The Last Kingdom

 

The Last Kingdom

 

The series "The Last Kingdom" is a  blockbuster, as the book of Bernard Cornwell depicts history larger than life.  Thank you for the actors, staff and production who worked hard for us/viewers to enjoy watching and think about passion, honor and fate.  The good values, as well, cannot tarnish any man of his faith, if for love of humanity.  We saw how leaders and people pray earnestly, how some monks are made to choose paths, how the heathen become good at heart and about courage to realize an oath.  Blessed days ahead for everyone! Oh, yes, I'm a fan of Uhtred and everyone there, and of course, Cornwell!    Yay!

 

In August. From Netflix/You Tube. OUTLANDER

 OUTLANDER

Merlin

Can't stop watching Merlin... It brings back a kid's memory of fairy tales  and the fun of enchantment for young and old, alike.  It brings you back learning the basic morals in life and a vision of possibilities a good heart can win.  Thank you.

GETTING WATER

January 26, 2013

GETTING WATER

(For A Maid)

It was an experiment of a well

where you get water, pail by pail or drop by drop

Rain fills that well, dug, layers down

So she and I would scoop our pails,

carry them meters’ going back house.

The pail was not heavy for us, for

we were both young and arduous.

We filled drums, as saving water for our home

It was easy, yet her hands mottled red

while she gripped the sleek handle,

carrying on a task to please me -

my eyes swelled of her devotion…

I said to myself, “My hands must never be tired.

They must carry more than her hands.”

Perhaps, seven times her courage -

I am sorry, for what they did.

I am sorry, for what I did not do.

Thank you for getting water for us.
