The World of
Saia
Saia
Pronounciation:
"Sah-ee-ah"
A world of spring and winter, Saia hibernates through long elliptical winters to be reborn anew as the giant forests soak up the melting oceans. The anthrocyanins, a people struggling to feed a growing population, have done all they can to increase yield, but their forgotten role as pigment sources for plants must be re-awoken before the blight consumes the globe.
Forgotten Language
Shel Silverstein
Once I spoke the language of the flowers,
Once I understood each word the caterpillar said,
Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings,
And shared a conversation with the housefly in my bed.
Once I heard and answered all the questions of the crickets,
And joined the crying of each falling dying flake of snow,
Once I spoke the language of the flowers. . . .
How did it go? How did it go?
