word landschap had earlier meant simply “region, tract of land” but had acquired the artistic sense, which it brought over into English, of “a picture depicting scenery on land.” 34 years pass after the first recorded use of landscape in English before the word is used of a view or vista of natural scenery. This delay suggests that people were first introduced to landscapes in paintings and then saw landscapes in real life. A landscape is wide space in the world that show what is around in the world.

Hujan
|
 |
|
Hujan Semalam
|
|
|

Hujan Semalam
Hujan semalam membasahi bumi
Menyegarkan hati
Hujan berlalu tiada kembali
Menyirami lagi
Cinta semalam meninggalkan kesan
Luka dalam hati
Cinta berlalu bersama hujan
Kini tiada lagi
Sang mentari di pagi hari
Mengeringkan embun
Sang mentari di tengahari
Teriknya terasa di hati
Hujan semalam mungkinkah kembali
Pada esok hari
Dan membawakan cinta nan sejati
Suci dan abadi
Hujan
Hujan merupakan satu bentuk kerpasan, seperti salji, hujan air batu, embun dan kabus. Hujan terbentuk apabila titik air yang terpisah jatuh ke bumi dari awan. Bukan semua air hujan sampai ke permukaan bumi, sesetengahnya terpeluwap ketika jatuh melalui udara kering, sejenis kerpasan yang dikenali sebagai virga.
Hujan memainkan peranan penting dalam kitaran hidrologi di mana kelembapan dari laut terpeluwap, bertukar menjadi awan, terkumpul menjadi awan, jatuh kembali ke bumi, dan akhirnya kembali ke laut melalui sungai dan anak sungai untuk mengulangi kitaran itu semula.
Tolok hujan biasa
Tolok hujan biasa
Jumlah air hujan diukur menggunakan tolok hujan. Alat ini seakan-akan paip kerongga yang tertutup pada bawahnya, dengan satu corong pada hujungnya yang di atas. Alat ini biasanya diletakkan di suatu tempat yang lapang. Jumlah air hujan dinyatakan sebagai kedalaman air yang terkumpul pada permukaan rata, dan diukur kepada 0.25 mm terhampir. Kadang-kadang ia turut disebut dalam liter per meter persegi (1 L/m² = 1 mm).
Tempat yang air hujannya kurang daripada 254 mm (10 inci) setahun dipanggil gurun, manakala jumlah hujan yang lebih daripada 510 mm setahun diperlukan untuk tujuan pertanian. Tetapi sekiranya jumlah hujan lebih daripada 2540 mm setahun, tumbuhan liar boleh menjadi amat subur sehingga mengancam tanam-tanaman.
Air hujan sering digambarkan sebagai berbentuk "lonjong" seperti air mata, lebar di bawah dan tirus di atas, tetapi ini tidak tepat. Air hujan kecil hampir bulat. Air hujan yang besar menjadi semakin leper, seperti roti burger; air hujan yang lebih besar berbentuk payung terjun. Air hujan yang besar jatuh lebih cepat berbanding air hujan yang lebih kecil. Biasanya diameter air hujan ialah antara 1 - 2 mm.
Beberapa kebudayaan telah membentuk kebencian kepada hujan dan telah mencipta pelbagai peralatan seperti payung dan baju hujan. Ramai orang juga lebih gemar berkurung di dalam rumah pada hari hujan. Walau bagaimanapun, kebanyakan orang bersetuju bahawa bau tumbuhan/persekitaran selepas hujan amat menyegarkan.

Hijau
|

Hijau ialah warna yang biasa dinampak dalam alam semula jadi, khususnya tumbuh-tumbuhan. Kebanyakan tumbuh-tumbuhan berwarna hijau, terutamanya kerana tumbuh-tumbuhan mempunyai klorofil, sejenis sebatian yang terlibat dalam proses fotosintesis.
