Notes About The Poem

scène de ménage (déjà vu!)

 

* The cuckoo is a symbol of unrequited love 

- the Soup Cuckoo -

Jealousy is not the fear of losing
but the feeling that our position is threatened
As wet sand between your toes, unwanted

Sometimes jealousy turns into obsession
There are many wars, love your enemies ... never
We fight for love as a tender and small sparrow
Bitter taste, there is a fly in the soup

Jealousy causes internal erosion and pain...is it worth it?! Of course, one has to fight for love, but not at having to pay too dear a price!! hugs // paul

So much truth said in so few words, I think envy is one of the worst human emotions, excellent poem, brilliant picture, one for my treasure chest.

Very true, Anne-lise:) Proverbs 14:30 - "A sound heart is the life of the flesh, but envy the rottenness of bones"
