The Fool's Journey Through Tarot: 3
The motherly woman
protecting her people.
She leads the Fool
on the next leg of his journey.
She teaches him wisdom.
For once you have knowledge
you must learn to use it.
You become wise
and you live,
and so the Fool continues
on his journey
growing wise as he travels
the distant lands.
Little Fool,
your new found wisdom
will enrich your life.

You have a gem in the making here.
For DUP...it is better in short pieces.
However, I am looking forward to
4, 5, 6...as the Fool in Tarot is not
necessarily little, nor is it a child.
The reason I state this is that I have
read these cards and their interpretations
for a long time.
The Fool is not what we think of as a foolish person. The Tarot were the playing cards when KINGS had "Fools" who could tell them the TRUTH, without suffering the CONSEQUENCES. They were also dressed up like CLOWNS so nothing they said could be taken seriously.
The Fool is an inexperienced person who is constantly being challenged with new experiences and often, because of lack of previous experience - makes mistakes.
They have found in education that failure teaches you more than success. So the Fool is essentially the Teacher of the Tarot. If the Fool comes up OFTEN in a reading, it means that person has a LOT to LEARN.
All that being said...I like your Tarot based poems and I was planning to do some myself...
So nice to meet you
Write on!
