We have a saying – You’ve made a knot with your fingers that you’ll not untie with your teeth. M __________ Marie Marshall author/poet/editor Scotland http://mairibheag.com http://kvennarad.wordpress.com
That’s really an amazing quote, especially how much it fits this poem. Thank you for telling me! Do you mind if I open the poem with this from now on?

Well I have been assuming it’s Scottish, but I believe it’s actually Irish.

Not in the slightest – I have no copyright on it. 🙂
Yeah I can see exactly what you mean! Love it!
