OUCH...boy this says a lot in such few words...kinda like a ragdoll feeling huh? But the scarecrow is an important part of that garden you know...a guardian... Ignore those who would clip your wings...fly ever upward...even if it means scorched wings |

What an appropriate metaphor here, kaile, as the scarecrow is the last vestige of an ancient pagan rite of human sacrifice to ensure an abundant harvest. Lots of to think upon, and you accomplished this with just a few lines. Very Well Done!!! |

I'm glad I read this, it DOES say a lot in so few lines. Much insight and depth here. Each reader I'm sure will read something different...maybe. "Every man dies. Not every man truly lives." Braveheart Kathleen |

Kaile, enjoyed the read, but remember don't be type cast as the scare crow. Rise above it. take care, my friend. It's in your eyes a fire that's wild and glorious Unhibited, unfinished in everything I do Let the morning rise like our hearts desire" whipping boy |
