A very intelligent poem, dear Irene. It reminds me of a saying on the book-cover from Lieselotte Welskopf-Henrich about Harka:
Red is the blood of the eagle;
red is the blood of brown men,
red is the blood of white men,
red is the blood of black men -
we are all relatives.
Liebe Grüße
Margret

Answer by Irene Beddies (21.03.2014):
Dear Margret, this is one of my rare autobiographical poems I ever wrote. As I had a very happy and protected childhood and got to know the fact with 21 only, I decided not to trace back my roots. I didn't want to hurt the parents I loved. Now I'm glad I did what I decided. It opened a way for me to face people the way the poem describes. You are the first to interprete it in a more general way, which gives the poem a new dimension in my eyes. Thank you very much, I'm glad you did. Cordially Irene

Schöne und sehr naheliegende Gedanken. Letztlich sind wir alle verwandt und "from the same spirit"... Liebe Grüße, Ute

Answer by Irene Beddies (21.01.2012):
Liebe Ute, über Deinen Kommentar habe ich mich sehr gefreut, sprichst Du mir doch aus dem Sinn, wenn ich den Gedanken im Gedicht zunächst beschränkt auf das einzelne Schicksal gesehen habe. Einen schönen Sonntag wünscht Dir und Deinem Hund Felix Irene
