Stone, Brick, and Stick by Mike Williams 01/25/2016 @ 9:10 A.M.

Sticks and stones and hard scones, 
I'll take the time for tea. 
And build a house and make it home, 
With words thrown at me. 

Wolves shall come and will go, 
They lose no sleep for sheep. 
When pigs fly I will cry, 
But never let you see me weep. 

I'm stronger than I appear, 
My skin has grown quite thick. 
And stronger still for what I built, 
With stone, brick, and stick.
