Beautiful!

detention for me- my homework is coming wadded and wrinkled
the goats ate my paper whilst I was waiting for the bus.
Anyway, here’s a stab at “staid”.
Queen Victoria, a staid woman
ruled England for 63 years
Queenie said, “The important thing is not what they think of me but what I think of them.”
great turnout!
Excellent homework. A++++ Clint wins again over theWon, ie the empty suit.

To defend the Faith, we must be staid

With our fervent prayer

And He’ll deal with ‘Roe-vs-Wade’...
