There are happy family memories at each place. Even being at the cemetery, there are good memories mixed with the sadness. <br /><br /><b>Cyn</b>, I'm glad you told me about that verse--the voice of the turtle--I knew he had something he wanted to tell me!<br /><br />I want to read more of your fiction! You do such a good job of describing things to give a sense of place.anniehttp://www.newliferising.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9351429.post-82373163761078403732012-03-25T07:49:17.702-06:002012-03-25T07:49:17.702-06:00My favorite verse in the Bible is a mistranslation...My favorite verse in the Bible is a mistranslation in the KJV: <br /><br /><br /> 12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;<br /><br />Song of Solomon 2:12(KJV)<br /><br />It should say "turtledove" according to experts in language. Iam a poet. I don't subscribe to expert's idea of language. This seems fine and right to me. I hope it says something to you.<br /><br />I found it when Adrian and I moved into this house, our first home to own. <br /><br />I am writing about home place in my fiction right now. I love what you are saying here and that it reminded me of the Song of Solomon verse.Cyn Huddlestonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16698496590225633741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9351429.post-65362315123614349412012-03-24T23:00:33.117-06:002012-03-24T23:00:33.117-06:00I like this.

When you return to these places, how does it feel? <br /><br />Even though most places I've lived were "happy" places, it makes me sad to go back. Don't know why. <br /><br />And I still love the turtle.spookyrachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11652180845736295060noreply@blogger.com
