Moss
Mosses are small flowerless plants that typically grow in dense green clumps or mats, often in damp or shady locations. The individual plants are usually composed of simple, one-cell thick leaves, attached to a stem that may be branched or unbranched and has only a limited role in conducting water and nutrients. Although some species have vascular tissue this is generally poorly developed and structurally different from similar tissue found in other plants. They do not have seeds and after fertilisation develop sporophytes (unbranched stalks topped with single capsules containing spores). They are typically 0.2–10 cm (0.1–3.9 in) tall, though some species are much larger, like Dawsonia, the tallest moss in the world, which can grow to 50 cm (20 in) in height.
Mosses are commonly confused with lichens, hornworts, and liverworts. Lichens may superficially look like mosses, and have common names that include the word "moss" (e.g., "reindeer moss" or "iceland moss"), but are not related to mosses. Mosses, hornworts, and liverworts are collectively called "bryophytes". Bryophytes share the property of having the haploid gametophyte generation as the dominant phase of the life cycle. This contrasts with the pattern in all "vascular" plants (seed plants and pteridophytes), where the diploid sporophyte generation is dominant.
Mossé
Mossé is a French family name:
Mossø
Mossø is Denmark's third largest freshwater lake and Jutland's largest, as measured by surface area. The lake is located just east of the city of Skanderborg in east Jutland, but is part of both Skanderborg Municipality and Horsens Municipality. Mossø lies in the middle of the area and landscape known as Søhøjlandet (English: The Lake-highland).
There is a small lake named Mossø in the forest of Rold Skov in Himmerland.
Nature
Both ospreys and white-tailed eagle is regularly observed at Mossø and the later have recently established here as a breeding bird, which is rare in Denmark.
Mossø is part of the 4,470 ha Natura 2000 protection area, designated as number 52. The lake is also designated as an international bird protection area, with number F35.

Moss Elixir
by: Robyn HitchcockGive me your mascara and your phosphorus
You and I are higher than the loft
Gliding through the snowdrifts in a miniskirt
Glistening and olive, yeah, but soft
Got a ripe tomato here in ecstasy
Got a little apple in your eye
As if you had it all
As if you had no belly
You are on my skin and so am I
Beautiful queen
With your beautiful gene
Beautiful queen
I'm not afraid to be the only person on the planet
I'm not afraid to be the only person in the world with
you
Oh.
In between the different worlds I slip for you
You're the warm creation of a sigh
As if you had no will
As if you had just apples
Tumbling between you and the sky
Beautiful queen
With your beautiful gene
Beautiful queen
I'm not afraid to be the only person on the planet
I'm not afraid to be the only person in the world with
you
Thrill me again
Won't you thrill me again?
Won't you thrill me again?
Every cloud is numbered in the library
So is every kiss and every fly
And when the thunder calls
It trembles in your belly
Vanishing above the letter "Y"
Beautiful queen
With your beautiful gene
Beautiful queen
With your beautiful gene
Beautiful queen
Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh Ooo
