Ang kawawang Sisiw

       Si sisiw ay mahilig maglaro sa ilalim ng puno ng mangga, isang araw habang siya ang naglalaro ay humangin ng malakas at nahulog ang ilang bunga sa puno ng mangga ang isang bunga ay tumama sa ulo ng sisiw kung kayat umiiyak na umuwi ang sisiw at nagsumbong sa kang nanay na manok. sinabi niyang masakit ang kanyang ulo dahil sa pagkatama ng bunga ng mangga sa kanyang ulo.       Nang dumating ang nanay na bibe ay nagkamustahan ang magkaibigang hayop nasabi ng tandang na maysakit ang kanya anak na si sisiw.  Paguwi ng nanay na bibe ay sinabi niya sa kanyang anak  na malala ang sakit ni sisiw dahil sa ito ay nahulugan ng buko sa ulo, kayat dali daling nagpunta ang batang bibe sa kanilang kaibigang baboy at sinabing malubha ang kalagayan ni sisiw dahil nahulugan ito ng malaking bato sa ulo kayat si baboy ay pumunta kay kambing at sinabing malapit ng mamatay si sisiw dahil ito ay nabagsakan ng malaking bahay sa ulo kayat ang ulo nito ay durog na. dali dali silang nagpunta sa bahay ni sisiw na umiiyak. nagtaka ang tandang bakit sila umiiyak at sinabi nilang patay na si sisiw. nag taka ang tandang sa sinabi nila. Hindi patay si Sisiw siya ay nagpapahinga lamang sa bahay dahil sumakit ang ulo niya sa pagkahulog ng mangga sa ulo niya. Nagtawanan ang magkakaibigang hayop.  Mula noon ay hindi na agad naniniwala ang magkakaibigang hayop sa tuwing maynasasagap silang balita. Inaalam muna nila ang totoong nangyari.

Alamat ng Alitaptap

Bakit kaya may ilaw sa gabi ang mga alitaptap?

Saan kaya nagmula ang mga ilaw nila?

May ilang mga alamat na nagpapaliwanag kung bakit may liwanag kung gabi ang mga alitaptap.

Noong unang panahon ang mga tao ay gumagamit ng apoy upang magkaroon sila ng liwanag sa gabi.  At ang mga hayop ay hindi. Ito ay hindi totoo dahil ang mga alitaptap ay gumagamit ng apoy upang magkaroon ng liwanag sa gabi.  

Noong unang panahon ang mga alitaptap ay isang maliliit na kulisap lamang, sa tuwing lumalabas sila sa gabi ay madalas silang nagtatago sa mga damo, halaman o mga bulaklak hindi dahil takot sila sa dilim itoy dahil sila ay kinakain ng mga kabag-kabag, hayop na kumakain ng mga kulisap. nagtaka ang isang bulaklak na si sampaguita kung bakit sila nagtatago sa tuwing lumalabas sila sa gabi. ipinaliwanag nila na sila ay kinakain ng mga kabag-kabag, tuwing maliwanag ang buwan lamang silang malayang nakakalabas dahil hindi sila gaanung nakikita ng kabag-kabag sa liwanag. Nang malaman ito ni Sampaguita ay tinuruan nila ang mga kulisap na gumamit ng apoy. Ginawa ng mga kulisap ang payo ng bulaklak.  Sabay sabay na nagdala ng apoy ang mga kulisap kayat silay parang alipatong nagliliwanag sa dilim kayat hindi sila nakain ng mga kabag-kabag.

    Mula noon ay lagi ng may dalang apoy ang mga kulisap sa gabi na ngayon ay tinatawag nating alitaptap.

Why a Zebra has stripes
By. Stephanie Lipari
Grade 8 Awtrey middle school
Atlanta, Georgia

USA 

 

 

One day Mr. and Mrs. Zebra were going to a party with all their other Jungle friends. Mr. and Mrs. Zebra both wanted to look very special, but in a different kind of way. Mr. Zebra painted the front part of himself green, like the lizard. You see they were all white back then. Mrs. Zebra painted the back part of herself a tan color, like the lion. Mr. Zebra didn't like the way that Mrs. Zebra looked.  Mrs. Zebra didn't like the way that Mr. Zebra looked. So they talked about it and decided that they liked black, as their color. Mr. Zebra painted the front part of himself black. Mrs. Zebra painted the back part of herself black. They looked at each other and both had an instantaneous thought, "Stripes!"  They said together. They each painted them selves in stripes and went to the party later that night. Everyone at the party loved their new creation of an outfit! They got plenty of compliments and were even complimented by the king of the jungle, Mr. Lion. He thought they were very creative. The party ended late that night, but talk of Mr. and Mrs. Zebra's outfit kept going well into the morning. Soon all the Zebras, in the jungle, were painting them selves in stripes. Soon Zebras all around the world were doing it to. After awhile Mr. and Mrs. Zebra got tired of stripes. But when they tried to wash off their stripes they found that the paint had sunk in well beyond their fur. They couldn't get it off for anything. Soon all the Zebra's started getting tired of stripes. But they couldn't get their's off either! To this day the Zebras still can't get their stripes off. That is why the Zebra has stripes! The End
