I really like this and remember being told this often as a young person. I think you have it right-throw caution to the wind and go for it! All the best to you in the contest.

"the joy of putting
all your eggs in one basket...
caution to the wind"
I like your metaphor that taking a big cance is like throwing caution to the wind.

I really like your poem/picture combo. With Easter coming soon, I can easily picture my 10-year-old granddaughter cramming all the eggs she and Grandma dyed in one basket. Rod

Such bravery in the face of an old adage! This is very funny. You have created a double thrill -- actually gathering the eggs up to be hoarded, counted and secured, and then risking losing them all at once. You are living on the edge, dear Mystery Writer.

I love the visual image and the picture from your words. I like how you took a cliche', threw caution to the winds, and found the joy of taking the risk they say you shouldn't take.
Wonderful!
