Fire And Ice

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To know that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Ang nasabing handaan ay upang magsilbing pasalubong sa isang binatang kagagaling lamang sa Europa, na hindi iba sa Kapitan sapagkat ito ay anak ng kanyang matalik na kaibigan. Ang pagsalubong ay gaganapin sa kanyang bahay sa kalye ng Anluwage. Napuno ng mga panauhin ang tahanan ni Kapitan Tiyago, sapagkat sa lugar na iyon, isang malaking karangalan ang maging panauhin ng Kapitan.

The Legend of Chocolate Hills (Ang Alamat ng mga Bundok ng Tsokolate )

(Tagbilaran Bohol – Visayas) It is said that in the early times, the island of Bohol in the Visayas is a vast mass of dry land.  Rice fields tend to crack under the heat of the sun. During the rainy season, the dusty land turns into a stream of mud. It is only during the  rice season that the fields turn into a refreshing sea of green. It was one day during the rainy season that two giants came into the land of Bohol. One of them was from the north and the other was from the south. Not for long, the two giants met eye to eye.

I  am here first!," answered the North Giant. "If you want, you leave!" "This cannot be happening!" shouted the South Giant with a stomp. The whole ground shook. Since it has just rained, the ground was muddy. The giant scooped...

The Harvest That Never Came A Swedish Legend

Told by Aaron Shepard Printed in Cricket, January 1993, and Australia’s School Magazine, May 1996 My dearest Arild, I promised to wait for you forever, but I fear I will not be allowed to. My father says you will never return, and he has chosen another man to be my husband. Though I pleaded with him, he has already set the marriage date. I will love you always.
