Death of a Bitter Gourd

Following three pictures were taken with in a time frame of one hour.

The bitter gourd looked sad and crestfallen. Seemed tired and at the threshold of it's death. After awhile it opened up a little bit. I could see it had turned bit red, more crestfallen. Looked much sprawled, seemed to have given up it's present body. Opened up wider, little later, looked like dead...lost it's form...lost it's natural existence.

But again, every death is another beginning...
