Slope Deteriorating Health 2

More updates of the slope. It is starting to bald near the stairs too. Sighz sometimes, it is hard to climb up stairs properly =(

Same Spot Not Same Life

We are both besides a zebra crossing.
We are both pointed in shape.
We both have a traffic light stuck on us.

However people do not step on you but they have no qualms stepping me.
However you are safe and protected while I am struggling with the human traffic rushing towards me.
However your grass is thriving while mine is dying.

Same spot not same life. Sighz

Long Path

In the past, I used to pass by a MRT station where one can see a long stretch of man-made path. At that time, I wish to be able to snap it down but I never had a chance to.

Now I no longer take MRT. Yet I still get to see a similar situation in this part of my destination. Maybe it is fated that I should record it down.

A long path that cuts across a wide patch of grass. When I saw it, I felt as if my heart suffered a long cut too. Sighz.

Other Grass Killers

Grass always thought that human are the only one that can harm them. But maybe not?

Bushes that cluster together...
Big trees with wide canopy...

These might block the grass from receiving sufficient sunlight thus affecting their survival rate??? But wild grass has a strong determination to live... they should not and will not be easily defeated.

Grass new friend - Plastic Bag

Grass has a new friend today. His name is Plastic Bag.

Plastic Bag has a gloomy look. He told Grass his sad story...

Plastic Bag was manufactured in a factory for an important mission, to help human being carry their stuff. He and all his family members left the factory packed together. Their aspiration was to be as helpful as possible. They wish to be with their mistress forever since they can be reuse due to their durability.

Plastic Bag first met his mistress in a convenience shop. His mistress has just bought a loaf of bread and his first mission was to hold the bread for his mistress. Plastic Bag was excited at his first mission. He was careful not to make any mistake.
Upon arriving his mistress’ house, Plastic Bag was folded in a triangle and kept nicely into a container. He fervently waited for his next mission.
One day, his mistress took him out to hold some books. The two of them went out to her intended destination. His mistress met a friend and passed the books (together with Plastic Bag) to the friend. Then she left. The friend took the books out and put them into her bag. Then she threw Plastic Bag carelessly on the grass patch.
Plastic Bag was shocked. He had become a litter to the environment. This is the fate that all plastic bags feared. To be abandoned and treated as litter or even killer as plastic bags can be life threatening to birds and marine life. Plastic Bag does not want this fate. But he is too light and helpless to overcome this situation.
Grass felt Plastic Bag’s hurt. He gave Plastic Bag a hug.
