DNA’s Legacy :
In the heart of the cell, where secrets unfold,
A story of life in the strands we behold.
Adenine waits with a welcoming grace,
Pairing with thymine in a warm, tight embrace...
Guanine stands strong, a guardian so bright,
With cytosine’s wisdom, they dance in the light...
Together they form the double helix’s might,
A blueprint of being, in day and in night...
A’s and T’s whisper, G’s connect with C,
Crafting the code of our shared tapestry...
Each base has its purpose, a role to fulfill,
In the tapestry woven with nature’s own skill...
But in RNA’s realm, a twist comes alive,
Uridine enters, where thymine would thrive...
In this vibrant dance, new stories take flight,
As genes tell their tales in the soft morning light...
From the smallest of creatures to vast, mighty trees,
Each organism carries these letters with ease...
With every mutation, each spark of new life,
Genetics unfolds through both joy and through strife...
So here’s to the bases, our heritage bright,
Adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine,
And uridine too, in the genetic song,
With the rhythm of life, where we all belong...
