What Is What

Compressed carbon is called Diamond
Cut land in water is called Island
Beaten copper is Wire
Love bitten man- Lover
Compressed, cut n’ beaten man is Husband

Whoa!! Sad that compressed, cut n' beaten is used to describe husband. They are so much more or at least I think so. Thanks for sharing this one. I guess if looked at it with humor it can be used to describe a husband. Sara K
