My Poem (ASSESSMENT)

Aboriginal Death-Song

Henry Kendall



FEET of the flying, and fierce
Tops of the sharp-headed spear,
Hard by the thickets that pierce,
Lo! they are nimble and near. Women are we, and the wives
Strong Arrawatta hath won;
Weary because of our lives,
Sick of the face of the sun.

Koola, our love and our light,
What have they done unto you?
Man of the star-reaching sight,
Dipped in the fire and the dew.

Black-headed snakes in the grass
Struck at the fleet-footed lord—
Still is his voice at the pass,
Soundless his step at the ford.

Far by the forested glen,
Starkly he lies in the rain;
Kings of the council of men
Shout for their leader in vain.

Yea, and the fish-river clear
Never shall blacken below
Spear and the shadow of spear,
Bow and the shadow of bow.

Hunter and climber of trees,
Now doth his tomahawk rust,
(Dread of the cunning wild bees),
Hidden in hillocks of dust.

We, who were followed and bound,
Dashed under foot by the foe,
Sit with our eyes to the ground,
Faint from the brand and the blow.

Dumb with the sorrow that kills,
Sorrow for brother and chief,
Terror of thundering hills,
Having no hope in our grief,

Seeing the fathers are far
Seeking the spoils of the dead
Left on the path of the war,
Matted and mangled and red.

What the poem is talking about is the Aboriginal people taken away, their lives haves also been taken away and the pain that they went through when the British people came from England.  I t really gets through to you when some people have came from no where and just steal your generation,  the land and take away all the food the Aboriginals.

The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

What ever you do to other you are doing to God.

Ask and it will be given to you, be peristence and widow.

So even though the rich young ruler kept all the commandments, he was not willing to give up all his wealth and follow Jesus, and this is what Jesus told him to do if he wished to be perfect and have eternal life.

2.) Provide an example of real life situation or person who has demonstrated any of the qualities you have listed.
