Peril

Treasures fail

to feed the hungry

While wisdom

pries open

the understanding
of greed misspent

    Thank You!!

    Thank You for Your entry: Peril
    This piece tugged hard at Spirit and while I was reading which I did several times~ I kept seeing a rocket ship~ blast off and hearing word: NASA-
    also reference to toilets~ which I remember on the news but also there seems to be an underlining message in re: to material things and its worth like what are the necessities in Life-
    Now I am being shown a pearl in a ring and it is bigger than what I have ever seen~ whether a metaphor or symbolism but it beckons to be looked at closer~ Hearing words: faux pearl
    I am being shown a jewel on a satin type of bed in a box in what looks like a jewelry store~ 14K band- butttttttt St....the store starts with a St and
    Jewelers...I'm being shown its showcase at the window...and a man which looks like a salesman...Hearing name: Martin (what sounds like Martin) Something about appraised~ then hearing reference also to Grandmothers and what sounds like a broach-
    Hopefully that makes some sense
    Powerful images You have brought forth

    These words grabbed and pulled~
    ....understanding of greed misspent
    Unique Voice spoken~

    Thank You for sharing Your Heart also Spirit!
    Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
    **Judging will be done shortly...
    Many blessings too
    and much love~ Desire~*~
