Since the Edward I biography is a fairly dense read, I grabbed this pretty little volume as a palate cleanser in between ❤️ Arthurian Legends by Rosalind Kerven. It's such an easy read with some beautiful illustrations: I'm halfway through it already! . . . . . #books #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #kingarthur #arthurpendragon #arthurianmyths #arthurianlegends #welshmythsandlegends #bookporn https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm9u-WTtW5a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In the beginning
I was wholeheartedly
pure. Untainted. Innocent.
I was a healer, of
mind, body and spirit.
I had different masks;
Wife, Mother, Sister.
I was all of these,
and now I feel like none.
Who am I?
I am the Healer,
the Enchantress,
the Seductress.
But I am no longer
the once pure Healer;
I now bewitch the innocent,
condemned as I am to
follow the path set out for me -
I beguile the weak, the
ones who cannot resist,
and I use them for my own ends.
I plot and plot
to kill my sister by marriage,
and overthrow the brother
I once held dear.
Did I bear him a
traitorous son,
or was I conflated with
someone else?
I commit treason,
and betray everyone else.
I no longer have the
goodness I was once known for.
But in the end, don't I
still have that one
redeeming quality?
After all, I led my brother to
the Isle of Apples
when he had been
mortally wounded.
And it was there
he was finally able to rest,
waiting for the day when
he could rise again -
when Albion's need is greatest.
So I had been good;
pure, untainted, innocent.
I had been a healer, but
now an enchantress,
a seductress, a
leader to Death.
What am I?
Beautiful evil.
But I was good, in
the end.

The Winter and the Spring
You condemn me,
and curse me, and
spurn me. For I am
that first bite of Winter,
that first fall of snow,
that first morning frost.
I am the chill seeping in
through the crack under
your door, the ice that
oppresses the Earth, the
night that eats away
the daylight hours.
I am the one you warn
your children about;
bundling them up to
keep them warm, to
keep them safe.
You commend him,
and bless him, and
accept him. For he is
that first warmth of Spring,
that first sprout of flower,
that first ray of Sun.
He is the kind breeze
teasing your hair, the heat
that melts the snow, the
day taking back its time.
He is the one you allow
to watch over your children;
wrapped within the warm
rays of the Sun,
free to frolic, and untamed
in their laughter.
But you forget that
Winter gives way to Spring.
You forget that with
coldness, there is warmth.
You forget that with
decay, there is regrowth.
You forget that with
Life, Death with always follow.
But there is no Death
without Life.
There is no good
without evil.
There is no knight
without a villain.
There is no him
without me.
There are no legends
of Arthur without
the shadow of Morgan.
