Take a hard left and then stop. Look around. It's all there for you to see. See! Across that grayish fog-covered bog? Your other life is over there. Yes. Yes. Yes! We understand it was a tough life. What we don’t understand, if it was so tough, why are you so hell-bent on visiting the caracaras' you left in your wake? Haven’t you had enough? I thought so. Back up and return to yourself. ©November 3, 2011 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |

Perfect, dear Jerry. We should listen to this wise inner voice that gives directions to make us leave behind the past and find again the beauty of our perfect core. Precious reflections from you and from Lori, this morning. Margherita |

We all have an inner voice, Margherita, and for the most part we should listen and heed them. Sometimes it isn't that easy. Thank you for your valuable insight. <><> Lori, I meant to say carcass instead of caracaras. Haha I don't know what they are eight, and I am also afraid to ask. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |

To my surprise the arrow showed a translation in Italian of that word and googling "caracarà" I found out now that it is a beautiful big bird (crested caracarà of the family of falcons).Rapacious, he waits for vultures to open a carcass to feed on it ....  See the relationship is there! Smiles. |

"See the relationship is there!" Fantastic, Margherita! My thoughts thought up a word that I didn't know and was actually wrong for the poem, but now I find that is is a cousin to the word I wanted to use. Amazing. Thank you for following the "caracarà" trail. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |
