A Morning Scene
The faint melodious sounds of insects buzzing to attract their mates and frogs croaking under the falling dew from the trees, announcing the fall of the night and greatly anticipating the rise of the day. While the humans are still asleep in slumber land, the animals of every corner of the earth are waiting to celebrate a new day, an adventure full of excitement, directly from God. Unfortunately the nocturnal animal, the owl is spotted to be ready for a long sleep and to dream the night away - will miss it all.

By perfect timing, the miraculous event happens Mother Nature sets its course.Flashes light up the desolate night. A new lease of life begins to flourish, touching every living thing in sight, giving them immaculate and divine solace. It is fate that had sent the poignant moon away. The same moon that showered us with romance during seemly endless nights. Now all it can do is to back us with its convincing goodbyes and hope that we remember his passionate love, the dim lights of the dark skies.

Wait a minute; I see something beyond the horizons. The seas, the hills, the trees,the skies, the clouds, all ready to greet the morning star, to bow down to their king. It is as if they shouted out loudly with one voice.

"All glory, all power and all sovereignty belongs to our master and king forever and ever, till the end of time!"

It is meant to be. The day awaits it. The glorious sun so astute to show off its radiant face is still so inchoate and has not fully risen.

The sun is growing and growing in size and its glimmering light shines brighter and brighter. The inhabitants of the earth, all kinds of plants and flowers; showing its gradual appealing beauty, reflecting the light of the sun on its colour. Sweet smelling roses, wan at night, becoming redder and redder under the rising sun. The unique morning glory, the flower so connected with time, opens and blossoms as the light brightens. Its petals welcome the day, basking in the light.

    "They hear. They all hear the speaking of the tree. Today, the first and last of every tree speaks to humankind. Come to me, here beside the river. Plant yourself beside me, here beside the river," is another form of personification used by Angelou. The tree is also talking to the people, asking them to "plant" themselves beside it. It is saying that it is there to hold the person up, to be used at strength, something to lean against, in order to fight away all the hatred in the world. It is there for the person if they…

    At quarter to two, the moon shone down with an ashen glow. Its sullen radiance provided the perfect ambience in front of his bedroom window. Lighting barely filtered through the layers of fog, another set of curtains that hung beyond paned glass. Expected footsteps pierced through thin walls, disrupting him from slumber and once again, forcing his attention across the street.…

    As the main character in the Greek classic “Antigone,” Creon undergoes recognition and a reversal of fortune. Recognition is defined when the main character changes from ignorance to awareness. Reversal of fortune is described as a turn in fortune, usually from good fortune to bad fortune. Creon is also a better fit to Aristotle’s criteria of a tragic hero because the definition of a tragic hero is someone who holds great status and has hamartia. Harmartia is defined as a major character flaw that plays a part in the downfall of the character. Also, Aristotle states that in a plot the tragic hero has to go through reversal of fortune as well as recognition. It is Creon who experiences all of these elements making him the true tragic hero and the main character in the play.…

    Each new day begins with a sunrise. It brings to earth a new light that has never been seen before. The new light starts small and gradually reaches its peak in the vast sky. It nourishes the land, provides warmth and comfort, and inspires epic tales. As the day ages the light slowly sinks behind the horizon leaving behind brilliant splashes of color as if to reflect upon its accomplishment, but the pallet of colors will quickly fade to black as the light leaves the sky to go to places unknown. Even though the day was bright and created wonder it must give way to the tranquil, mysterious, and cool night.…

    Thought and Owl

    • 295 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The connection between humans and animals is truly a special one as demonstrated in Tim Bowling's "Snowy Owl After Midnight." The speaker in the short story feels closely connected to the owl as he walks in the forest at night. The speaker believes that the owl "waits for [him]" and that the owl's "blood stirs/ at [his] presence." Also, the owl seems to understand the "heightened smell of joy and fear/ [the speaker's] bones give off. Since the night is "so quiet," the speaker feels that he and the owl are the only two "awake," Strengthening their bond even more. Both the owl and the hunter are on a search for food hence they feel a sense of connection with each other during the long dark night. As they travel together, the speaker remembers the "months" they've spent circling in "each other's silence." The speaker has a sudden urge to break the silence and talk to the owl as a friend. He longs to express to the beautiful winged creature about his "boyish dream" that consisted of the "beating heart of a snowman." Furthermore, the speaker wishes to hear the thoughts of the owl about the "blood" that is on the earth and what the owl would think if he knew the deaths that could be caused by the "clipped, pale hands" of the hunter. In some ways, the hunter desires to be like the owl. As quoted anonymously, "A wise old owl sat on an oak; The more he saw the less he spoke; The less he spoke the more he heard; Why aren't we like that wise old bird?"As the "dark and silent" night goes on, the hunter and the owl loyally remain by each others…

    Owl was a very quiet, but lazy bird. He was very different from other birds though, and he was always treated unfairly just because of his appearance. He had a beak that curved in towards the bottom, a very wide body shape, big eyes, and a large rounded head. The only thing that made owl and the other birds alike was the way they lived. He ate just like them, bathed just like them, and slept just like them, but one day something strange happened. Millions of years ago, there was no darkness, only daylight. The birds still slept, but they slept in nothing but daylight. One day, Owl wasn't feeling himself anymore, he asked all the other birds if they noticed anything different about him and they all said no. Many hours later, all of the birds knew that it was midnight, and that it was time to go to sleep, so they did. All but Owl, he did not feel like he needed any sleep. He stayed up for a few hours and all of a sudden the sky above him turned into pure darkness. Owl was confused but scared at the same time, so he told all of the other birds to wake up, and they did. They thought and thought, but could not find out what had made the sky so dark. Soon after the darkness went away and daylight came, they found out that Owl had not slept from 12am-7am. Every night after that, Owl would not sleep, so the sky would remain dark throughout the whole night. Owl's lack of sleep is the reason why it's dark at night, and will forever remain that way until Owl decides to sleep at night again.…
