The Creator & His Creation!

Wings“You have heaven adorned, earth beautified, the sea populated with its own creatures, the air filled with birds which brighten it in every direction. Studious listener, think of all these creations which God has drawn out of nothing; recognize everywhere the wisdom of God; never cease to wonder, and, through every creature, to glorify the Creator.”-St. Basil the Great

Tweets of Thanks!

A whistle here ;a whistle there

A call here;a call there

Freely we chirp; in this wilderness so bare

Raising our tweets in thanks

To Our Lord God, of us, who takes careĀ

The War of the Pigeons

Rock Pigeons perched on the Madrasa Dome

“Onward we shall march”, announced the general to his peers

“They destroyed our abode, now we shall destroy theirs”

“How?” questioned the little soldier

“Their monuments are ugly but unyielding

Their cities crowded but well guarded”

“Chase them away” suggested the Peckers

“hmm” murmured the General

“Build nests into their edifices” suggested the Nesters

“hmmm” responded the General

“Poop shall we?” queried the Bombers

“Our acids will decay their edifices

They will rot in disease with our feces”

“Poop shall we?” inquired the Bombers again

“Poop we shall” confirmed the General

The Chipmunk & the Water Hen

Chipmunk & White breasted water hen

Its a small world
& there are oh so few places left where we can survive
But its our world too, as much as it’s theirs
and by sharing with each other we shall strive
to show them that we care and hope that they do too
