Do you dare attempt escape from 'neath the wing's overshadowing span ? Are you saddened by the scars the talons raked across the land ? Do you dare to take up issue ? Should you join in the melee ? Is it best to not protest ? Do you pray for the eagle's prey ? Will you attempt to offer healing ? Should you join in the revolt ? Understand... It's Karma's dealing... And simply watch the great bird moult |

If this is symbolic, I would pray for the prey, but if not, I would love both the eagle and the prey. I suppose that I should do that even if the eagle is symbolic of a person. - Owl |

We rodents do know....the answer to these questions, and to some others, thankfully, but these for sure. Interesting that the two previous posters would be my enemies....though these two are friends....Owl and Sky.... ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> ______________Ratleader______________ |
