“But fields have eyes and woods have ears, ye wot” – John Heywood. I would say it in reverse: “The woods have eyes and the fields have ears.” j.kiley [My reasoning is sound depending on the fields and depending upon the animals. 😇

I hope what I wrote was taken lightly. Having run away to the woods for safety and having slaved in the fields 7 days a week when I was a child. Have a new poem dedicated to the latter part of the statement. By the time I edit it may include the complete statement.

I always have a feeling that someone is looking at me, since childhood. I feel very uncomfortable, very conscious . Is my mind playing a trick? Or it is my low self esteem.

Why uncomfortable rather than comfortable I find myself wondering.
