feet of clay
set in stone
and a box of words
where your mouth belongs

Thank You!!
Thank You for Your entry: Lost for Words
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and while I was reading which I did several times~ I kept being shown word: Brilliant
for the images had me chuckling~ I was being shown excerpts from Liar Liar- with Jim Carrey I was being shown word: Anniversary
and reference to restaurant- also fine dining- however getting word: reservations- but in the same swallow- phrase- personality compared to a dead fish Also after reading Your words was getting reference to a mattress- and like the body sitting on it ...bouncing up and done to test buoyancy- and also phrase: Smooth Sailing- with Not in the Cards
Hopefully that makes some sense
Magnificent take on the prompt~
Powerful message & images You have brought forth
These words grabbed and pulled~
feet of clay set in stone...
Unique Voice spoken~
Thank You for sharing Your Heart also Spirit!
Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
**Judging will be done shortly...
Many blessings too
and much love & light~ Desire~*~

With fifteen words you said a mouthful. I know the feeling well. A box of full words just can't seem to fill a pair of empty arms. Good luck in the contest.
Sincerely,
Leo Long
