Jalál (Glory), 8 Sulṭán (Sovereignty) 175 B.E. - Saturday, January 26, 2019
We’re in the final countdown of the competition! Only five prompts remain. For this final Creation Saturday, write about something that’s in its final countdown. Have fun! Pigeons Final Countdown Open the front door and listen to the pigeons counting down the final days of winter. The sparrows are shivering silently in their nest, but the pigeons know that spring is coming soon, so they are counting down the final day of winter, and hoping Punxsutawney Phil doesn't see his shadow. Mojave Max hasn't emerged from his burrow, so maybe spring is not so close at hand, but the pigeon don't give a damn. Pigeons don't care what other animals think, they have their own final countdown to spring; they feel the urge to mate, and to lay and brood the next generation. The pigeons have begun the final countdown to spring, with their cooing mating calls.
DAY 2260: “Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction." ― Pablo Picasso” Use this to inspire you blog entry. Creation and destruction God spoke BE and the nothingness of nonexistence ways destroyed. A painter placing paint upon a white canvas, and the plain canvas is destroyed, while a beautiful picture is created. A seed is placed in the ground, the seed is destroyed when it puts out roods and a shoot, while a fruit tree or a flower is created. |
