CONTOH REPORT TEXT ABOUT MANGROVE TREE

A mangrove is a tropical marine tree. Mangroves have special aerial roots

and salt-filtering tap roots which enable them to thrive in brackish water. Brackish
water is salty but not as salty as sea water. Mangrove trees are commonly planted
and found in coastal areas. Mangroves can serve as walls of protection for natural
disaster in coastal area like tsunami. According to BBC News, healthy mangrove
forests had helped save lives in the Asia disaster tsunami and people tended to
respect these natural barriers even more, especially after the tsunami.

There are several species of mangrove tree found all over the world. Some
prefer more salinity, while others like to be very-close to a large fresh water
source such as river. Some prefer areas that are sheltered from waves. Some
species have their roots covered with sea water every day during high tide. Other
species grow on dry land but are still part of the ecosystem. The Times of India
reported that rare species of mangrove had been found and was also known as
the looking-glass tree, probably because the leaves are silver-coated.

Mangroves need to keep their trunk and leave above the surface of the
water. Yet they also need to be firmly attached to the ground so they are not
moved by waves.

Any part of root that appears above the water flows oxygen to the plant
under water surface. as the soil begin to build up, these roots procedure
additional roots that become embedded in the soil.

Banjir kehilangan segala yang mereka
punya
Air tercurah deras dari langit jiwa
Gemuruh awan, bercahaya kilat keluarga
Ranting palem terhempas angin barat kerja
sanak-keluarga
Sampahpun ikut terhanyut
harta benda? pabila ada
seorang perempuan lari, tak
Muara sungai tertutup sampah sempat membawa yang ia miliki
Rawa hilang teronggok sampah kecuali dalam pelukan
Seluruh tempat penuh sampah gendongan
Menyengatkan bau dan sumpah serapah seorang anak satu-satunya,
bagai biji-mata ibu-bapak
Air deras tak tertahankan
Daratan telah penuh hutan beton Kini tlah terjadi
Tak ada lagi akar yang menahan apa yang dipikiri
Air memenuhi darat dengan perlahan penyembuhan diri
penguatan hati
Rumah telah penuh dengan air pikir dulu hari ini
Rumah tenggelam oleh banjir
Harapan
Adakah ingatan untuk sadar
'tuk Penguasa Negara
Sampah sumber banjir bantuan dari beberapa negara
puisi bencana alam yang tiba
Bencana Alam terima dengan tangan terbuka
bijak - tepat - cepat
Alam, pelaksanaan mulia
Banyak yang telah kau beri tak pandang bulu
Kayu, Minyak, Batubara tak pandang suku
Dan segalanya tuk kepentingan mereka yang
sedang pilu
Namun, kini tlah tiada bagai diiris dengan sembilu
Setelah bencana di mana-mana
Bangunan, Pohon dan segalanya Pabila mereka pulang ke
Rusak sudah kampung halaman
anak-anak bisa bermain riang
Maafkan kami manusia dengan harapan
Yang telah merusakmu ada tempat berteduh
Kami kan berjanji akan merawatmu 'tuk hidup
kerja mereka butuh
BENCANA GEMPA BUMI DAN GUNUNG
MERAPI Semoga
Semua keluarga yang tertimpa
Mereka tak menduga musibah
mala petaka menimpa cepat sembuh
meratap pedih jasmani - rohani
tabahkan hati
naluri anak ibu Pertiwi. Segala cobaan kau lemparkan
Dengan sekuat hati menerima kenyataan
ini
Situ Gintung .
Mereka yang berlari Kami hanya manusia biasa
Menghindari Mati Dan tak luput dari dosa
Berharap napas kan terpanjang Berilah kami kedamaian
Walau hanya sedetik, lagi Ohh .. engkau yang kuasa ..
Mereka lalu terdiam .
Tersesak, Tertangis Langkah demi langkah hati ini bergetar
Dan Mereka ditanya Apakah ini teguran yang kuasa ??
Aku terdiam menanya Teguran yang tidak bisa ditawar..
Kenapa Semoga perjuangan hidup ini tidak sia-sia.
Saat ku duduk
Lalu melihat keatas Puisi bencana
Mereka Tersenyum Ketika tuhan memberi pertanda
Minta diri Kami tak peka terhadapnya
Untuk hari ini Ketika tuhan memberi peringatan
Dan kita yang masih bernapas Kami pun acuh karenanya
Untuk Esok Lalu kau porak porandakan isi dunia
Akankah kita belajar dan bernapas demi gunung gunung menghamburkan
diri sendiri? baranya
Lautan menumpahkan cairannya
Bencana Untuk Negriku Bumi menggoyangkan perutnya
Pohon beterbangan air laut tumpah Kami meronta ronta dan merintih
Bak air yang di tumpahkan Menggoreskan kabar kelam dalam hati
Karena. karena kemarahan pencipta Tak banyak mahklukmu yang sadar
Semua orang berlari Bahkan mereka masih tetep melawanmu
Berlari tanpa melihat ke belakang Tuhan
Tak perduli dengan orang yang mereka Saat kerlip bintang menghampiriku
cintai ku tak sanggup menemuinya
Menangis-menangis yang ada karena aku tak sesuci dirimu
Tanpa ada perubahan Tuhan
Ketika aku bersimpuh menghadapmu
BuKan hanya letusan gunung merapi
kuberharap hentikan amarahmu
Banyak bencana- bencana sekarang yg
karena aku tak sekuat dirimu
terjadi Tuhan
Aku hanya bisa terpaku dan terdiam Aku sadar cahayamu selalu menyertaiku
diatas puing-puing menimpaku
Laut marah aku mohon berikan yang terbaik bagiku
Gunung gelisah Tuhan
Indonesia pun resah Ku-lantunkan asmamu terakhir kalinya
. sebelum aku menutup mataku
Kami mohon padamu Tuhan agar aku tetap disisimuu
Jangan lah ini terjadi lagi ..
 TULIP

Overview
Tulips (Tulipa species) are one of the first signs of spring and are the world's most financially important
ornamental flower crop, according to Floridata. These colorful bulb flowers are a favorite with home
gardeners not only for their beauty, but for the fact that they are easy to plant and grow. Tulips
comprise more than 2,000 species and cultivars, which have been divided into 15 classifications. The
flowers are classified in part by their appearances.
Bulbs
Tulip bulbs in general are shaped like teardrops, with a pointed tip on one end and a much wider,
rounded edge on the opposite end. Depending on the variety, the point at the tip may be very apparent,
or one end might be a little less rounded than the other. The bulbs are covered with thin layers of
papery skin that flakes off easily. They should be planted with the pointed side facing upward, at least 6
inches below the surface of the soil.

Size
In general, the larger the bulb, the bigger the tulip will be, and this is especially true when it comes to
bloom sizes. Tulips also range widely in height, from the small, 4-inch tall Kaufmanniana tulip to several
varieties, including the popular Darwin hybrids, that can reach up to 30 inches in height.

Leaves
Tulip leaves are green, but the color can vary from a deep, dark green to a bright or light shade. The
leaves can be as long as the stems or quite a bit shorter, depending on the variety, and range in width
from less than an inch to 2 or 3 inches. They can also appear with straight edges or wavy edges, again
depending on the type of tulip.

Flower
All varieties of tulips, save the one, have just one flower that sits atop a sturdy stem. The appropriately
named multiflowering tulips have branching stems that produce three or four flowers on each plant. The
shape of the tulip flower can appear much like a lily, a cup, or an inverted, ruffled skirt. While most
tulips have a single layer of smooth-edged, ovate petals, there are some exceptions. The Parrot tulip has
petals that have long fringes (also called "feathers") on the edges, or petals that are twisted or curled.
Double-late tulips have so many layers of petals that they look more like peonies, according to Iowa
State University. The stamens on tulips are quite obvious, although the flowers themselves have no
nectar.

Colors
Tulips come in almost any shade imaginable, save blue, according to the University of Illinois. Many are
variegated, such as Greigii tulips, which can be striped or appear to have blotches of contrasting color.
Some varieties of Parrot tulips have green spots at the bottom of each individual petal. Home gardeners
tend to choose tulips as a group by the hue rather than the color. Many prefer pastel colors only, while
others choose only varieties that are bright and bold.
