She fell in love with a star

In her eyes, he was the brightest STAR;
That made her whole life shine.
Pouring the shimmering light
Upon her soul.
He is her whole universe,
glistening the holy-light upon her soft lips.
He is the vast ocean,
calming her soul.
He is the wind
beneath her wings…….
He is the light within her eyes,
And the love that’s taken hold of
her whole heart forever!
Like the millions of stars that gives light to the universe;
He makes her love sparkle in soft kisses and touches.
Because love is pure just like that!

Taq polymerase boasts

To me who was hiding in Thermusaquaticus body
Have you ever imagined that I could do so much heroism?
Did you think I could go that far?
Although I spend a lot of time in the lab refrigerator, me who came out suffering from hot water is essential for laboratories today
By amplifying genes in a plastic tube and helping you succeed in your experiments,
I give you satisfaction
I make you mentally happy.
Unlike other relatives of my family, my stability is maximized at high temperatures
Because of the time spent suffering from hot water, i can sleep in a plastic tube even at high temperatures
It’s the hardest thing you can do. I know it
When I remember that, I laugh sarcastically..
As an energetic cop
I control the traffic in DNA-primer junction
When I approach the optimal temperature
I can clearly indicate the path to the deoxynucleoside triphosphates near the junction by showing a green light
My supporting cop Mg+2 promotes my work here
Although the accidents and mismatches involving deoxynucleoside triphosphate near the junction could not be properly stopped
I do exactly what you expect me to do..

Waves

Though it is a sunny day,
I’m very cold,
The sea is approaching and leaving, again and again;
The sand and the sun shine
brightly as a Daffodil,
Inside I’m freezing,
with wandering eyes on sea waves.
The sea is bright and shines,
though it is deep;
Blue, blue , blue a mixture of blue,
I; looking at the sea as
I can’t at myself;
Deep in thought to turn
back the time; if I could.
I’m alone, alone , alone and alone,
I don’t have a shadow as I betray it,
I had it,
only it but nothing else;
Without my shadow I’m nothing.
The waves can go back and come again,
But I can’t;
I can’t take it back,
I’m trying to change; but I’m afraid,
Whether those waves will come again even if I try to stop.

Words: Kalanavi Perera
