Kay Celia
Kung pagsaulan kong basahin sa isip
ang nakaraan araw ng pag-ibig,
may mahahagilap kayang natititik
liban na kay Celian namugad sa dibdib?
Yaong Celiang laging pinanganganibang
baka makalimot sa pag-iibigan,
ang ikinalubog niring kapalaran
sa lubhang malalim na karalitaan.

Order of the Chronicles of Narnia Books
Earlier today, Kuya Andrew was asking me for the order of CS Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia books. I found it hard to remember the order of the books because I didn't read the books in order. And quite honestly, the series' events are quite confusing.
The books were published in the following order:
1) The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe - 1950
2) Prince Caspian - 1951
3) The Voyage of the Dawn Treader - 1952
4) The Silver Chair - 1953
5) The Horse and His Boy - 1954
6) The Magician's Nephew - 1955
7) The Last Battle - 1956
