When the morning light melts through the gaps in the trees and spreads to the ground in the forest, a small yet very attractive piece of beauty comes to mind - a yellow flower with white petals. The appearance of this small flower in the crowd of dense green vines, shrubs and dry leaves is like a bright brush stroke painted on nature's canvas. Its petals are very small and simple, but so perfectly arranged that it seems that nature has drawn every line with great care. I like these flowers even more when I notice that the buds are wet. However, in the morning, the flowers are a little more visible and look very beautiful. The glimmer of golden yellow inside the white petals seems to smile and draw the sunlight into its chest. The shape of the flower is soft but firm. It sways at the light touch of the wind, yet it does not break. The presence of this flower, breaking the silence in the forest, combined with the chirping of birds and the sounds of crickets, makes the environment more peaceful and lively. From a distance, it seems like a small white-yellow star is blooming on the green carpet of the forest. When many of its flowers are seen blooming side by side, it is much nicer. And I also like taking photos from such an environment. Because I have noticed that the noise of bumblebees and butterflies around it creates a different rhythm of life. They come down, collect honey, and fly away again, not leaving the flower alone for a moment. Sometimes dew drops accumulate on the corners of the white petals, and when the sunlight falls, they sparkle like pearls. Then the flower becomes brighter, more alive. I often notice that such flowers bloom more due to the monsoon rains. From the month of Ashadh Shrawan to the month of Bhadra Ashwin, this flower can be seen in various places including crop fields and forests. I took this photograph from the side of the pond. The name of this flower is Tridax procumbens. However, its name is different in different villages of Bangladesh. These flowering plants are used as grass for cows and goats, so people of different times have given them different names. However, regional names are not a big deal, we need to know the English names and I think it is better to highlight its correct name among others.
