Working with Kids is always a blessing

Posted on by alexmayeye

Anyone who has ever worked with children can admit that there are many joys and rewards recieved as a result. Their smiles and innocence are a rich reward. Your one positive influence could be that helps that child become something great in life, and that my friend is reward in itself. Last week, i couldnt pass the chance to travel with the class one students of Loresho Primary School a school in my neighbourhood on their school trip to the Nairobi Animal Orphanage and the Bomas of Kenya to document their trip for the school.

The Forbidden Fruit: When Adam Met Eve

Posted on by alexmayeye

The woman was convinced. She looked at the tree of knowledge and its fruit looked delicious,and she wanted the wisdom it would give her.

They wandered carelessly through the leafy grove,
Basking in sunshine and their sinless love,
Like children playing on a verdant lawn,
As free from passion as a timid fawn.
No clouds had yet obscured the brilliant sun;
The storm and tempest had not yet begun.
It seemed that nature for itself did grieve
When Adam knew the first embrace of Eve.
Passion as yet had never warmed their frames

a&e3

Passion as yet had never warmed their frames
Nor stirred their blood with its insidious flames.
Children in thought, but full of manly life,
Their sleeping demons knew no heat nor strife.
Love was a passion hidden in each heart,
Whose wild desires time would to each impart

.a&e4

So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it, too.

a&e5

For, all unconscious of those hidden fires,
They ne’er had yet felt love’s sweet, warm desires
Nor known the joys they ne’er had tasted,
Nor all the hours they both had wasted.
Had they but known love’s pure and fond delight
“Forbidden Fruit” were tasted the first night

a&e6
