Maui was a very gifted man he had much strength and power ,
Maui was the most popular out of his four brothers and they were
very jealous of him and his strength, one night the brothers decided
to go fishing without Maui, and just before they set out Maui climbed under
the floor boards as Maui had heard their plans. It was not till they were
in the middle of the ocean that Maui revealed himself to the four brothers
then he took out his magic fish hook (his grandmothers jaw bone ) and
threw it into the ocean. Then suddenly he cried ¨"I have caught something ,
and its big! ¨ then he started to pull it to the surface.Maui told his brothers to
wait while he appeased the God of the sea before cutting open the fish ( the North island )
his brothers did not listen as they were impatient and started cutting ¨ the fish ¨
and that formed the Mountains and the south is Maui´s Waka. what do you think Maui
would of felt when he pulled up the big fish ?
Great story following the legend of Maui, wonderful retelling of the myth.
ReplyDeleteI think Maui would have felt very grateful and honoured, then annoyed that his brothers started to butcher the whale before their God was praised and thanked.
Next time maybe work on paragraphs in your blog.
Keep up the great work.
