Hello All,
How are you doing today?
I will try to show something good from our rooftop.
"দাও ফিরে সে অরণ্য লহ এ নগর
লহ যত লৌহ, লোষ্ট্র, কাষ্ট ও প্রস্তর
হে নব সভ্যতা"
I wrote the above words in our mother tongue Bengali.
It simply means "Give back the forest to our urban civilization."
That is, the forest is the refuge of humankind. But as a result of the development of civilization, the tree is being brutally destroyed.
Today, on the border of the forest, grayness has come down.
So we should love the tree. The tree is our friend.
There is no tree, no life exists, the treeless earth is a lifeless cemetery.
Today I spent some time with the trees.
Just this afternoon my hubby (@ashikstd) took me to the roof.
I spent some time with some trees.
There were some trees that just wanted to be seen.
Examples of herbs such as basella, okra, pepper, papaya and many other plants.
Of these, I liked basella very much that is my favorite vegetable.
Anyway I took some pictures of the trees to show you.
Here you just saw my favorite vegetable basella.
The trees are covered in green. This vegetable is my favorite of all things. You will notice that from the small seeds the seedlings are born, growing in beautiful form, the trees are also in the joy of their own mind. I wish I could pick it up and cook it, but the trees are still very small but I'll eat em when they're grownup In Sha Allah.
Seeing them growing little by little; I become happy.
There is more to be seen.
From my childhood, I wished to have a garden with pepper plants.
I've seen before when I visited our village that some of my uncles used to grow pepper plants in big fields.
I was so happy watching these and I used to pluck peppers from those plants.
From that moment I had this dream that I'll grow pepper plants in on my rooftop or in my balcony.
Then I started doing it in my balcony.
I had many pepper plants in my balcony before but they died at a time which did hurt me actually.
Please look deeply at those pepper plants above.
There are many pepper and some of them are looking so nice specially those pepper that's are so close looks like twin.
I'm going to be fascinated as much as I see them.
There is more.
Here's my favorite vegetable eggplant. Not only plant; there are vegetable as well.
Wow we're getting fresh vegetables from plants, I like this thing very much.
And I like to pick vegetables from plants.
There is many more plants on the rooftop.
At the end I want to say everyone that please look how easy this is to grow plants throughout whole year on rooftop or in balcony.
I don't think there's anything easier than this to get fresh vegetables.
Right now many people are in lockdown or in home quarantine for corona virus.
This is high time to do things like this.
We can stay home, we can stay safe and at the same time we can use this time for something greater like this.
I want to say goodbye now.
I'm hoping that this post will get some nice view and I'll be trying to do better in next time.
Thanks.
Sharmin.
