Appreciating Beauty: The Four S's: Sound, Sight, and your Sixth Sense
Botany by NLIconnect
Plants, it seems so easy,
On the contrary they’ll make you queasy.
Ever heard of the venus fly-trap?
Yo’ jaw will drop when a frog feels its snap.
But that’s just one aspect of botany,
You don’t deal with rotten plants g.
Mosses, lichens, fungi, and seeds,
It’s a good way to dirty up your Harris tweeds.
And maybe you can check out the algae,
They grow a few hundred feet under the trees.
Heck yeah, botany pretty dangerous,
Gotta zipline through poisonous areas.
Some of these plants straight spit out venom,
They’ll burn a hole right through your denim.
You thought it was all fun and games,
It ain’t the quickest way to gain fame.
Gotta work hard to get a good name,
You think it’s easy man who you tryna frame!
Botanists go through a rainy site,
Pluck some plants somebody’s taken a bite,
Plants and a bug got into a mean fight.
It’s a struggle between nature and science,
The same thing happened to the ancient Maya.
Cuz it’s a lotta hard work,
Anyone who denies plants important: you a jerk.
Heck yeah, botany pretty dangerous,
Gotta zipline through poisonous areas.
Some of these plants straight spit out venom,
They’ll burn a hole right through your denim.
There are a few things botanists do,
They look at trees and pick out their fruit.
Analyze their deoxyribonucleic acid,
Make sure nothing smells too rancid.
Cuz if you do it might be a fungus,
Opens up a whole new world fun for all of us.
They’re complicated little objects,
It’s been few hundred years since they started these projects.
Just ask the honorable Dr. Lucking,
There’s a reason the last fo’ letters spell “King,”
Twenty-five years’ botany work on lichens,
Impressive results designed to psych ‘em.

Gotta zipline through poisonous areas.
