  1. Deep and leaves you thinking. Good read. Happy that I came across your blog.
    I am relatively new to blogging and love it when I come across such work.
    Pls visit my blog. I am 3 posts old here. I am working on a series. Would like to know your views.

  2. Sticks and stones …
    now delivered by drones.

    I meant a vest of protection
    to deflect … unwanted words.
    Sort of like,
    a breastplate of righteousness
    and a shield of faith ?
