That query made everyone take a few steps back from the

Dunno if it was an experiment or if my county's representatives ran out of tar to surface the road.
But for one whole week the way to my home looked like this!

Made me ponder that

Grapes were on this branch.
However, the fruit was eaten, devoured for its sweetness, and leaving the twig all bare, and lonely.
Thus, making this sprig useless and into the compost bin.
I want to correlate this twig with our body, which could be termed as a skeleton once we lose our breath and die.
This skeleton is of no use, and will either be burned or buried. All will be remembered is

A Blessing in Disguise
Mortgage over-due. Bank Balance in negative.
John is sitting on his dry land that has disintegrated due to lack of rains.
Now he has only one hope.
