Good loading up of words and glad you ended up coming home without the deer. Mother would be proud of you too for doing that, but you tried hard to please her with meat for the table. It just did not work out, but another time another place I say to you.
Very interesting twist to go back in time like that. I liked the line, belly full of birds, and the description of what it took to load the weapon. Lucky deer and lucky Andrew's limey ancestors that she went home...Jerry
I love the story. A very valuable lesson to be learned. One could say, "Tilde, we are not in Kansas anymore." There isn't any honor or glory in taking a life whether human or animal. Peace, Love and Blessings Always, Paul.
Yes indeed many times we shot at the wrong target for the wrong reason, realizing that, made her a hero in my eyes, they both won, the doe and her. Wonderful and alluringly expressed, with much deep meaning, loved it! Jasmin Horst
