That always gets me: how it's just one word, but careless, and even unintended, but it wounds mortally. And I have to be extra careful because of that part that's so true: it is very easily spoken.Monica Sharmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151813715017746959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-76841358915848150172011-01-11T08:13:20.304-06:002011-01-11T08:13:20.304-06:00That created a strong emotional response in me.

Some are adept at opening it and bringing out the best; others are intent to crack it to pieces. <br /><br />My favorite line: "heart / chipped easily / broken blue".Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-86666726849370858462011-01-09T20:46:41.713-06:002011-01-09T20:46:41.713-06:00The most beautiful of fragile shell ...The most beautiful of fragile shell ...S.
