Unbearable Weightiness of becoming: Crispy's odyssey for greenness


In the month of autumnal September, hurriedly heading towards a palace of greenness, Crispy dragged her withered body and flew along with the wind. Her thorns often hurt her body but her desire for greenesss was abundantly more than the pain. She was laughed at by others for her shriveled and infertile body but she kept on enduring the unbearable. Palace of greenness was controlled by two sisters Petal and Sepal who were leafy, pink and prime.

Swallowing and digesting the pain, Crispy knocked at the door of palace and was right away asked by greeny guards to wait either for the next life or apply for herbarium's fellowship. Dimming along with the setting sun she yearned for a new life. Months passed by and in the mid of spring she gave birth to a baby Bloom who was intensively fresh and graphically gorgeous lefting his mother more wrinkled . Moving forward with a hope of admission into the palace because of her attached adorable son, she kept on trekking. She suffered a lot in her way but she still kept on moving.

She again knocked at the door of palace and asked for the entry but green guards forked her into two and snatched away her son Bloom.She was thrown out in the dry dusty ground of a green garden where people were clicking pictures with pinky and rosy flowers while Crispy laid there thinking about the unbearable weightiness of becoming and asked herself, "Shall I try for herbarium's fellowship?"
